Well, the best solution would be to allow the release on all sites. As it stands now, the people who pre-ordered at GamersGate, Impulse, etc. not only paid more, but also have to wait a week longer. Sure, I could cancel my GG pre-order and buy it at Steam, but I'm quite happy with GG and this isn't their fault.

Yep they should release it everywhere for now because of steam's fail and it would be nice to hear an opinion from someone who actually works for 1C.

Guys, this came to us as a complete surprise - Steam releasing the product at a wrong price and before the official date. We are trying to fix that, but weekend doesn't help a lot.

Steam has now fixed the price back to 19.99

I've just bought AP and Crossworlds on Steam. The prices seem to be correct, and Crossworlds expansion is not yet available for download. So it seems that they've fixed it. I hope that September 17th everything will go much more smoothly

If they've fixed that maybe they will disable the already downloaded and installed games. They can do it, I think. They were doing such things previously.

EDIT: Yes, they did it.

Sorry to say but people who already downloaded it can atleast play it via offline mode. Sucks for people who bought the game from somewhere else or later though... i wonder if the guy who opened the early access got fired lol...

Well, I tried and I can't. When I started in offline mode, the game disappeared from list, and did not return after going online again. Also, when I try to start kb.exe in offline mode steam says that the game "is not ready to be played in offline mode", and when I try to start it in online mode then steam takes me to the store page. It's okay with me, as long as it will be available on the day of premiere.

I don't believe they fired the guy responsible for it, if they fired these guys every time that happens they would be seriously understaffed by now

Like megakill said, it probably doesn't help the crisis any that this happened so close to the weekend, or for the russians perhaps on the weekend, but I imagine that fingers will be pointed and that heads will roll.

In that way I really hope it was Steam that F'ed it up, that way the 1c/katauri guys can get compensated and don't have to punish their own people.

Also, would it be in bad taste of me to ask whether anyone has been able to raise their Adrenaline level past 2 in the Orcs on the March campaign? It seems it gets rooted at level 2, maybe you need spells or something.
