Hey guys,

so that game has been disabled for purchase for a long time now.. does anyone know if it's gonna be back? I reckon there is "only" some kind of quarrel between EA and Valve since it's not gone for good.. ? Would love to own that game.

Thanks!

If something from EA is disabled / removed, its gone. EA left a number of games on Steam after the disagreement which lead to Valve removing Dragon Age 2 for a bull**** excuse (offsite DLC continues to be used by other games yet only EA was effected by the new requirement, so I'm not going to be convinced otherwise), but they have since left Steam as a store to sell their games.

This one is possibly related to game keys.

Do we know if DLC purchased within games and through other means for Steam games (outside of steam keys) don't give Valve a piece of the cake? In many cases steam games have different builds, and making it so that Valve gets 30% of any purchase through these builds should not be overly hard. Valve most likely don't want in game purchases to be a way for developers to circumvent them getting money for DLC purchases, but as long as it's not done like that, they probably don't object.

AFAIK you can't even buy it on Origin, as EA totally killed support for Battlefield 2.
