To accommodate this, we’ll be making the standalone PC client available for download at 5pm on Thursday, December 5th (PST) Last edited by Phlier#2565 on Dec 5, 2024, 5:24:41 PM	Posted by Phlier#2565 on Dec 5, 2024, 5:15:25 PM Quote this Post

I would really not expect a Steam preload. Steam doesn't allow preloads of games that are considered in Early Access, never has. Last edited by weirdough42#7856 on Dec 5, 2024, 5:23:39 PM	Posted by weirdough42#7856 on Dec 5, 2024, 5:23:23 PM Quote this Post
