But the... Vas... But... but.... Q_Q There's no Vasari....

But this is good enough, I'll take it. 'Bout time we get another race in there.

AWESOME! But when I try and launch it from Steam it says the game is not available at this time. I don't see that it is downloading anything at the moment, and I'm wondering if it needs to update, but I don't know how to do that. Any suggestions?

*EDIT* Uninstalled and reinstalled and it is working perfectly fine now!

I just noticed that all my custom maps are broke now. I have tried to load them in the new editor and it gives me a error. Also when trying to make a complete new map it will give an error upon save.

Not to be a pain, but I'm disappointed in the price.  I understand how cool this can be for addicted players (I've been there!  Do you know how much I'd have paid for a Diablo 2 expansion?) ...but for a casual guy who only plays Sins once a month this isn't really worthwhile. =\

is it going to use the same buggy ironclad online for multiplayer or can you create games doing invites through steam now?
