Yes. At the UK price for a 4 pack (£17.99) it works out at ~£4.50/$7.27/€5.11.
That's vs £5.99/$9.99/€9.99 for the normal price bought in the respective countries. It's almost 50% off for Euro peoples...
I made several posts in this topic about being interested ;)
You could try PM-ing Ubivis, I think he was interested as well.

Ok, PM'd him. It's occured to me that because of Paypal's unfavourable (cheating) exchange rates it might cost you a fraction more that XE.com said it would. Meh, we'll find that out when we get to it.

Ubivis has already got it, but I found a third person in Kaliosmasteris. I'll carry on looking for a fourth person.

Alas already have it or I would.

But it's not that far off from the NA price for the 4-pack, which is $7.50 per copy ($29.99 for 4), probably still a few cents cheaper after the exchange rate fee though. That is quite some drop for the Euro folks!

Yeah, the difference between US and UK prices is negligible. Yeah, the main things are the 75% off and the fact that EU users won't be being forced to pay $14.

Yeah.

Also how does the running without Steam running thing work? Some special command line? This doesn't open if I try to open it from the steamapps subfolder, or try to copy it elsewhere and run it.

It does work in offline mode though (even the multiplayer aspect) but I can't seem to run it (may just be me being dumb) directly from the .exe itself.

Oh... someone told me that it ran without Steam...

I found this:

If you navigate to this directory:
C:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/terraria *

There will be an .EXE file named "Terraria" (Bet you didn't see that one coming)
If you boot up this file, Terraria will launch without having to have Steam open in the first place.

I feel this will be helpful to a lot of people who want to play without using the Steam program.
Leave a reply or a like, let me know it helped you!

* In a 64 Bit Windows OS, the path will be C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/terraria
Until a certain someone finally purchases the 4-pack I can't verify though.;
But the less than legal version runs without Steam ;)

Weird. Mine doesn't for some weird reason, but, will try with the main home computer later. This machine is pretty messed up anyway! Thanks for the info.

Sorry to keep you guys waiting, I replied to all your emails now.

man this game is red hot despite no advertising, steam stats now 28,285 max 28,519 are playing the game, however that does not mean you will be to join anyone randomly,you will need to know the ip address of the person hosting the server,
port forwarding is a headache better gather a group of friends and make a network on hamachi and play it works awesome

Hmm, starting without Steam isn't working for me either... *disappoint*

Oh well, I will probably just crack it then. >.>
