Well that's a step in the right direction (depending on whether or not you like steam, which I do!). I just hope they still plan on releasing a special edition for PC.

I have added it to my wish list as soon as I saw it. I think i'll love this game if they make a lot of multiplayer features.

I hope for the vs multiplayer gameplay to allow us to play as the aliens too as well as the marines. Rather than just a Marine TDM or something.

A Horde mode is almost a certainty for this game. It just will happen without question.

If there is a CE for PC - I will get it. But if there's not, I will buy the game from Steam directly.

We have no idea what perks means for this game.

What I like about the description is this

"and new looks for your squad". Does this hint to customization? I Think so!

Exactly.  If the perks are anything like Call of Duty you can count me out.  However if the perks are more like Operation Flashpoint Red River then I don't think it would be that bad at all.  Perks aren't necessarily a bad thing, it's just that they're poorly handled in most games.
