It's not Steams fault AoA, for example I have the games Skyrim and Empire Total war on DVD. Both of those games installs from the DVD but they activate through steam and update through steam, the best thing though is that if your DVD breaks for some reason, you can still install your game by download from Steam. It's a great system, you're provided with game updates automatically and you can install your game(s) on multiple computers.

Problem wasn't steam, problem was that the publisher (ubisoft and 1c) for some unknown and stupid reason decided to release a steam activated game DVD without the actual game on it, don't ask me why because it's the first game I've heard of to do this.

Once you've installed CloD you just have to backup your "\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover" folder.

After you've set up a new rig you just have to download and install steam. Then put your backed up "\steamapps\common\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover" back to where it belongs and you're done.

Things are easy. Really.

No need to buy a DVD version.

Thanks guys!

But I was not looking for a backup.. I back it up like Foobar said.. When I do a PC cleanup.. That is after a year or so things get so messy.. Or if I am having issues that no one else seems to be having.. Than I re-format the drive and reinstall the OS and do a clean install of all the games.. You know to do the registry and all that goes with it. A truly clean slate

Oh snap! Didn't know that, I took for granted that it would install of the DVD primarily like my other steam activated games, oh well silly me.

Like I said.. Frecon STEAM!

after Luthier said they will not work on new planes for CLOD I would say 10 bucks is too much for this unoptimized unfinished (and wont be finished) ****

They drop the price, talking a sequel that you may or may not be required to pay for and that will supposedly have fixed all the problem with the original game. I don't care what you guys say about this game, it was sold screwed up and it's still screw up and they are already talking about a sequel before this version is fixed? A sequel is a continuation of a prior event or in this case game, it adds new content if you will, it's not a repair for the previous version. I for one won't pay for a sequel to this game until they make this game do what was promised in their advertising of this game. To think in April I paid nearly $60 USD for this game, billed as the best flight sim ever and 9mos later they are selling it for under $10 USD. I will not say we've been rip-off or we've been screwed, I'll say we've been XXXX. TC
