Has there been any word on linking Steam to Facebook?

Im still stuck playing only on my PC, an im not about to throw my months and $$ put into the game and restart on my cell phone.

No word yet. If it does ever happen though I'm sure you'll hear about it.

This has been one of the most requested feature asked. I would love this too. Just have to wait and hope!

Yeah, I would like to have this feature as well. I am getting pretty tired of only being able to play on my computer and not on my Android phone.

I hope they make this possible. I'm getting a tablet in a month or two and I'd love to have the advantages of playing anywhere. Plus, I'd love to get in on that Facebook rewards thingy.

I started playing on steam. I love it. I love it so much my wife got me an iPad to play it. You know the rest. I'm out for work 12 hours at a time and would love to play on my extended lunch breaks. Dem cravings

Linked versions on Steam and my Android phone would be great, I have managed to avoid the evil pull of Facebook's tractor beam so i dont care if it links to that or not, just a cloud save between Steam and mobile version is all i want.

Being able to play on lunch is what made me consider getting a windows 8 tablet for a while, but then I realized that I was considering plopping down a good chunk of money just to play this game and I came to my senses

I do quite well myself, but if i could have it on my phone i could play it at lunch break at work, or during my 1 hour commute to/from work. Leaves me at a disadvantage when sitting high in a bracket.

It would be nice if we could get some type of official comment on this regarding when they think this might be implemented. In a few months? Later this year? Next year?

Unknown

Absolutely, make it happen already! Such a battery drain this.. And the rewards sharing thing too

Wasn't this in beta?

My guess is they might not be implementing it because cheating is supposed to be easier on the pc version. Or at least that's what I've gathered from the forums.

A simple google search will show you that basically all the cheating is through phone apps.

Hope they patch this soon for you steam players. Missing out on alot free iso. I lost facebook sharing for about three weeks when the game got linked to my wrong fb account. They fixed it this morning and got my backlog of gifts. Took 15 minutes to accept all the rewards. 13k iso. 15 tokens, and 30+ critical boosts. All that for 20 days, imagine how much you've missed out on playing on steam...

Wait, seriously? You get that much stuff? I'm getting a little annoyed by IceIX's silence now.

I am assuming this amount of free stuff is gifts received because you have lots of facebook friends all playing MPQ and all giving you stuff? If somebody had none of their friends playing there would be none of this extra loot, is this right?

From what I've read, it's random gifts to your friends. It's not that big of a deal even without it. A lot of us are originally Steam players that end up having iOS phones or iPads and just want to play on the go without having to start over. I've put over 300$ into my account and would love just to play on the commute to work or on my extended lunch break.

Funny story, I bought a new Android (used to have an Optimus V, which really couldn't run anything well) and tried goofing off with this game on there, but I obviously couldn't transfer my Steam account's file over to it. First cover I get from a recruit token is a red Patch.

Now I'm depressed.

I seem to recall someone (possibly a dev) saying that they weren't going to bother with letting Steam link to Facebook, with the reasoning being that it was too difficult in comparison to how worthwhile it'd be for them. I hope that's not the case, as I'm waiting for the day something screws up and I lose the file I've spent hundreds of hours and at least $75 on.
