All the different acts were developed by different teams at Capcom. So you really have a inconsequent game.
Like some acts are good, some are awful.

Nice, welcome to the club.First steam game I've bothered
The wait for Escape Goat 2 begins.
More people having access to the card game doesn't necessarily mean they've got free access to the summer sale cards. Everyone who joined Steam after the sale or simply didn't vote/buy enough during it to get the badge would be potential customers in the eyes of speculators. You know how some people in this very thread get about acquiring Steam games that are no longer available for sale...
...The problem is that there are approximately 5 people who care about that and 568,000+ cards on the market (and that's not even counting cards hoarded in peoples' inventories).
I would say it's better than dark souls lag for sure. The way one of the lobbies works is that there is something like 30 or so people in this somewhat large map and you go around challenging people to duels.
When I was playing I'm pretty sure one of the devs was on voice chat teaching people how to play, so I think eventually the community will be really great.
I can't wait for them to add more than the current 3 fighters.

Deadly Premonition preorder is up, £17.99/$22.49 (10% discount currently).
Yeah I've heard it's very up and down. But I've tried to put it all to one side and just play it for myself.
Hey I was lead to believe that we were going to be getting folders to show off our failures to form social bonds and swapsies. My inventory is a bloody mess.
Though you are right I am a hoarder.

Pretty straight forward. I think it was something like:
* 1.5 hours first run through
* 1 hour cleaning up achievements (a couple are tricky till you know how)
* 1.5 hours doing the 45min speed run (I didn't make it the first time so had to do it again)
* Rest was card idling time.
So all up not much of an investment but one that is very well worth the time.

Sure but potential customers after the prices have crashed from the people who bombed the market prior to these "potential customers" entering the market lol
And then of course, like you said, no one that gives a crap about cards anyways.

Rising Star Games twitter said the 10% off is the same price it's going to have for the halloween sale. So if you're are waiting on that then I guess theres no reason to.
Since the Preorder includes the Deluxe whatever that is.

That's good to hear because the game looks very cool to play.

It includes the soundtrack, nothing else.
Hello good people, is there going to be a new Humble bundle in around 2 Days? Did I miss any info or guesses?
Also, is the $6 the default BTA average from now on? I'm just curious since I won't be at home when (if) the new bundle will be Live and I've been avoiding all the bundles so far, only got the latest one (below the average...).

"Soundtrack Edition" would be more fitting.
Great price, I can't wait to try this one out.

take my money. ALL OF IT
I was kind of expecting them to include The Deadly Premonition iBook that was announced a few days ago, but oh well, the soundtrack is supposed to be rather good.
More people would care if boosters would drop to where they didn't have to spend more money to get badges (that are pointless) to gain boosters to give extra cards to people.
I mean "get more boosters when more badges are created by the community!" Neat idea... except no one is really getting boosters. So...
What kinda sucks is that I'm one of those weirdos who is really interested in "swapsies"I think it's fun! But since so many games got cards within such a short period of time it became too much of a PITA to arrange trades for anything but summer sale cards. In the GAF thread people were just getting fed up and listing on the market because it was easier. I haven't looked into it for a while though since I haven't been playing games with drops and nobody wants McPixel cards.
...Steam does need a way to destroy inventory items though. Make it so you have to have Steam Guard on and verify each item if they're super-concerned about bad behavior. Store it with a "deleted" flag for thirty days just in case. Something.
To be fair, I'm not sure anyone predicted the sheer number of cards out there. 50,000+ extra of every card is kinda nuts.

I still craft badges every so often. I recently took my CSGO one to level 5 this discussion got me to go finish level 2 of my Blops 2 badge.

Send your trash to Trashbot. He's the best. I agree with everything else, trading is too much work, I buy and sell what I need.
I've levelled up my Port Royale 3 badge four times now. Twice I've received weed and twice I've not received weed, so I'm wondering where my fifth and final attempt will land.

Think I can hold out for the winter sale then.
Already grabbed Agarest War and can't even play it just to support more of that.
(Though the preorder incentive was much better there)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If were talking about steam items from badges I still say they need to make a crafting system out of it. Stuff like the Icons and Wallpapers can get pretty damn useless.
I wouldn't mind crafting 10 wallpapers or something for a random card. Just as an example.
I'm pretty sure Salsa can hook you up with that.
Just saw this.
Wish I could help but a tutorial wasn't even in place when I played around with it. Blocking in General did seem a bit tough to pull off. I had much more success with jumping/running around and attacking like a madman
I'm sure he still has some handy.

