Who's waiting for the Steam version?

Maybe they’ll release their first patch with the Steam version.

#82

Why wait! Download now…enjoy…play…then download with steam and play all over again!

#83

Sounds good to me!

It’s been alluded to a few times. For example:

Of course that’s definitely no guarantee, but still. Also patching would make sense.

#84

I can’t wait tell it comes to Steam I’'m already on my second play through.

#85

I hope the achievement achieved are still valid when I move over to the Steam Version

#86

Probably not, but really, how hard were they to obtain? Snark achievement is the only one I found difficult, and that was mostly because of the Snark shortage.

#87

The most difficult one was taking the purple hat to the Portal…

Mine was rolling away and of course, felt in the water and such …

#88

Both of these may well be fixed in the Steam version. The odd physics with the Secret Hat and the Lambda Core portal, and the shortage of Snarks…

#89

Ah yes, I forgot about those posts for a moment there. I guess some very strong-minded people just want to start off their BM experience with the (first) improved version of the game.

Personally I didn’t wait and started playing as soon as I could. Encountered a lot of bugs and stuff but nothing too immersion- or game-breaking.

#90

Just go into skill.cfg and increase the number of Snarks, that’s what I did.

#91

Some of us don’t have the SKILLS… to edit skill.cfg.

#92

that is what I am hoping for, that the steam version will be slightly updated and tweaked.

I am looking forward to the steam version for this reason

#93

Isn’t everyone? The question is just “Are you WAITING?”

#94

Not really waiting no, I have the mod, so…

For me it doesn’t matter if it’s by Steam or any other way

#95

Fair enough.

#96

I’m waiting for the steam release to replay it.

#97

Sounds like a plan.

#98

I’m waiting for Xen to replay it. And to play Ep2. I want to do a complete HL marathon :slight_smile:

#99

Sounds good to me. And who knows? By the time the Xen levels come out, we may have HL2:Ep3 or HL3.

#100

Seems unlikely, but that would be awesome.

I really hope the release through Steam will make it possible to make mods of BM.
