Enemies start doing more than just charge in a straight line?

more enemies, including ones that shoot and do other crap, different types = faster reflexes, better accuracy.

game just benefits from the mouse, not as if it was an FPS or something, but still.

So I got the DLC code for Steam from the First Access Club website but Steam keeps telling me that I already own the content yet it doesn't appear in the game. Am I doing something wrong?

well after deleting clientregistry.bob bookworm appeared as a demo (?) and i was able to delete it.

Other stuff still persists.

The Longest Journey appears only on detail view, and when i click it i get this:

its basically confusing it for Tropico..

same with confusing Crazy Taxi with Secret of the magic Crystals for some reason

problem is that in the process Crazy Taxi and TLJ became unavailable so.. yeah

I'm guessing the recent Steam client update broke your custom skin.

Edit: And thus your skin is taking revenge.

i disabled it and shit's still going on

EA representatives have installed a Steam-centric virus on your PC in a misguided attempt to push you towards Origin.

I also have a download "stuck" that doesnt show under "downloads".. i think its PC Gamer digital that i tried to download a bit ago.

Ugh, i really dont wanna deal with Steam Support or reinstall this whole thing..

Bookworm just keeps popping up every time i open Steam, even if i just erase the steamapps folder.

Multiplayer works fine to this day. There are hundreds of players still playing i checked acouple days ago, i think more people play without the fan patch online.

Have you been using Origin? Steam is taking revenge for your BF3 indiscretions, it's the only logical answer. :)

Poor Salsa.

It could be that your Steam drive is dying. I had issues with corrupt/missing game data before the bloody thing kicked the bucket entirely.

Maybe Salsa is dying and we're privy to her final moments. RIP.

I heard of others having similar problems after the update today. Just not on this scale.

I'm thinking he tried to delete everything and move over to Origin. But it's not so easy now that all of his games need to update.

If Salsa dies, does this thread die with him?

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. The client has been fine for me post-update.

My categories have gone. They were there, now they aren't.

:(

It happens to the best of us. I used to have some fantastic categories, but they got nuked for some reason. You aren't a true Steam user until you've set up a bunch of categories that were reset just because.

Every time somebody asks about Half-Life 3/Episode Three, God Gabe resets the categories of an account.
