I was wondering if we will be able to link our accounts from here to the new steam version. I do want to play the game through steam but don't want to have to start over. I checked the community hub on steam and seems that there are some people who are in the same boat. I apologize if this has been brought up already.

Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case, correct me if I'm wrong. I guess CS wants it to be a fresh start for new players over there.
