Support / Re: How to Download the Latest Version: 1.1.1

« on: January 26, 2009, 02:15:23 am »

I'd really like to see some improvement in delivering updated versions to the users that purchased the game.

I've been trying for the last week to get an updated version of the game with emails to both Alec and Plimus. With other software I can visit their website and download a patch.  I don't understand why it's necessary for this email-and-wait-for-a link solution on delivering game updates.

Version 1.1.1 is on torrent sites now.  I have legitimate license and yet it's harder for me to download a (legal) update than the (pirated) version of the game.  Seriously - that's screwed up.

I must say I concur with the general notion in this post. A mate of mine recently bought Aquaria, and I thought I'd give it another shot. However, I'd naturally want to update it first - at which point I hit the snag of not having direct and easy access to the game. With all due respect, this is exactly what shouldn't happen with buying stuff as digital downloads.

As for a solution, well, might I suggest you talk with Valve and make it possible for people to activate their copy there? As it doesn't doesn't have the same limitations as Plimus has with regarding to actually letting the customer getting his/her game.
