January 3, 201412 yr I believe you answered your question in your previous paragraph. If they are providing a piece of software, surely they need to provide support for it? Less people using it, less money spent on support... I can't see how they would spend money to have the product sold on Steam. The client downloads and the microtransactions were handled by the Steam servers.
January 3, 201412 yr I can't see how they would spend money to have the product sold on Steam. The client downloads and the microtransactions were handled by the Steam servers. It was for double DRM. GFWL and Steam. i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB
January 3, 201412 yr I can't see how they would spend money to have the product sold on Steam. The client downloads and the microtransactions were handled by the Steam servers. Steam may handle the client, but Microsoft has to continue to support the GFWL portion of it (all the DLC, which must be downloaded through the GFWL client), in addition to any support requests about the game itself. Steam does NOT provide support for any games in it's vast library, unless they are their own games (i.e. Team Fortress, Half-Life, etc.).

January 3, 201412 yr If you look in the GFWL logs (%localappdata%\Microsoft\GFWLive\Logs\GFWLClient01.log in particular), it lists the content URLs for the items you've downloaded. Those CAB files can be made into .flightAddons, or can be extracted and installed manually. If you save those CAB files, you should be set.

January 3, 201412 yr Author One of the things I know happened is that the transition to local currency along with the (broken) XBOX dashboard update right on top of the forced Account info update left a gazillion people stranded with all sorts of problems with their accounts. It was a nightmare, and I suspect they finally threw up their hands and just decided to junk the whole pile of upchucked puppy food. We are all connected..... To each other, biologically......
