DEFCON

Post by **Grimmie** » September 29th, 2006, 11:19

Ordered it yesterday and got a 10% Discount, so it only cost me a couple of quid.
Looks good, based on wargames and I've heard some pretty good personal reviews.
Plus it has nukes, and it's made by UK based Introversion, makers of Uplink and Darwinia.

Anyone else wanna fork out a couple of quid and try the multiplayer out with me?

It's been released. Message of warning;
Before you play, allow it to your firewall.
The first thing it does is authenticate itself.
I'm having to re-install because the only method of validation afterwards is CD key.

And you don't get a CD key with steam.
Hohum.

PS.

That doesn't seem to work.
Shitfuck! Will send angry words to steam.

tried restarting steam or rebooting?

Or manually logging out of Steam and back in again. I had a problem with TFC that was solved with that.

LOLS!

It's understandable I guess.
Releasing a game to the masses all at the very same time would be quite hard to deal with. Digital Distribution eh? Still, what can I expect for a pretty looking game that only set me back a few quid?
