dundalkfc Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 i have to say im still having hiccups with steam. first it was fm09 not installing, then the patches were arseways and wouldnt work. i was really reluctant to play fm2010 after last years exerience. but seeing as somene bought it for me ill give it a crack. just not looking forward to setting it up again what ever happened to the good old days when ya could just throw in the disc, install the game and play. or even just typing a code like some other pc games. thats all it took. no internet connection, no steam no crap. just easy gaming!

anagain Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 You can just chuck in the disk and play. You'll just have to keep it in. You won't need the internet either. Why don't you install it with Steam, see how it works and then complain if you have problems? It sounds to me like you've made up your mind about Steam though. Really never had any problems with what I think is quality software. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinso Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Ive used Steam for the first time with this year's version of FM, and I'vbe been delighted with it. Not had a single issue/problem with it at all, as yet, and I installed it about a week after the game was released. As anagain says, you don't have to install through Steam if you have the DVD, you can install "the old fashioned way" it just means you have to have the DVD in the drive when you're playing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I'll have to shadow what anagain has said. For me, i've had no problems with Steam whatsoever. I bought the boxed game last year and it worked fine. This year i bought and installed entirely through Steam with absolutely no issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would rather carry a DVD drive around with me than go that way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swisso Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Steam had it's problems when it was first released over 5 years ago, but has come on leaps and bounds since then. I was in the "i prefer to have a DVD in my hand" camp, but the sheer convenience of Steam and the games i play, wins hands down for me and i moved to Steam a couple of years back.

Location should and will stay as it is! Just curious, but how many newspaper reports/commentators/sports reports have you heard since the name change that have referred to it as sportsdirect@stjames'park? None i'm guessing Steam didn't use Uniloc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
