Metro 2033 Uses Steamworks on PC
by Alice O'Connor, Feb 19, 2010 9:43am PSTValve Software's Steamworks suite will power all PC copies of 4A's post-apocalyptic shooter Metro 2033, Valve and publisher THQ announced today.
Steamworks will give provide "auto-updating, Steam Achievements, Steam support for in-game DLC, and more" while requiring Metro 2033 be played through Steam.
Based on the novel by Dmitry Glukhovsky, Metro 2033 is a moody shooter with RPG elements set in the subways and surface of a frozen post-apocalyptic Moscow.
Metro 2033 arrives for PC and Xbox 360 on March 16 in North America followed by a European launch on March 19, packing DirectX 11 features on PC. THQ is offering a free copy of space asshole simulator Red Faction Guerrila with pre-orders on Steam.
Digital distributors Impulse, GamersGate and Direct2Drive are unsurprisingly not offering Metro 2033. The three publicly aired their discontent with Modern Warfare 2's use of Steamworks, griping that it would require they also distribute their competitors's sales platform--which led D2D to describe Steamworks as a "Trojan Horse."

Saved games is really not an issue if you backup your harddrive (doesnt even need to be regularly, just when you do it once or twice, should be enough). You can even automate it if you so want. Key configs is not that hard either.
What I want though, is the ability to install the game I bought in different location rather than forcing it all under Steam folders.
