    I'll sticky this in an attempt to curb the inevitable hailstorm of questions once the game goes live . Good idea Vuk .

    You can disable steam in game, but I can not find a way to simply turn off the "welcome" note.

    Yeah, I got a Steam question regarding localization. I just read recently that when you purchase games online on Steam the downloadable version will only be in the language of the country you live in. I.E. if you live in Germany you will automatically download the German version, since it analyzes your IP adress. Now, since I move around in an english community and always feel that some things get lost through translation, I want my game to be english, hence I buy it overseas.

    Now the question is what happens to my English game once it comes into contact with Steam. I'm guessing the first activation will be alright, but what about patches? I understood that Steam updated automatically. Will I only recieve the German patches then? Does anybody have any experiences with these kinds of things?

    Cheers!

    Set the game's language through games list > ETW > Properties > Language. Steam will take care of the rest.

    Incidentally, Steam will give German users low-violence versions of most games even when there's no legal requirement to do so. There's no way around it short of manual patches.

    My steam question is regarding mods.

    How are these going to work when steam monitors everything?

    Does it mean the mods must go through steam as well?

    I see a mods section on there…
