Where is this temp folder located?
Does Steam put it where you have your temp folder on Windows? Or on a temp folder it creates where the Steam installation is?
I highly doubt FTL will come anytime soon, seeing as it wasn't even discounted during the Autumn sale.
Bumping this to the next page.

Especially with a new Humble Indie Bundle coming before Christmas, you'd be a fool to tie up your investments in Indie Futures.

Say you have Steam installed on your SSD, but choose to put the download onto your storage drive.
Will Steam download it to a Temp folder on your storage drive?
Sine Mora is $3.39 right now.

no. will download it where you have steam. I have
..had...
finally had enough and deleted the game. Seems like all updates download to this 'downloading' folder and then are installed to where you have the game installed

He's hoping for Sine Less though.
Oh wow. So basically that system is pointless if you have a smaller SSD, and potentially damaging if you have an older one with a limited amount of writes.
That's very strange that they don't put the Temp location on the destination drive. Would save some needless time copying the data over as well.

now i guess i should include that i used SteamMover for this game, but i would imagine the way its setup that it downloads these to steam, then installs where you have the game.
I guess someone who has used the new 'choose which directory to install' option and verify how it works
Both Hell Yeah (SEGA) and Sine Mora (Kalypso) are publisher based titles, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

Prepare to have people always mention the THQ bundle from now on, like it isn't an anomaly.

I wanted to bring the same argument, but isn't Bastion published by WB and still was in a HIB?
Or was there something special about this? I don't even remember people complaining when this happened.
I chuckled at this. lol.
No sharp knees, 10/10, would bang.
...the bathroom?
is this what the excess of sales in such a short timeframe causes?

yeah but this doesn't make any sense because latin
Why not just install Steam on the the HDD entirely? It's not like having the exe on an ssd makes much of a difference right?

I think SuperGiant owns the Bastion I.P., though and the publishing deal is more of a distribution deal. I could be wrong, though.

wilflare is Sine Pecunia then, happy?
Was it self published on Steam? I forget.

The same for Psychonauts which was even released for the PS2.

Double Fine bought the rights back from Majesco in the meantime. It's an I.P. created and owned by an independent studio.

I can find nothing special about their publishing deal, sounds like standard procedure. Could be that they still own the IP, that still doesn't make Bastion "Indie" though. I'm quite interested how that deal with Humble went down and if WB saw any money from that at all.
Product page lists WB as the publisher.
That's a different story though, since DF bought back the rights from Majesco(?) before the bundle.
Don't know if he is or not, but I smiled.

I was going to write a thing about how With purchasing Sine Mora sine mora, wilflare is sine pecuniam but then I would have to remember how to make the ablative absolute, and I don't remember any latin from college at all. And I don't remember the proper inflections.
Glass Rebel

I don't remember them either and I have a MASSIVE exam in roughly 3 months *sigh*
morningbus
Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
The fact that they got to keep ownership of the I.P. definitely makes it a special type of publishing deal.
It's a fine line, but one only set a little further back than the line that allows Double Fine into the bundle with no problems, which itself is only a bit further back than any indie game that gets published by Microsoft or Sony on Xbox & PS3.
i know no latin.. but all i found googling
was this
Pecunia non olet
more savings in the pocket does not smell :X

Had such issues with Chivalry today.
Trying to join a quick game before I have to leave for school. Most servers are glitched so that they show a bunch of people in them, when they are actually empty.
And after a while, I would join a server and it would lock my router. Would need to do a hard reset to get back in.

TheVampire straight up posted Skyrim porn in the Screenshot thread and then just disappeared.

How is the DLC for Hell Yeah? Tempted to get both things since my wallet has just enough to cover it.
No idea. I bought it but don't feel like playing those missions any time soon, nor getting those customisations. Maybe I'll do it if I replay the game someday.

Chivalry is downloading a 700MB patch for me right now. Maybe something to do with that?
I was wondering if someone could help me out my might and magic clash of heroes seems to be really screwed up.
when starting up it is running at like 15 FPS and repeates the ubisoft logo twice before moving onto the capy logo which it repeats like 10 times before it finally moves on to the game where it continues to run very poorly.
When I last played the game it ran perfectly fine with no issues, and other games like saints row 3 still run smoothly right now.
I have already verified the game, gotten errors and redownloaded that way.
changed my settings to run as admin and in compatibility mode for windows xp service pack 3
and I also completely deleted the local files and downloaded them again none of which has fixed the game.
anyone know how to resolve this issue. I was going to check if maybe it was related to the ubisoft releases in general but despite owning 400 plus games on steam I only own the one ubisoft game lol

Checking the steam forums, most suggests to restart your PC. Have you done that?
I know Jet Set Radio have that same problem/bug too and restarting does indeed fix it.
SteveWinwood

Oh awesome. I can actually proceed through the tutorial now lol
I had similar issues when I was running with dual monitors. Ended up unplugging my old monitor since I never used it anyways which fixed the problem.
heh... despite that being the most logical thing to do I neglected to do that because I am waiting for the raptr rewards free deck pack one for magic 2013 to go live, I guess I have enough time to restart though so I will give that a try and report back.

That's 45 min away. Your PC must be extremely slow.
Terrific. Nice knowing the game has done so well and that the support is top notch.

Well they should do something about the performance.
nah it's not that slow, I just had everything nicely set up with notifications and what not with add ons that I have to reset up now. Plus I was interested in the Q&A at noon and watching a show on my computer.
also resetting did fix the issue. thanks for the response ^^

You were having trouble with the game on low and at 800x600, right?
Not trying to be snarky here: but you should do something about your computer.

When a PS3 would run the game better than your PC the need to upgrade should be clear.

Well i can play Sleeping Dogs with everything on High and a better Res so that shouldnt be the problem.
