By the way, you can probably install from the disk if you have a disk. Check out the steam support page.

I could have bought a disk?
Anyway, I'm after the supporter edition. Which is only on the BI store. So...

I don't know if you can have disks, just that if you CAN buy one, you don't have to download it.

I don't think you can buy a disk, sorry :)

I got it through the BIS store, and it's also the top seller on Steam at the moment.

It plays really nicely. We just did a little launch party at Folk ARPS, and it has much better visuals for similar performance. I am very, very curious as to how it will hold up with lots of AI. That's my main concern, as I've already had it dip into <20fps in a relatively small mission. Anyways, here's to hoping :)

The BIS store is down because apparently they didn't predict the flood of traffic and so they've taken it down for maintenance. I'm not sure if I can believe that.

Welp, it turns out that the BIStudio store only sells the Supporter Edition. Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of money, so I'm going to just have to buy from Steam. Sorry, BIStudio, but you don't get all my moneys.

Got it on steam. I wanted a disk version, or at least a steam free version from the BI store but since both of those are completely out of the question for me now I figured I'd get it while it's cheap.

Not looking forward to wade through my steam friends list again just to play a damn game.

Delete all of your Steam friends and/or just ignore them.
I have something like 3 friends on Steam and I barely talk to any of them apart from the one I know in meatspace.
