I don't think so, no.

I think the Steam CD key also works on ED's site. I am not positive, but I read that somewhere.

Can anyone confirm this?

I am tempted to get this, though I would have preferred A-10C. But after wasting money on CloD I feel this is a chance to get a new flight sim for not much money.

You can. But not from steam - you can get the BS2 upgrade on EDs Site.

Fly BS1 once - install BS2 Upgrade and make lots of fiery holes in the ground smile

Just asked on ED's forum. Yes, you can buy the game from Steam and then download it from ED's site:

Then you can buy BS2 if you wish to install over that.

Apologies I may have said that in error - I am not certain you can download it from EDs site - I've only just recalled that the Steam version of BS1 did not contain the same protection system. Apologies.

I know you can DL from ED for Warthog, but BS1 was different.

Thanks for the correction. Is there anyone else who can confirm this? Black Shark is one of the titles I do not want on Steam. Especially if I am switching from FC2 to BS during an MP game.
