Breach Released, Standalone Server Plans

Atomic Games announces that Breach is now available, offering a new multiplayer military shooter for Windows and Xbox 360. The game features destructible environments, an advanced cover system, and other technology originally created for Six Days in Fallujah. Breach is now available on Direct2 Drive and Steam at the same discounted price, which Direct2Drive says is 40% off, but Steam says is a 20% discount. There is also a thread on the Breach Forums complaining about lack of the promised support for dedicated servers (thanks Garrett2112 and Joao). We contacted Atomic, who explain that now that the game is live on Steam, players will find the dedicated server under the tools tab in their Steam menu. They also acknowledge that having this tied to players' Steam accounts is less than deal, indicating that they are working on a standalone dedicated server to be distributed separately. Word is:

There is a legitimate complaint about the dedicated server being tied to the Steam account. We are working to remedy the problem. Once we've got a version of the dedicated server app that is independent of Steam, we should be able to release it through our website.
