Finally King's Bounty Crossworlds is available for pre-order. Compared with GamersGate, it's a lot cheaper on Steam.

For Crossworlds alone, Steam is USD9.99 plus a free copy of The Legend as pre-order bonus. While on GamersGate the price is USD16.99 and u get 250 blue points as pre-order bonus which is equivalent to USD0.25 lols

i will just wait until Crossworlds goes for sale. since i already bought King's Bounty Gold during summer sales, this pre-order bonus seems 'extra' for me.

Great for me, as i always get a transaction fees when i buy a game from Steam.

Say like i buy a 50USD Steam Wallet, i only get charged by the transaction fees once even if im buying 50 1USD for teh lulz. Compared to the transaction fees multiply by 50 if i didnt use Steam Wallet and buy the same 50 1USD game for teh lulz.

Steam is pretty behind in implementing this feature. The other DD providers have had this for quite some time (BioWare, GG & others) but the question now is, what kind of security measures that Steam will put up to protect those funds in case your Steam account was hacked / compromised?

Yeah... just realized that I posted the same thing in the same thread. doh.gif
QUOTE(talexeh @ Sep 11 2010, 08:50 AM)
At last! This feature is inevitable since the other DDs such as BioWare & others have implemented this feature long ago. I'm curious though, where do you get this news? I checked the Steam News section but found nothing about it... or perhaps I didn't backtrack long enough.

EDIT: Read about it in the Steam forum. smile.gif

As raised in the forum itself, what is the security feature that will protect those funds? I'm sensing more phishing websites coming up soon. Either that or more scammers will be prowling us with fake links & stuff.

From what I read though Crossworld by itself contains the content of the two previous games now? (Vanilla + Princess)
So that offer kinda intrigued me really...

No, what I meant is that if you buy Crossworld ALONE, it already has the content of the original King's Bounty from what I read.
So I didnt see the point to give the King's Bounty for free as an "offer".

That's what I read on the RPS review if I am not wrong

Hmm... but if we refer to the publisher's website, it doesn't seem that way. hmm.gif

I seriously think that the previous pricing was a mistake. It's kinda weird to have a new game going so low & even includes another game in the package! Whoever bought it prior to the price alteration must be ROFL now. sweat.gif

EDIT: Yup, it was an error on pricing: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/show...d.php?t=1430925

Ok, that was my bad, I re-found the RPS review and it's actually Armored Princess original campaign that seems to be included in Crossworld, not the original King's Bounty. Sorry about that, it was late and I didnt sleep much in the last week ^^

Review on RPS for anyone interested:

RPS Review of Crossworlds

So basically getting the offer Crossworlds + Kings's Bounty for free would make you get the whole 3 games in one bundle, pretty good deal I would say

Now I am just confused on the "requires Armored Princess to play" thing...

I think the version released by Steam doesn't include AP (Armored Princess). Just run through the Steam forum & read that those without AP will not be able to purchase Crossworlds. Quoting 1 of the comments in RPS:

It will have both. There are three versions (depending on the market, i.e. county), the cheapest one requires KBAP and is the best for people who have invested in the game already and it’s an EXPANSION, the middle one has KBAP included (STANDALONE, or base+expansion if you wish) and the deluxe version, most expensive, has even KBTL, the first game included. There is a modified campaign with KBAP, and two new campaigns (one with male hero, one with Amelie from KBAP). And editor.

Thanks for sharing. My lousy router a linksys WAG200G which I bought about 2 years ago, does not have any firmware update. So now, it is gonna be constant restart and relog if I want steam to work.

To those who bought Blood Bowl - How about making a LYN league?

(I actually bought it for $20 before this on some shady keysite, lol).
