Yep. Play Defcon for free. Not just the demo, but the whole damn game. Between 18:00 GMT August 24th and 06:00 GMT on Monday, August 27th.

During this time, you can play the full game by merely downloading the demo client. The way Defcon works is to connect to a metaserver, which checks your game's key, or gives you restrictions if you have no key. This check is merely being disabled (server side) for that weekend.

So go get a free game or two! An event may even appear to get us all together around that time :)

Well, you can always try the demo whenever you like :)

The only restrictions the demo places are:
  • You may play the single player Tutorial, and you may play a single player game against one AI opponent. (The full game permits six player games with any of those teams played by AI)
  • You can set up any multiplayer game, but you can only have a maximum of two players in your game (The full game permits six player games). You may only play the Default game mode.
  • You can join any multiplayer game, but only if there are no Demo players already playing in that game, and only if the game is using the Default game mode. In other words, only one Demo user may join any one game at any time.
  • You may specate any game of any size.
  • Demo Users may not play any of the advanced Game Modes: Office Mode, Diplomacy, Speed Defcon, Tournament Mode.

Whichn't isn't too bad!

It matters not which version you use. All games go through the metaserver, so Steam accounts and play with non-steam accounts can play together. The only thing is that non-steam users get to use the new patch (which is still in beta) which fixes some ship exploits, while the Steam users can't. But as long as none of us use to the beta patch, it's fine :) And we'll just make sure none of us cheat!

Everything. OSX is distributed by Ambrosia, who are also doing the deal (according to the post). All 3 versions use the same metaserver, so you have any platform playing with any other platform :)
