    Unfortunately this is the retail copy and not a digital download but, as the game is steamworks integrated, I imagine you can just enter the serial code that comes with it into Steam if you like to keep your collection all in one place as I do.

    Was curious about this game for a while and, at that price, you can't really go wrong.

    Still seems about £7.98 too much.

    Really? Not even a small community still sticking to it? There's a free DLC map pack coming soon, hoping that brings back some players or I just wasted £7.98.... Hardly bought it for the singeplayer that's for sure :|

    EDIT: Yeesh, it's not even in the top 100 games played - must be less than 400 players a day

    Sigh. This game looked so cool before it was out. It's a sad thing to see a game die so quickly, no matter how shitty it was, people still put time and effort into making it.

    Far worse games still have devoted multiplayer communities, even if just small ones. Will I at least be able to find the odd game or is it really that dead that literally noone is playing?

    @Vitor: From what I hear, it's literally impossible to join games with the max number of players, you'll usually only get a handful.

    Had no idea it was that bad - just cancelled my order. Tight on money as is and would rather have that go towards something like From Dust when it gets released on PC instead.

    Major bummer. Really liked the look of a lot of the ideas they were trying to implement in this game.

    If you're playing PC, you can search for servers.  Sadly, there's only ten or so with more than three people in them, but those with people have a dedicated player base, so you'll almost always be able to play with others.  Still, it's no huge hit, or anything.
     
    I enjoy the game, and I really hope Bethesda or Splash Damage or whoever is controlling marketing for it will be smart and put it on a Steam sale soon, especially with the promise of free DLC...  That should add in a handful of new people, I pray.
