So basically Dark Souls is fucked with DSfix now until Durante repairs their damage.

 

[esai]

ive been away from gaming side for a bit and we're already on thread 6? wow.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Thank you namco.

This sucks. I wonder what this patch is supposed to do.

 

[TheSeks]

Dunno if this was posted but the "GAT V" (see what they're doing there?) DLC for Saints Row 4 is free until 10AM tomorrow PST. Grab it if you plan to play SR4 now or in the future?

 

[Krusenstern]

Looks like it's a Steam only update. When I start the game, which I installed through disc and only uses GFWL, there is no update.

Okay, so why is Steam suddenly asking me to verify my email address? Should I be worried? : /

Got the same thing. I just verified it.

Unless you have an offline profile, I don't think your previous saves could work.

Er-like the console versions the saves work offline.

Of course, I should test that without my X-box Live account signed in and then having the connection drop to see, but it should work like the console versions.

Your GFWL key can be registered on Steam if you want it to.

I did. But I installed the game from disc. No need having Steam running when it's actually not needed.
But what did the update actually do?

 

[rybrad]

Nothing quite like the eternal gratitude from one Steam user to another for providing a timely, accurate answer to their question. I thought this was hilariously fitting after all the talk of the Steam community compared to that of consoles.

Oh thanks, I didn't know about that.

Grabbed!

 

[wutwutwut]

It's related to the FPS Unlock in DSfix apparently.

Yeah, disabling that fixed it. I assume a new version of DSfix will be coming shortly.

On the other hand, I now have to play at 30 fps and not 72. The game feels terrible at 30.

 

[NingenJanai]

What did they do? removed GFWL?

 

[Lasthope106]

What did they do? removed GFWL?

I don't think so. I launched the game and still logged me into GFWL. Pretty useless update IMO.

So they put out a new patch without fixing the frame cap, are they seriously considering leaving all the work to Durante?

 

[Whooter]

Whoa, new thread and it's already five pages in. I need to knock this sleeping stuff off...

 

[NingenJanai]

Sonic Racing Transformed has online play?

 

[Cheddahz]

Yes and it runs smoothly

Yes.

Correct. Which is the way it should be. Any different way is being a dick to future buyers.

Cheers for the heads up. Will definitely own the game at some point. Added to my account fine without owning the base game.

 

[NingenJanai]

Yes.

Cool, thanks.

Is the DLC worth it?

 

[denx]

I never played any ME3 DLC except for From Ashes and the Extended Cut, but heard they were really good. Would you recommend playing them? I would need to start the game again, since I've forgotten many things.

Oh, and if you thought the game was easy with an Infiltrator, wait till you are spamming the Charge + Nova combo with the Vanguard. Pretty much only the enemies that have 1-hit KO attacks can stop you then.

If you can only buy one DLC for ME3, buy Citadel. That DLC doesn't takes itself seriously at all. It lampshades and makes fun of pretty much everything in the series, and at the same time it's a celebration of its universe and characters. After you beat the main storyline, you'll be able to have some quality time with your ME2 crew (something that was lacking in the base game), a new hub on the Citadel and tons of minigames will be available, and arguably the best part, you'll have access to a combat simulator where you can take any surviving squadmate from ME3 and ME2 to fight any of the multiplayer enemy factions: Reapers, Cerberus (+ Dragoons), Geth (+ Geth Bombers) and Collectors. So you can, for example, go fight the Collectors with Wrex and Grunt by your side.

If you can buy another DLC, then go for Leviathan. That DLC clears up and gives more context to the ending and

Spoiler

the Catalyst's motivations.

Omega is overpriced. It is too short (4 hours) for the asking price and the worst thing of all, once you're done with the storyline, Omega doesn't become a hub, so you can't visit it again. I just bought it because I had spare BW points and since I already had the other DLC I just said "oh what the hell". I had fun with it though, it was nice revisiting Omega, but I don't think the asking price is justified. I would only recommend it if you really, really liked Omega and Aria in ME2 and you want more of that. Otherwise don't bother.

 

[KenOD]

Cool, thanks.

Is the DLC worth it?

Metal Sonic doesn't really offer anything different, but Outrun as a stage is great to race on with it's larger than normal boat racing section to help stand out. Very good challenge for battle races.

 

[yoshizzle]

Cool, thanks.

Is the DLC worth it?

I'd say so. Adds one new character and a neat stage. Worth it for 74 cents, imo.

 

[Colin.]

Just how difficult is going through La-Mulana? On the fence about buying it. Usually if a game pisses me off too much with high difficulty, I will quit and forget about it.

Thanks, there's only the one DLC right? no chance of any other future DLC?

Yep, no chance, unless they add in more free characters

It's very difficult but a very good game. You can play it with a walk through and it's tons of fun. Very very well crafted game that deserves your money.

 

[KenOD]

DLC no. However Sumo has promised more characters, and we got Willemus not that long ago for free, so it's possible we'll get Ryo Hazuki or someone else as an update.

Just don't hold your breath. Luckily it's still a rather full game and plenty to go through.

Did the raffle last less than 15 minutes? I entered for FEZ too but I don't think I did it in time.

 

[Widdly Scuds]

I can't believe I used the default skin for the client for so long.

Pixelvision's neat.

 

[KenOD]

[FauX]

Yes, it did. ModBot doesn't love me

 

[Infinite Justice]

updated dark souls and it worked for me (with dsfix).

I don't remember using the framerate unlock though so that might be the issue after all

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Thanks destx!

You should use it once it gets fixed. It's really nice.

Thanks destx. If I grab the bundle, I'll be sure to give back.

 

[Syphon Filter]

destx thanks for mark of the ninja!

Just checked and yep the framerate unlock is the culprit here. Gotta wait on Durante.

haven't bothered with the game since I need a controller so whenever that happens i'll go back to it.

 

[destx]

It's a real shame about the shitty filtering on player sprites in KOF XIII, they look really blurry compared to the background and UI. Anybody manage to get subtitles in the animated cutscenes working?

 

[def sim]

There are no available keys for GTA4 so I can't play it. This shouldn't be a problem ever. :|

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

WHO ELSE IS HYPED FOR OUR THE XCOM ENEMY WITHIN, WASTELAND 2 AND DAY Z STANDALONE?

Wait, W2 drops in like a month, right?

Cool. It works well with either the 360 pad or DS3 (with the button mod).

Dat GTA 5 hype. Gotta wait for Rockstar to send more GFWL keys to Valve.

The GTA Steam forums are going crazy right now. "*** NO CD KEY. I THINK STEAM IS GOING TO GET SEWED" is my favorite one.

 

[BoosterDuck]

Wait, W2 drops in like a month, right?

thought the release date was pushed back to November

Oh wait I keep reading it's coming October.

 

[jakershaker]

for some reason I had these already

Yumsters code was already used -_-
