Article w/pictures

From one of the guys who worked on TA and SC.

Looks similar, but cartoony, probably because they're mock ups.

*Video gaming life.

Ya'll need to stop playing Warcraft 2.

I've said multiple times I would play another multi game.

I am not sure what the "Warcraft 2" reference means, but we are playing the most popular game on the planet.

You're married to your figurines as well?

ZING!

And yeah, if you're a hardcore gamer, and you're not playing LoL, it's because you're playing DOTA2.

No other excuses accepted.

Available on Steam today.

For $90 and it's only in Alpha.

Apparently, it'll be $60 when it hits Beta in September.

Normal prices will apply when the game is actually released.

For clarity, the prices mirror the prices for promised alpha and beta access on the Kickstarter. The more you kicked in the better the reward. And to keep from screwing those people over, they have to follow that same pricing on Steam.

I backed this game and have it on Steam already, but I also backed another project that tossed it in as a stretch goal. So, I have a key if anyone wants it. It's a bit convoluted, but here's the info and how to make it show up on Steam:

Code: Select all

ACCESS ANNIHILATION
Here is your unique key to access the game:

mbu-fhy1-tqn

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1. Download and run the launcher here: https://store.uberent.com/download/pa
2. Login with your UberNet account - Create one if you don't already have one.
3. Enter your access key listed above.
4. Commence Annihilation.

Are you a Steam user? If so, you can convert your key to a Steam key once you have registered the key in your UberNet account.  For other questions, see: http://www.uberent.com/pa/faq/

WANT TO GIFT IT?
Want to gift your exclusive copy of the game and make someone else’s holiday special? Great idea! Simply provide them with the code and the instructions above. Just don't lose your code or distribute it to unintended persons.

The faq tells me I can convert my code to a steam account after i register with uberent, and it gives me the first step (linking the accounts), but it doesn't tell me how to activate the game through steam, after that.

I don't see it as beta testing. I see it as pre-ordering it, but being aloud to play it now if I want to.
