This for their store, or for any online retailer who uses it. It provides extremely fast content dilvery, unlike steam which tends to get overloaded servers frequently. Steam will definitely be an option, there's no need to worry about that. :)

For people in Australia; Steam is the place to go. Games over here are so overpriced, it's ridiculous. It's far more cheaper than retail and dedicated publisher stores (online). Ubisoft are still charging $50 bucks for TMUF, I'd hate to see how much they overprice TM2. :?

In terms of downloading, if I download from Steam and I set it to a local 3FL game server, I get 'freezone' downloads (download doesn't count towards my quota). So however big it is, it's no problem for me. :mrgreen:

An important question to beta testers: What about download size?
- You did.
- And...
- ...I didn't.

Less than 1GB. To be more specific: ManiaPlanet - 60MB, TM Canyon 'HD' - 800MB or TM Canyon 'Normal' - 150MB(?). I may have missed one (the skins pack?). Hope I'm allowed to post this. ^^

In the Beta we had to download ~ 1 GB (HD) but we were able to download Low definition version too and it has ~ 400 MB! (But it is a beta and it is just Multiplayer so i think with singleplayercampagne etc it will be around 3 GB?!

So much ! :O I don't think so... that solopart of the game is 2 GB? I would be suprised if so.
