So, is there already a Total War Community on Steam or even a Orgah Community? If not, why haven't we made one yet. I think this would be a great way to battle against all my fellow Orgahs!

From the description of how the Steam client will behave on someone's PC, I'd say this is the best of a "not so happy - not so happy" solution for Developers and End Consumers alike.

It doesn't invade your machine, it sits in the task bar if you let it (you can tell it not to fire up at start up) and if you don't want it there you can exit it from your processes and play E:TW off line.

You can then fire it up every now and then when you come onto the Orgh and see there is a new update to be down loaded.

It will then do it's update thing, you will then say things like 'oooh' and 'haaaa' as the new patch from CA fixed a few bugs and balancing issues.

You can then turn it off and play E:TW to your hearts content.

Me likey likey!!

I would never ever allow anything by Microsoft to autoupdate .... ( never did and never will ) ...
( and I m not a big fan of autoupdate in general .. )

Steam on the other hand is another matter ...

I ve been using steam since HL2 got released on several machines both under xp and vista and

never had any problems with it ...

so dont worry about it ...

the steam Empire total war community seems to be a bunch of kids whining about paying extra money for special editions of a game. i mean really, its a special addition if u dont want it dont buy it, but dont whinge about paying extra to get more.
