20 minutes left in my giveaway.

Warning: Contains traces of Origin

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Welp, already fucked up my "As Many Acheevs As Possible" run of DXC.

 

[Lord_Byron]

Not sure if it's been posted or discovered yet, but I went digging through the HumbleBundle.com site and found this block of code:

<div id='game-info-batmanarkhamoriginsdlc' class='game-info-pane'>
    <a href='#previous-game' class='game-nav previous'>Previous game</a>
    <a href='#next-game' class='game-nav next'>Next game</a>
   ........

TL;DR : Looks like the Humble Bundle is adding Fear, Guardians of Middle Earth, Gotham City Impostors Free to Play: Professional Impostor Kit, Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection, and some sort of Batman Arkham Origins DLC.

so it´s confirmed

People complaining about the WB Bundle? it's already solid as it is, anything on top is just the icing on the cake.

F.E.A.R.itself would have been acceptable.

 

[Delusibeta]

I would imagine it's the traditional "everyone who buys in early gets it, then BTA for latecomers" model since there was no notification saying otherwise.

Gamasutra is receiving reports that Early Access games are no longer appearing under the 'New Releases' heading on Valve's Steam marketplace.

"We've waited so long to reach this new audience on Steam, and now that audience won't be able to tell we're there," said Siu-Chong, in a later tweet.

Both Project Zomboid and Assetto Corsa did subsequently appear as large ads on the Steam storefront's carousel, but as of this writing still do not appear under the 'New Releases' section. Gamasutra has reached out to Valve to provide comment or clarification regarding the change.

It's been BTA-only for a while now.

 

[clockworkinyou]

Anyone buy Folk Tale? Any insight? I'm afraid of being soured on an early access game.

More ES features coming to Steam...

I kind of like the idea, but I think it should be a choice up to the developer. First impressions are important, and some Early Access games are REALLY early. People still don't understand what that means.

Did Super Meat Boy ever get Cloud Saves?

Undeniably nice additions but, given that Marvel Super Heroes is due for release any day now, I'm a little surprised that Warner's didn't take the opportunity to introduce their Lego games to people who might otherwise overlook them.

Bundles are the worst, you can't complain about them without feeling like a dick.

I'm extremely happy that F.E.A.R. is being added, I'm pissed at Humble for implementing their new activation horseshit that always fails here and for not responding to my (extremely polite) mails =p

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

Sorry for the shitty Origin keys:

Thank you for A New Beginning.

 

[Saty]

Thanks DukeBobby! Won The Whispered World.

 

[Freezard]

Too bad they fucked up the Steam edition of FEAR since the game goes back to the main menu with an error message at level load now and then.

 

[RuinKaos]

Did Super Meat Boy ever get Cloud Saves?

Just checked my steam client and it is showing that it has cloud saves.

 

[TheSadRanger]

Just bought the Blood Dragon, Call of Juarez bundle.

Didn't know Blood Dragon uses Uplay, why is it not listed on the Steam store with DRM Uplay............ I didn't see it listed when I bought it. It's not even on the Blood Dragon page.

This and playing I Am Alive today with it's shitty controller support is too much.

 

[Mideon]

Got Arkham City and Arkham Asylum keys if anyone wants them

All Gone!

 

[throwawayname]

Got Arkham City and Arkham Asylum keys if anyone wants them

[DXLelouch153]

These catwoman sequences are way too short in AC.

Ir's listed under the system requirements."Requires a UPlay account"

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

Arkham Asylum please?

 

[DXLelouch153]

Mark of The Ninja results are showing up

If it's a Ubisoft game, just assume it uses uPlay.

 

[TheSadRanger]

I missed that, what happened to having DRM listed on the right side near the features it has and the metacritic score..........

edit: I thought it would be like I Am Alive which doesn't use Uplay

Call of Juarez doesn't either but I guess that's because it's a Techland developed game.

 

[angular graphics]

Too bad they fucked up the Steam edition of FEAR since the game goes back to the main menu with an error message at level load now and then.

Not in my case. I've played (= at least half of the game if not finished) the Steam version more than a couple of times.

I'm looking at the Blood Dragon page and it very clearly says it needs a uPlay account.

EDIT: beaten

Thanks DukeBobby for Scribblenauts!

The issues I had when I was trying to play Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands were just ridiculous. Uplay has an offline mode, and PoP is supposed to as well, but one time when I went to launch the game I was getting network errors that wouldn't go away until. . . I launched the game without my 360 controller connected.

WHO DOES THAT?!

 

[kurahador]

These catwoman sequences are way too short in AC.

Everything feel short in AC except those damn riddler trophies.

 

[Copons]

Uh, if the games jshackles leaked from Humble WB Bundle are real, I may fuck my fear of FEAR and start playing it from the first one, instead of giving them away.

Way to go WB. Very nice of you to screw two lucky guys who'd have won my FEAR 2 and 3.


EDIT: RionaaM. If at one point I get an heart attack, I'll consider you directly responsible.

 

[Anteater]

I only do them every once in a while, they burned me out in AA >_>

 

[TheSeks]

FEAR 1 is coming to the bundle? May buy it for Fear 1-3 then. Got no interest in Mortal Kombat so I'd give that way with a few of the others if the average isn't like $6.50 or above.

WHO DOES THAT?!

The first Assassin's Creed doesn't work with Wireless 360 controllers. It detects a controller, but the game doesn't have the necessary hookups to work with the Hardware ID of those, so everything is just mapped incorrectly and there's no way to properly map some of the Analog Axis.

The game does work fine with wired controllers and, if you plug one in, it detects a 360 controller, so the game configures itself properly and the wireless controller works fine.

So I'm not surprised when you tell me another Ubisoft game sucks when it comes to controllers.

I bet enough people didn't complain about it on the community forums.

And are you saying I Am Alive doesn't use Uplay?! That's the only reason I've been skipping it all this time :O

 

[Clawww]

sweet

I Am Alive is an Ubisoft developed game so it uses Uplay (AFAIK).

 

[trailmix16]

I'm really liking long live the queen. It's similar to a recent rash of games with multiple endings, which boil down to you plugging away at different algorithms searching for a new ending. While trying to win, of course. Papers, Please did this as well, but I think LLTQ is more upfront. I might start writing some of the 'minimum points necessary' blocks just so I'm not just randomly inputting values.

 

[JaseC]

Why is Jase Hilary Clinton?

That explains the tame nature of the sex scene in HILN.

It doesn't, oddly enough.

Uplay

I Am Alive is also a really crappy game with bad mechanics, which is an even better reason to skip it =p

It's a pity there's basically only one "story" in LLTQ, tho. The events for each week are fixed.

 

[Cheddahz]

Uplay

MY FAVORITE THING EVER

 

[trailmix16]

do you think this is poor design choice or a blessing in disguise? On the one hand replayability is great, but then again if every week was random I'd be even more lost. But I suppose the events would repeat.

It misses that extra thrust.

 

[MarcoZombieCannon]

MY FAVORITE THING EVER

Controller support in the client is nice though.

Sorry for the shitty Origin keys:

Won Arkham Asylum, yay

Thanks a lot DukeBobby!!

[Crentist the Dentist]

Chaps, bit of an odd one, I don't have many friends on steam which is why I think I'm more inclined to enjoy console gaming. I bought a new desktop in January (which, incidentally, cleaned out my bank account!) and have a tonne of games I've never really gotten into on it. I think my steam name is PrisonMikeScott (that's what comes up under community anyway) so if anyone fancies checking out the games I play and seeing if you want to connect with me that'd be cool. Love reading the thread so hopefully some of you fancy it!
