I think they mean that the game is released Dec 5th, and will appear on Steam in Feb. 2008.

This might be a regional difference. For myself, it says coming December 5th in both above the trailer and in the game details.

Thank you Petroglyph for being here in the dark ages of RTS gaming! May your bright torch lead the way for other developers led astray. You make me happy as long as you stay alive, and I will dedicate my life to thee to make this dream come true!

By that logic, everyone that plays CounterStrike has a virus?
I'm pretty sure steam will not give a virus, or noone would use it?

Steam is safer than BT or the like, definitely.

Steam doesn't distribute computer viruses. Steam is a digital distribution application, not a Peer-to-peer application.

Steam does not give you viruses, your dad is paranoid and didn't do his research.

Of course not trusting everyone on the internet is a good idea but big services and corporations are nearly always okay. Just remember that they're rolling in the cash and have a reputation to uphold.

CounterStrike is a virus by itself :)
One can get so addicted to it, that it disrupts normal human operation ;)

Are you sure it isn't a regional difference? When I visit the page it says "Coming
December 13, 2007".

haha id say microsoft does a better job than a lot of companies... you might not like some of their products/services but most of of them are decent or better, thats why they are such a large corporation.

On topic, my steam says dec 13th, so it must be regional.

Mine says February 2008 too :-(. I cant believe it, thats 2 months later than the US one?!

Is it possible to buy the US Version from Steam? i realy dont want to wait 2 more months.

It wouldnt make any sense if all european people would have to wait 2 more months just to get the same release on steam? They are selling already games in english language to german people.

And realy, i dont want some crapy translation, i love the voices in the US version!

I think im gona using a US Proxy server, so steam will think im from the US and than i pay with paypal to get 100% US :lol:

edit: I played a bit around and now im able to use an proxy from the USA and than to configure Steam, so it realy things im from US. Now im getting the US release date, aviable on steam at: 13. dezembre :D

If you want an manual to get Universe at War in the next 2 days, even if youre not from US, drop me a PM.

I hope it isnt illegal?!
