Strange Republic Commando Problem

Post by Nova Hawk »

I first bought steam because I wanted to buy Republic Commando and not have to worry about scratching up the CD and so I completed the game a few weeks later I think but after I finished it, I bought BF2 and complications arose and I had to uninstall RC (Control Panel > Programs and Features) because I thought it might be interfering with BF2 and then later I found out that it was just a problem with steam. Now when I go to my games section RC is not showing up only BF2. Does anyone know why this might be happening? Cuz I haven't been able to play RC the day I uninstalled it.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.
So let's display the events:

1) Bought(???)/Installed Steam
2) Bought/Installed Republic Commando
3) Bought/Installed BF 2
4) Uninstalled Republic Commando
5) Posted this topic because you haven't been able to play since you uninstalled it.

I'll get back to you on this.

No, the problem is I can't reinstall it because the game is no longer found in my steam account.

I'm looking for a similar case to help, but the only thing I can find so far that could be it is, are you sure you're logging into the right Steam account?

Yes, I'm pretty sure that I'm on the right account cuz I had BF2 & RC up there at the same time once and now RC is gone but BF2 is still up.

@501st_commander: It still shows that I bought it but I dunno about the downloadable.

And if you can't redownload it, contact Steam and ask them.
