Exclamation Game Of the Year Edition?

Hey Guys,

Future BL player, just wondering if there will be a game of the year edition with all 3 DLC's and maybe something extra special? just wondering, love the game and tbh i would not like to dl the adds from steam due to bad net + i get capped heaps easy...just putting the idea out there.

thanks

Slightly OT but a quick comment around your 'capped' comment: Frey's 3FL Steam Filter may be of use to you. I'm not sure if you're aware, but your ISP (the one you posted from) supports unmetered steam content when loaded from 3FL steam servers. Unfortunately, steam has a habit of connecting to a bunch of servers, not just the local one, hence the filter may help in restricting your downloads to only the unmetered ones (pretty easy to run - just run as admin and select 3FL).

As not all games are available from 3FL (or even if they are, it won't always find the content) you may find that downloads are slow, don't download at all or steam simply hangs, so filter isn't the cleanest method but it at least does ensure you're not using metered bandwidth. Just remember to disable the filter when you've finished downloading or else your steam might hang and have other login issues.

See here (Whirlpool.net.au) for the relevant chat thread.

If you have any issues with it, feel free to drop me a PM. I know how frustrating data caps can be!

To relics, sweet ill try that out next time im on and see.

To Antismily, i dont have a clue, being From Australia EB Games or any other retailer (Jb-Hi Fi, Game or Dickies) dont have any way of telling me that it is on the disc, the only way i seem to tell is through the price which is always $89.95 wherever i go...

The 'add-on pack' will be available in the US early next month - it contains the first two DLCs. Not sure if/when this will be available in Australia.

Check the 3FL filter link and see if your ISP is listed...I have a feeling it is

(But your point still stands, there is a demand for the GoTy edition)
