Ufnal Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I've got a problem that I think more people on these forums say. I really want TEW 2016, but the standard price is a bit too much. Now with the Black Friday sale it's a bit more affordable. But before this sale I planned to wait for the Steam release, because fighting with a security system is one of my least favourite things and I'd really prefer to not have to dabble in E-license. Mr. Ryland posted about a month ago about the new TEW coming out on Steam near the end of the year, so now I am torn - do I buy now, or wait for Steam release? One particular deal breaker for me would be information on whether there are plans to allow migration from E-license to Steam once the games come out on the second platform. If so, I wouldn't have to hesitate. Is there a piece of info about that I have missed? Or would anybody from GDS be so kind as to comment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I think you've misread something; it is TEW2013 that is scheduled to be on Steam next, not TEW2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Ryland Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 As far as I know, GDS will try to continue the current system whereby there will be keys available to elicense users for a limited time after the Steam launch. We can't make any guarantees or comment further as it would be up to the Steam publisher, not us, and obviously any keys they do make available are a kindness on their part given that they have no connection to Elicense and so are actively losing potential income every time they give an elicense user a free key.

Arlie Rahn Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Adam's right, I get a limited number of Steam keys from the publisher to do an "amnesty" with for current owners. It's first come, first serve for those. There is no plan to release TEW2016 on Steam right now, but TEW2013 should be released by the end of the year.

Christ Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Any plans for WMMA 4 being released on steam anytime soon? I've been checking the forums as often as i can but haven't seen any news on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 There are no plans for it at the moment so it's unlikely to be any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
