I wouldn't worry too much about Steam itself. Steam is a digital distributor/game community, nothing else. It has all the Steam benefits, like updating, patching and unlimited downloads etc. but it doesn't grip you by the balls like 777 does with Rise of Flight.

My Steam versioned IL-2 is just like IL-2 hardcopy and the only real difference is that I need to find my game folder in the Steam folder. That's it. Doesn't matter to me if CoD:IL-2 needs a one time activation through Steam/SolidShield or from the game itself.

Correct same thing for me, I use ultrapack for my IL2 copy (thru steam) no problems at all..

Steam is very nice. Never had a problem with it.

In fact I like the autopatching, the soft DRM and I also like cheat-protection.

Of course I also like the fact that the developers get's 70% of the money earned from Steam as opposed to 30-40% on conventional methods. IMHO Maddox Games deserves the money more than UBI, but your opinion may differ?
