It's also showing up on Steam now, but no option to pre-order it yet.

I expect it to be everything RO2 was not - namely, functional right out of the box.

Thanks for the heads up. Prefer getting it from GamersGate than Steam as there is less hassles with mods and updates. Coming from a smaller foreign developer I would not be surprised if there were some delays with updates for the Steam version compared to the retail version. A downloadable version from GamersGate (or the Bohemia Interactive store) is essentially the same as the retail version and will update using the same patches released by the developer for retail copies.

I'll probably be buying from Gamersgate. In my region, GG usually releases a game a few hours or even a day earlier than we get it on Steam.


I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.

Looking at the countdown on Steam it will release at 6pm on Friday 25th! So I guess I'll be getting from Gamersgate too.

No, it's not a Steamworks game, if you get from Steam you DL from Steam if from GG then you DL from there etc.

You can often use the serial number you get from GamersGate to download from Steam. I've done that with a few games in the past.

It's the 26th for Aussies, so yeah GamersGate is definitely looking good...

Only if it states that on the Gamersgate page of the game, which it doesn't in this case.

BI's own store is also a decent alternative.

Play.com just took my money. I pre-ordered it, for only €20. Hope now they ship it too.


Airplanes are now built to carry a pilot and a dog in the cockpit: the pilot's job is
to feed the dog, and the dog's job is to bite the pilot if he touches anything...

I cancelled my pre-order from Play as they are not known for rushing newly released games out, even though it was £5 cheaper.
