Looks like there might be some big changes coming for Enhanced Steam and how it works with and processes data from the Steam API servers. It seems that we've finally caught Valve's attention with almost 1 million users, but not in a good way.

That makes me sad.

 

[ratcliffja]

I just used "M" as the name and put in the address and phone number they provided in the PDF. Worked fine on Amazon.

Thanks. We were trying on Steam because we heard other people did it, but that method doesn't work on Steam either. We'll try on Amazon, though.

On another note... WTF is up with Green Team's insane lead and the fact that I've apparently earned 0 points despite voting over 3 times today and buying a game that cost over 10 bucks

You need to craft badges to get points unfortunately.

Good to know... now about their stupid lead....

 

[jshackles]

What happened?

Well, since it was published publicly on our Github, I'll just post the link here so everyone can read the concerns as well as my response.

Bought one game and one game only today
Rocksmith 2014
Had the cable from a BB Rocksmith deal forever ago where I got Guitar+Bass version with realtone cable on 360 for only 30 bucks forever ago.
Never learned to much on it cause mostof the songs were garbage...
2014 has been a HUGE turnaround filled with a ton of great songs. (hoping first goes on sale so that I can buy and import it)

You only get points by crafting badges.

apparently corrosivefrost doesn't understand how hemispheres work and thinks it's christmas in argieland

not to say that payday's devs deranged renditions of christmas carols aren't unsurprisingly awesome

Sorry to hear that, Valve really needs to embrace the community surrounding Enhanced Steam, the demand is clearly there..

 

[TheMadMan007]

I won the text thing! Which one do I redeem? Movies on demand credit or use at a movie streaming service?

Oh wow, I hope you can work something out! Would be terrible if they blocked ES users and I'd hate to lose all the benefits ES brings =(

 

[Anustart]

Any kind soul wanna give me summer cards 2,3 and 5? I blew my wallet wad on Terraria gift lol.

 

[Cru]

Ive been doing streaming service and getting a prepaid card.

 

[Xeroblade]

Green Team for the win bitches!

 

[pahamrick]

I won the text thing! Which one do I redeem? Movies on demand credit or use at a movie streaming service?

Movie streaming. Then you can use enhanced steam to redeem the full $6 to your steam wallet, just use the details on the pdf you get (Address, phone number, ect)

 

[jshackles]

Sorry to hear that, Valve really needs to embrace the community surrounding Enhanced Steam, the demand is clearly there..

I'm confident that ending outcome will be positive, and I understand their point. But hopefully they realize that it's going to take some work on both sides to come to just the right solution.

 

[terrdactycalsrock]

Should I buy sniper elite two? Is it a legitimately good game?

 

[Speevy]

Thanks to KevMan1815 for Antichamber!

Using enhanced steam to add the 6 bucks doesn't lock your account?

 

[TheMadMan007]

Ok cool. Do I want to redeem it now or later? Sorry for the stupid questions but I don't want to mess this up

 

[Wario64]

Wasn't this game free weeks ago?

WTF green team?

The reward for good work is more work

even though valve probably still moves at valve time

 

[Anustart]

Shoulda jumped on it a week or so ago when it was free! But I can't comment on quality, haven't tried it yet.

 

[GringoSuave89]

Did you not pick it up when it was free?

It's aight

 

[SteveWinwood]

Yes.

I hope they're willing to work with you on this.

You need to save the PDF within 7 days, and the prepaid expires in August.

Using enhanced steam to add the 6 bucks doesn't lock your account?

It didn't for me. I thought it would, but I wasn't too concerned but I didn't get a marketplace lock.

 

[Colby]

I got two $6 codes yesterday with two phone numbers, but I didn't win on either of those today. I wonder if there's a limit per number/email address.

 

[Enthus]

I don't know how my team has double the score, but I don't mind it one bit. Go green!

 

[Eusis]

Oh... fuck. I just saw green's lead.

QUICK I NEED TO MAKE A BADGE OR WHATEVER I NEED TO DO TO GET A POINT.

 

[Kusagari]

So how often can you do this Mars code thing?

I just won first try.

 

[jshackles]

I hope they're willing to work with you on this.

Me too. There are still a lot of features that don't need access to the Steam API, but we would lose things like highlighting owned/wishlisted stuff, as well as "friends own", "friends want", "friends reviewed" tags, Early Access banners, and quite a few other really great and useful features.

 

[Bravocado]

Hope y'all are feeling green

Spoiler

WITH ENVY!

I got two $6 codes yesterday with two phone numbers, but I didn't win on either of those today. I wonder if there's a limit per number/email address.

I tried mine and got a second code after midnight, so I don't think there's a limit. My friend who tried got one but didn't get a second when he tried after midnight.

 

[terrdactycalsrock]

Did you not pick it up when it was free?

It's aight

Shit! I didnt know it was free! Well, I'll just keep my money because I feel cheated

Spoiler

I'm not actually that petty

 

[Dusk Golem]

I just beat Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City and it's DLC missions. Main game was ehhh, but for some reason, the Echo Six DLC missions were actually good, like leagues better than the main game. I actually enjoyed them a lot.

 

[Dr.Acula]

Should I buy sniper elite two? Is it a legitimately good game?

I think a lot of people are talking about it and enjoying it because it was recently given away.

I had some fun with it, but I found the AI a little cheap and somewhat frustrating when dealing with stealth elements. I'm just not crazy about stealth games in general though (MGS, TLoU etc.).

I'm would have been disappointed if I had spent 7.50 on it.

It's also 3rd person.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Appreciate the tip on the $6 sweepstakes and I won . Since regular steam won't let it go through I just either buy through amazon or use Enhanced steam?

 

[wilflare]

I already have Hitman Absolution
is Sniper Challenge + 8 DLC (missing those 8) worth the $4.99?

 

[Volimar]

Can someone point me in the direction of a full what to do instruction on the Mars contest thingy?

 

[mfaex]

I must be the only one who lost that $6 thing, grrr.

 

[pahamrick]

It should go through on regular steam fine, but enhanced steam lets you add the $6 to your wallet.

The trick is to use the address and phone number on the PDF. Should let the card go right through.

 

[Anustart]

Works for me through regular steam. Are you using the address info given in the pdf file?

 

[Dr.Acula]

Ditto, what post was that? I've missed it.

 

[Chance Hale]

How do I win 6 space bucks?

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

Being the one man alive without a cell phone sucks when stuff like this comes up.

 

[jshackles]

I must be the only one who lost that $6 thing, grrr.

I lost the first time I tried a few hours ago, but just tried again and won. Free Stanley Parable for me, thanks M&Ms!

 

[Anustart]

How do I win 6 space bucks?

Text movie to 78787.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

I must be the only one who lost that $6 thing, grrr.

I lost twice, so...

 

[Yakkue]

Can someone point me in the direction of a full what to do instruction on the Mars contest thingy?

1. Be from the US
2. Text MOVIE to 78787
3. Somehow redeem the Streaming Movie Option to Steam

That's what I found out at least, can't participate since I'm from Europe.
