22 pieces of coal, what to do? Anyone have any trade offers? I've got an extra Toki Tori to trade as well.

Craft it. That coal is just waiting to be crafted into a free copy of Skyrim, Saints Row the third, and a DOTA 2 invite. I can feel it.

You're terrible.

Ask in the trading thread, I'd trade you Nuclear Dawn (has a sale objective) for two crafting tries (14 coal).

 

[RoboShmup]

I may just wait until the last day before doing anything. Still have a few more objectives to do.

I'll check out the trading thread though.

The Binding of Isaac achievement is trash, it's completely random whether or not you can even get a chance to get it.

Also, only being able to shoot in 4 directions is weird, and nothing is explained.

I uploaded a savefile for it in the other thread.

Is the Mafia II: Digital Deluxe Edition worth it or the regular one is enough?
The difference in price is 1 DLC pack.

Try using different combos for the vsync. Off ingame and on in GPU control panel, off in GPU control panel but on in game, off on both. If none of those work then turn it off in both and turn on vsync + triple buffering using the D3D Overrider tool

Thanks, will try D3D overrider if the tearing is too much or the mouse sensitivity is absurdly low.

I am seeing some mouse lag in Far Cry 2... I have V-Sync enabled both on my card and in the game. Is there a difference between the 2? I have a 60hz monitor and my machine will climb up to the point I recognize and see horizontal tearing...

Yes, I also had some big mouse lag with FC2, I deleted the game since I wasn't gonna play it for now, but I really have to look into it once I get back to it.

The thing that pisses me off though is that you have to press and HOLD right mouse to aim down the sights, now I know this makes much more sense on console/gamepad, but it's so unnatural to try it on a mouse, I really hope there is a way out there to change it into a toggle.

 

[TDLink]

I crafted "Uplink: Trust is a Weakness". Not really interested in it so is anyone interested in trading like...anything that isn't a bad coupon for it?

 

[LQX]

Crafted "Jamestown Deluxe Pack" but already have the game. Anyone has good shooter or adventure game for trade?

The Steam trading system is great because it let me trade a bunch of League of Legends PAX Sivir Skin codes for a bunch of cool stuff without using the hellhole known as eBay.

Thank you for not implementing a "Binding of Isaac" achievement for Sequence.

Thank you.

 

[Relax.MX]

Thank you.

Well yes, but Feep you have a good game, i think it would be better another achievement with more dificulty (to make more people play more time, to discover at least two stage to meet with boss battle's)

 

[butts]

I don't mean to brag but... 50% off Farming Simulator 2011.

 

[Danj]

There's a link in the Steam Binding of Isaac forum to a txt file that will unlock most of the achievements in the game including the one needed for the challenge.

See: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2398585

Could someone rehost this file somewhere? I can't seem to access that forum.

I uploaded a savefile for it in the other thread.

Which other thread? Is there a BoI official thread?

Have any left? I might like one.

 

[dLMN8R]

Yeah Feep, your game was such a pleasant surprise! You gave me a free copy a while ago but I didn't get around to trying it until the objective for it showed up. It's totally charming and fun, and I'll definitely go back to it a lot

 

[cicero]

I can't access it either. I'd love some help on this one, I spent quite a while attempting to unlock it myself with no luck.

I went back in my history and found the url with the serial.txt file that you can use to replace the serial.txt file in The Binding of Isaac Steam folder. But it also instantly unlocks 70% of the other achievements as well once you restart the game after replacing the file. There is that, and also the problem of how Valve might view this type of achievement getting, which seemed to elicit a different type of response from other achievement farming or save file using threads.

If you are fine with all of that, here is the url from that now closed Steam thread. Caveat emptor!

Yo guys, I'm trying to give away a game in the other thread. Pop by for a spell.

 

[Soi-Fong]

How much coal is Portal 2 worth in your guy's opinion?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

I know on sale stretches like this, they repeat some deals on the final deal. Think there's any chance they'd put up Skyrim for $40 again?

 

[camerooni]

I have a 33% off Skyrim, and 33% of Bethesda coupon post sale if they don't.. either of those should do the trick if you like?

 

[Hakkuei]

I don't mean to brag but... 50% off Farming Simulator 2011.

Meh, can't be better than Trainz Simulator 12 or Woodcutter Simulator 2011

 

[cicero]

If they do their typical last day being a compilation of the best selling titles during the sale thing again? Sure, it could happen.

 

[Feep]

Well yes, but Feep you have a good game, i think it would be better another achievement with more dificulty (to make more people play more time, to discover at least two stage to meet with boss battle's)

The achievement had to be "gettable" within a certain timeframe, and since my game is linear, it had to be near the beginning and therefore easy. Besides, easy cheevo = more sales. = D

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Wow, that would be very cool.

 

[Semblance]

I'm running out of games to do achievements for.

That 33% of Bethesda coupon is pretty great!

 

[frogg609]

I bought Shogun 2 and all the content for it. 13.65. Pretty darn happy about that.

 

[Darkkn]

Sigh... Crafted my first batch of coal and got -10% for paradox titles :/

Otherwise it's been a good sale. Dead Space 2, Batman AC, Bastion, Anomaly Warzone and DX: Missing Link bought. None of these has dissapointed thus far.

 

[deduce]

I told myself I wouldn't craft again but then I see people crafting coal into DOTA2 . . . crafted 50% off Strong Bad Season 1 . . . smh . . .

 

[Benedict]

Thinking of buying Total War Shogun from US if there is a kind soul over the pond.
What DLC is worth buying?
Any other deals cheaper in the US?

 

[shintoki]

Though I haven't had great luck with the raffle, I have had some pretty solid luck using it for trades. A few coal trades and one purchase(For the price I was waiting on anyways), I basically netted everything I wanted.

And between Amazon and GamersGate sales. I'm down to Skyrim being the very last title for this year I want to own. Saints Row III with DLC for 23$, Dead Rising for 13$, Missing Link for 3$, Bulletstorm gifted(Chu Chu!), and Portal 2 for 7.50$. With several titles I didn't even know I wanted

I would say get the regular + Mafia 1.

 

[DTKT]

Are gift obtained through the Holidays achievements "permanent". I have counter strike source but I dont want to trade it yet. Safe to wait ?

Anyone want to do the Dawn of War 2: Retribution achievement with me?

1000 coal, in my opinion.

i've been playing Binding of Isaac all day and i still haven't gotten any of the achievements i'm supposed to get -_-

Got the Winter sale cheese mint for Sequence, really enjoy what I've seen so far of that game. Nice music.

Hey Danj, I still need to do that too. add me on steam http://steamcommunity.com/id/slayzz

thanks guys the fix worked perfectly

 

[Steeven]

I'm currently hooked on Binding of Isaac. Because of the huge amount of items and combinations of them, you never know what's going to happen next. I got the achievement Steam wanted me to get, although you have to have a lot of luck. If you want to laugh, read the Steam forums of this game, full of people moaning how hard it is to get. Great game, wouldn't have minded spending ten euro's for this one.

 

[NGKrush]

never played a total war game and would like to dive in.
which would you recommend?
i'm an experienced civ player, played a few rts games, but never a "hardcore" one.

 

[YianGaruga]

Yay, just won Trine...

Anyone out there who still doesn't own the game?

None of them are super complicated, so whichever era you like best. Rome is the most simple, while Empire/Napoleon is the most complex, but you could start with Empire and still be fine. I haven't played Shogun 2 yet myself, but from all reports it's an excellent game also.