I know it's before Pokemon's release date. Just go with it.
Where did you find the game?
I think he sold all of it to buy the Pokeymons.
I had to do a ton of digging to find a place selling it for <$45, but I lucked out in the end (VAT is included in that price so the total cost, including shipping, was actually less: 22.73 pounds or about $38).
Yeah, there's a glut of cards on the market collecting dust because most people aren't willing to throw money away on digital cosmetics, and the ones who would normally become "whales" in F2P parlance are prevented from spending enough to compensate for the rest of us by the level 5 cap on badges. I haven't gotten a booster in months.
Not sure how to fix any of that though, outside of making it so boosters drop more frequently for people who don't sell cards (or people who sell cards, then buy others explicitly to forge badges).
Bandaid solution. If there was a way to simply destroy items there'd be no need for bot accounts to act as landfills. I am watching that account out of the corner of my eye to see if the inventory cap is a low enough number for Trashbot to hit though!
Speaking of bots. TF2 bots are apparently being targeted by Valve as "Scammers" made me laugh a little bit. But if Valve is going to give me dupe drops of shit, I'm going to turn those into "scrap" and then pay said scrap for two items that I don't have in return. Come on Valve...

I just think its too late for that now.
I mean you have 2 of the biggest MOBAs for free. While I think the magic-system of Magicka could make a fun game, why should I spent like 13$ on a Game, where you cant even be sure that there will be a big community and could be dead in 6 months.

Can Ubi Steam games now be activated independently on Uplay yet (As in, if they were just Uplay purchased games rather than Steam)? I'm not insane, but I'm looking at buying a AC4 DDE key from a trader (Rash, after seeing him mentioned in this thread in fact), but a bit unsure if a) It is definitely a RoW key b) how DLC will be affected down the line. If I can get it to register in Uplay and bypass Steam and any region locks (none in Uplay from what I've read up), I shouldn't have an issue with DLC later on as I'll just get it through Uplay if Steam doesn't allow me to. Not hugely worried about using it, as I've got all the previous AC's activated through there.
Thinking on it: Why doesn't Valve just let you buy booster packs? It'd be similar to how real-trading cards work. Buy a booster pack, get a random chance of a set number of card drops giving you what you want. The rest can be given away. It'd be much better than the current booster pack system and maybe felicitate trades for things you don't want/dupes to gain badges.
But they have to revamp the current ass trading window system before even thinking of doing this...

But at what price? You always get three cards but their value depends heavily on the game.
Since no-one else seems to have answered...
Hopefully, but we don't know yet. There was something about Magic cards in their twitter feed, and there's a Hothead bundle (DeathSpank, Baconing, RainSlick Precipice 1-2) in the steam DB (which will probably be one of the weekly deals), but other than that, we haven't really had any more information.
As for the $6 "BTA" value, it seems to be that way for the publisher bundles. The 'real' humble bundle still seems to be some kind of BTA.

Will buy before it inevitably goes F2P.
I assume Steam Uplay keys would redeem just fine on Uplay itself since they're one and the same, however the Steam versions of such titles, even though they now propagate to your Uplay library, need to be run through the client -- they're functionally separate to the "proper" Uplay versions. Rash sells the RU flavour of Black Flag but it isn't region-locked in any way and uses the same app as seen in the other packages, which is where you would otherwise encounter issues with region-specific DLC.

Damn, Grid 2 looks pretty ridiculous locked at 60 with perfect image quality on my 42 in plasma. I might actually finish this one's campaign.
Thanks #familysharing!
Thanks #familysharing!
Thank you for answering, I was wondering about the BTA since I won't be home for some time after (if) the bundle is Live.
About a month or two ago I realized these prices were almost never going to go back up, not just the summer cards but cards in general, so I sold all of mine. People are idiots and they completely crushed the prices with their races to the bottom and it'll never get better as long as these batch of idiots still participate in the card stuff. That or Valve does something to spark such an outrageous demand for cards that the batch of idiots can't crush the prices as fast as people are buying cards.

Ah cheers Jase, wasn't sure if you could go roundabout and activate the key in Uplay, uninstall from Steam then install via the Uplay client. But I didn't realise it was the AppID that caused the DLC issue, thought it was the region locked SubID. If that's the case, I can avoid all this muck around and just grab a copy from Rash.
To illustrate the first point, here's what happens when you try to run a Steam Uplay game from within the Uplay client:
