AO on Steam
Re: AO on Steam
Time for AP to go to the Arete area with new characters and meet new recruits ! GO everyone !
Re: AO on Steam
It's the OLD engine?? Geez no wonder they had to get Valve to make changes for it. What a stupid decision.
Re: AO on Steam
The launcher (which is what needed Steam modifications) is the same for both. And there are reports you can kludge the new engine to work in Steam if you know what you're doing.
Given all the crashes in the new engine, the decision is no surprise, but sad. As to me this says FC isn't looking at fixing the crash bugs in the new engine.

Re: AO on Steam
Yep my thoughts as well, the new client seems to have been abandoned.
