    Not sure who's getting the word add-on from anywhere. Our wording on Steam.

    Early Access Includes:
    Game Key: Access the game now, during the Beta period and after Planetary Annihilation releases.
    Theta Commander: Commanders are at the center of your faction in PA. The Theta commander is a unique shell design only available to those who purchase the game in Early Access or pre-purchase the title at a later date. It is a distinguishing symbol of your support.
    Soundtrack: The PA Soundtrack is the game’s score by Howard Mostrom and recorded by a live orchestra. It will be yours via digital download when the game is released.
    Desktop Wallpaper: This is the official full release Planetary Annihilation wallpaper and will come in a variety of resolutions for you to choose. (Design to be finalized by release.)
    Digital Artbook: From early concept sketches to full renders, this is a compilation of the art and design that went into PA.

    From the Steam page:
    It looks like it's the Pricing update that uses the word "addons" specifically, the rest of the blurb is self-evident.

    Also, I note that PA is no longer coming up in the autocomplete or the search listing for "planetary annihilation" on Steam (only the trailers are listed). I guess Valve have blocked it from the results temporarily until the pricing thing blows over?

    It is a bug with their search from what I have been able to find, not intentional, but then again I don't know for sure.

    Ah, I forgot about the update I wrote used that wording.. updates aren't really the product description, so it didn't even enter my mind.

    It worked fine previously, and stopped working once everything kicked off on the Steam forums over pricing. Possibly it is entirely coincidental, I couldnt say since I don't have any contacts at Valve. Just thought I'd mention it is all ;)

    I recall Howard mentioning it would be in flac. (Which is preferable to wav in just about any case.)

    A quick question on what forum rights come with the game, does buying alpha access get you into the backers forum or just the alpha forum.

    Selfish question as I have alpha but no backers as I did not find out about the kick starter until too late.

    Anyone who purchases ANY PA edition will get access to the Backer's Lounge(but it's basically the same type of threads as General Discussion so just use GD instead) and to get access to the Alpha Subforum you need to purchase either the Galactic or Cosmic Editions.

    It says "check out interview with the Howard!" On the uber store page below where it says soundtrack download.

    I didn't know where to post this.

    The cheapest way to get the delta now is to buy the cosmic edition off the uber store.

    250 bucks currently (with a bunch of physical goodies), but I think Garat said that he was figuring on bringing back the 200 dolla digital only cosmic edition back before the alpha phase is over.

    I don't even know if the cosmic edition will be available in the beta or not, now that I think about it.

    Please be advised that the Kickstarter finished last year, also.
