No.

But hopefully when it's released on steam we'll be able to activate it on steam.

As said in the OP, you will have to wait until the end of June for it to be on Steam.


No offense Milly but I think I'd rather hear it from one of those red shirts :)


All you need to do then is check the Blood Bowl forum - Siam explained all about why Slann won't be in the game.

I wouldn't preorder it on a hunch that that serial would work on Steam - you'll just end up annoyed if it doesn't work. Either preorder, and don't use Steam, or wait for it to be released on Steam, so you know it'll work.

I think you might have replied to a different post as your answer does not make sense :)

True but I have pre-ordered it and it would be 'nice' if it worked on steam as well. I certainly wont be annoyed if it doesn't work on steam but Cyanide are publishing the game themselves so have the chance to do things that Focus would never do...

However, note that it isn't released on Steam until after the actual release date, and that the Cyanide store would then have to provide Steam codes, which won't actually exist yet, for the game to work on Steam. Given that, plus the fact that the non-Steam versions of both BB and LE couldn't be activated on Steam, and the evidence would suggest that copies not purchased on Steam would not be able to be activated on Steam.

Either way, I prefer not having it on Steam - means I don't have to wait a day or two for Steam to patch it, rather than just downloading the patches as soon as they're released for non-Steam versions.

Other games have serial numbers that work on steam (obviously once it's released on steam) - perhaps cyanide have had the forethought to do that as well :)


Milly, remember this bit? Unless you actually work for Cyanide then all you've got is a hunch..

So how about you stop with the theory and let someone that actually knows have a go at answering.

And yes, I know I'm crap at sugar coating it for you but thats life :)

As for Steam, yes, the way it updates is really quite rubbish as (the way I understand it) it doesn't actually 'patch' the files it just replaces them which can lead to huge and unnecessarily long updates.

Well it's been a week now since the question was asked and no redshirt has stepped into the breach, so it looks like Milly is the best you're gonna get!

Which is normally about as useful as a trapdoor in a canoe :)

Nevertheless, no answer from Cyanide but Milly at least tries to be helpful and you throw it back in his face. And he does have certain insights from his time as a Focus admin over on the BB Forums as well as being a generally switched on guy.
