I understand you well, Kg. My case is probably worse than yours, as now my game froze within five minutes from launch, whichever thing I do or don’t do. As I don’t have your competence, I’ll wait patiently for next patch.

CoD is great, in my opinion the greatest sim ever. As for Steam... I avoid any comment, cause you would be forced to ban me, probably...
Cheers!

If it doesn't update just verify the game in its properties / local files tab.
Then any old or missing files will be patched. Make sure you do this with the account that you purchased the international version on. It should patch to that then.

If that doesn't work - delete the clientregistry.blob file in your C:\Program Files\Steam folder and restart steam.

No need to re-install games ever with steam.

If you created a steam account and selected russia for your country- its possibly gonna give you that version.

Steam works fine - I have used it for over 5 years and have 97 games that use steam without any problem. (damn xmas sales lol)

When xmas comes around and you are buying games for $2 or $3 that are normally $50-60 or $90 in the retail stores - you will understand why people like steam.
Also it has the best anti cheat system with VAC.

Thank you, Ibanez.

I tried to follow your suggestions, but things get worse. Now the game freezes at the first command, such as “fly this mission”, or open that map in full mission builder.

I envy you and all the happy Steam customers, but this sounds to me as a gross disservice as, for the moment, I paid for nothing.

I’ll wait for the release on dvd, hoping to have better luck, but I fear problems will start again with future patches.

I have one game via Steam that no matter what I did it would freeze on start in Steam. I literally tried every 'fix' in the book - nada. All my other Steam games worked fine but not that one.

Then I upgraded from XP to Win7-64 and it worked perfectly right away. Go figure...
