Just me 2 cents
but I'm currently helping out some guys, hope the contribution works out
yeah I also wrote that
The excuse "no payment method available in my country to buy it" is maybe the only legit reason.
but I hope not too many players have this problem :/

It is available on Steam. If you can't find a payment option of your liking on that, I doubt you'll find one anywhere else.

well in the local store you can get it with cash. That was the point. However TM2 is only available with online payment methods and paysafecard, which is not available in Africa etc.

Sure but you can only expect the developer to do so much. Getting worldwide physical copies doesn't seem the most fun, cheap or easy thing to do. It being available on Steam is as reasonable as it's going to get.

I didn't criticize Nadeo for the digital distribution. I just hope that not too many players can't buy it because of that.

The only thing I'm a bit disappointed about is that the interface/look of the solo-campaign does not look like the launch trailer suggests:
However, the game itself is still awesome.

Alas , we can only help each other. BTW I bought 3 pack to give away to people in African countries and others that have the problem.. and really no skin of my back paying so little for someone else to enjoy years of fun.

Can we expect some useful services for this game, like tm-ladder.com?
Quite sad you can't check logins/rankings etc right now
