Quoting: PlintslchoSadly, multiplayer seems to be Steam only now. But I guess since the majority of gamers use Steam anyway it's easier this way for the devs.

we had a lot of piracy which is to expect for a completely DRM-free game but the problem was that the pirates often caused chaos on the servers, like teamkilling en masse, etc. So the only way was to have a steamID check. Kinda sad for the legit players who want to play it outside of Steam but those are by far the minority, probably not even 0.5% of the playerbase.

Quoting: ungutknutSo this actually looks quite interesting, considering the -50% it's really tempting to buy it. But many people criticize that the servers (probably just european servers?) are empty... is that true?

As you can see there are also US servers.

Quoting: Fenix2412Sadly I couldn't get these mods to work. They either crash instantly after I start loading or after 15% of loading.

Hi Fenix2412,

I have to admit that we didn't test much the functionality of the mods under linux that much but we will have a closer look at it. Sorry for the inconveniences!

hmm good point. Actually when you log in and buy the game the standalone download link appears. It will also appear in the linux games list as soon as the branch release is activated (shouldn't take too long). Then you'll be able to see it even if you didn't buy the game ;)
The demo is for now only on the game's website. It will be available on Desura also.
And yes, the game will also be released on Mac but that will probably take a few more months as we don't have the money to buy a mac (yet).

A linux version of the upcoming version 0.76 is finally done and has been submitted to Desura!
The game should be there within the next 2 days, depending on how fast Desura is.
A linux demo will follow, probably before xmas.
