How does this work with Steam? If I buy this boxed package thingy, once I get it can I just put some key into Steam and get the whole thing off there?

The point of the boxed copy is to save having to download the files from steam, other than that the online install of the boxed copy appears to be indentical to the Steam download version. I bought the boxed copy for my brother as he has a monthly bandwidth quota and a 4GB download would bite a chunk out of that. Myself I downloaded the whole thing from steam which took about 2 hours with a 6Mbit connection. We both play online on the same servers and both have to sign in to Steam to play online.

I bought a boxed copy specifically because I dislike Steam and what's the first thing I see when I open the box? "This is a Steam game." Automatically three stars off any review I might write for completely failing to disclose it requires unwanted 3rd party software.

hi, is the code. you need to download the game from your steam account after using this code. (sorry for my poor english)

You don't need the disk.. and its u play instead of steam! You install it with the disk and after you should not need the disk.

It's real product package and We will ship out. you need to activate the code through internet and steam account. There might be update for the game.

It has a key which allows you to add it to your steam library after installation. I believe I downloaded the game files with amazon but it is also now in my steam library.

Yes. Don't waste time downloading this from Amazon, just use the code on steam to add the game.

Yes, if you buy the one that says (download) amazon will send you a code within seconds to redeem it on steam. (Sent to your email)

I bought this game a while back and did it through Steam, however I'm fairly confident that you are getting steam key with purchase.

It connects to steam to install. It's a steam game, i.e., you cannot play with your family member or friends with one purchase. If you want multiplayer games, each person has to buy a separate copy, which stinks big time!!

you do not need to be connected to steam to play after install. just tried it and was able to play. it will come up with a message saying it can not connect to steam and will give you a button to press "play game" click this and it will launch the game. Happy railing! :-)

You will need a Steam account to play it. In order to play, you need to put the CD inside to install the game into the computer that way you don't have to keep putting the CD in the computer to play it.

You can add the game to Steam using the product codes that come with it (did this myself) and then install it via Steam in the future without need for the physical discs or keys. Not sure if that will allow you to play on Mac, but hopefully Google can help you with that!

The game auto downloads to the stam interface, there are probably other buying options that aren't connected to steam though.

When u buy the download, you have to replace the .exe with a non steam version. A quick Google search and you should find a forum or something that should point you in the right direction
