Scribblenauts Unlimited was already confirmed to be PC, so its that. Its one of the titles I'm looking forward to this Holiday Season <3.

I think WB is publishing though, so would 5th Cell be added if they were just the devs? Also Hybrid was built on Source, so there's still a good chance it could be put on Steam.

 

[Boss Doggie]

lol the pixel vision skin isn't compatible

 

[Cloudius12]

You got it

It's a dev comp, not publisher comp.

 

[RoadHazard]

No invites here.

To those who got them: When did you unlock the badge?

 

[Sinatar]

5th Cell was added to the registry. I wonder if this is for Scribblenauts Unlimited or Hybrid?

Scribblenauts was announced for PC already so it's most likely for that.

Hybrid will come for sure. But it wouldn't be in the system less than a week after XBLA release

Check again.

It went up before the sale started and I unlocked the badge as fast I could to avoid the inevitable server crash.

Me please ?
My first "quote to obtain" post, hope I'm not doing something wrong, don't want to annoy people here.

 

[Hellix]

First to quote will get Steam Community Beta access.

Hey ho.

 

[Cheddahz]

Anyone know anymore skins that work with the new beta at the moment?

 

[rjc571]

Does the PC version of Mutant Blobs Attack run at 60 fps? I was extremely disappointed when I saw that the Vita version only runs at 30.

 

[Eideka]

Can I run Ghost Recon Future Soldier maxed out at 30fps with a GTX 570 ?

Oh well, guess I was just too late then.

[derExperte]

You could send me a pm if you still need an invite...

 

[Glass Rebel]

Don't know if it was mentioned but Supreme Commander Gold Edition is 3€ and whatever dollars on Gamersgate. Registers on Steam.

 

[TouchMyBox]

I didn't realise the Workshop can extend to unreleased games. Hopefully it means we'll have map downloads on tap.

Ever hear of Dota 2? :3

 

[Thermite]

I have an extra beta invite and a 75% off Portal 2 coupon for anyone that wants 'em.

[Levyne]

I need to use the community features more. I just play games. And post on GAF

Same, I wish there was a better way to take screenshots when playing on the tv with a controller though.

 

[Levyne]

I still don't have that one badge because I've never posted a screen shot or commented on a friend's page or screen shot.

 

[DTKT]

Everything is so slow. And there is so much unused space.

I really can't see myself using the community feature.

 

[Thermite]

I'll take the invite

I sent a friend request to this profile:http://steamcommunity.com/id/catabarez. If that's not you, link me to your profile please.

 

[Chanser]

This beta seems nice.

PORTAL 2 PUZZLE MAKER GETS CO-OP
Free Update to "The Perpetual Testing Initiative" Adds New Features

August 16, 2012 -- Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Half-Life and Counter-Strike) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today released a free update to Portal 2's in-game puzzle maker that lets users design and publish co-op test chambers.

Since its release on the PC and Mac in May, 2012, community map makers have used the Steam Workshop and Portal 2's in-game editor - called the Perpetual Testing Initiative - to create and share more than 170,000 single-player test chambers. With this update, the community will for the first time be able to design puzzles that require two players working cooperatively to solve.

This update also introduces a "Quick Play" feature, which allows players to quickly access the top-rated maps in various categories.

To help players find a co-op partner, Valve is giving every current owner of Portal 2 a Steam coupon for 75% off a copy of Portal 2, which can be given away to other Steam users.

Portal 2 holds a Metacritic score of 95% and has been awarded numerous Game of Year awards. It features expansive single and cooperative multiplayer game modes.

For more information on Portal 2 and its downloadable content, please visit http://www.thinkwithportals.com.

Just got this in my email. Old? Even if it is, this is going to be fantastic.

 

[lennylightspeed]

Oh goodness the beta is already here. If a kind soul were to sent an invite to me I may give them a terrible game in return. Just something to think about....

[Avallon]

I am looking for a steam social beta invite if anyone would be kind enough to share. Thank you

 

[Thermite]

What are the betas for?

It's for the new friends/community features.

Edit: Still have a 75% off Portal 2 coupon if anyone wants it!

[Exuro]

So I got the beta invite thing, do I need to restart Steam for it to show up or what?

You have to activate one of the invites. Like a game that's in your inventory that you want to have in the library.

Right and I did. Should I be getting the new friend tab and whatnot?

Oh, so that's why everyone's been getting Portal 2 coupons. But then why haven't I got one? I own Portal 2. Is it because I didn't actually buy it through Steam, but got a Steam copy by buying the PS3 version? That's pretty sucky of them in that case.

 

[HadesGigas]

I got Portal 2 as a gift from a friend and haven't gotten a coupon.

That could be it, or you might have to wait a bit longer. It seems that they send coupons in a wave patterns. I guess that sending 40 millions client notifications and everyone checking what it is at the same time = burning servers.

Same and I have it. Restart steam, it worked for me.

 

[HadesGigas]

Yep, that did the trick. Weird how Steam can instantly notify me about spam friend requests from Russian TF2 traders, but not about new inventory items...

 

[derExperte]

Yeah, should look like in the screenshots with 'Friends', 'Community' and the nice littlew 'new' above them. Wait, did you go into Settings, 'Beta participation' and select the one available?
