Just bought 1C humble bundle. Any idea which version of king bounty and men of war should I play first?

 

[BorntoPlay]

Goodmorning.

thanks Maxwood!!

 

[wetflame]

Yeah, I bought it a while back, hoping to get lucky.

I didn't.

We all hope to get lucky some day. I did, and it was ultimately disappointing.

Nice! I'd gone through my last so I couldn've helped. And I managed to post a PM to the thread here, so you're not the only one making mistakes tonight Glad you got in on it, and sorry to hear about the account mix up

I wonder how many here are buying Skulls because they actually want to play it, instead of buying it simply because there's a pricing error.

I just bought it because 17-bit has a sweet logo

You forgot to factor in cards.

I snagged a Monaco foil about a week ago that's equally worthless.

Cards dude.

CARDS.


Also yes, price error. Same reason I struggle to not pick up a game that breaks street date :/

 

[JaseC]

GamersGate accidentally priced the four-pack at $15.

This is what you get for defecting to the 3DS.

 

[Acccent]

Part of why I'm buying it is to give some money to the devs, even though I probably won't play it a lot. Also to increase the numbers in the sales figures for that type of game on Steam, which might influence things somewhere?

And yeah, it's a pricing error so you could argue that if I wanted to support the devs I'd buy it full price, but it's not like I have infinite money so a little bit is better than nothing, AND hopefully in an instance like this one GamersGate are the one who suffer from the error, not 17-bit.

 

[mrgone]

WELL FUCK

Haha holy shit

 

[Deques]

So, you got a free game now. Congrats

lol

 

[JaseC]

All the Prima guides pertaining to Bethesda-published games are no longer available for purchase.

 

[Stronghammer22]

I wrote a guide for Skulls of the Shogun. Just saying, since we're talking about the game. It's a lot of fun.

 

[wilflare]

congrats Salsa
I got that for AirBuccaneers... couldn't sell it.. and now it's value is at 2.10 lol

Only reason Shogun foils were so high previously was because the game wasn't on sale or had pricing errors. People who buy cards are well aware when games get discounted and will not pay the same amount as pre-discount.

Couldn't Steam Support move it to your other account? Like, tell them you accidentally activated it on your imaginary brother's account or something.

 

[Salsa]

foils are a lie anyway, when you look at the chart there's ussually like only.. 3 sold, on a 30 day period

Yeah was gonna also post that no one actually bought it at 30 so your post about foils selling for 30 was a lie.
edit: OK there's *one* card that managed to sell for 30.

 

[Salsa]

no, people bought it at $30 alright

just 2 or 3 people






also :weed: is back up to $25, should have bought it when it was at $15

Is there a liste somewhere of all the profile backgrounds available?

People bought the :trading card: icon today for $30 too.

Seems to be the trading/money laundering amount of choice. I put all my garbage up at $30 in case people get confused.

Ah, thanks, but I can't see all the backgrounds on one screen and compare them. It'll do!

yeah, when something shitty sells for high prices its probably just transfering money

doubt it happens with foils tho

 

[reptilescorpio]

Made your money back at least dude!

Now you get to play your free game!

Just bought 1C humble bundle. Any idea which version of king bounty and men of war should I play first?

King's Bounty: The Legend came first (it's basically an overhaul of the the 1990's original) but I personally preferred Armored Princess.

As far as Men of War goes, you've got Men of War itself (which is the only one I've played so far), followed by Red Tide, Assault Squad, Vietnam and Condemned Heroes.

To be honest, I don't think that it really matters which order you play either series in, but my inclination is always to play the oldest ones first in order to appreciate how they evolve over time.

 

[wetflame]

Ah, thanks, but I can't see all the backgrounds on one screen and compare them. It'll do!

You could also use enhanced steam and go through the list of backgrounds on the edit your profile page, it shows a little thumbnail there that changes as you scroll through. Although it's obviously not as large as the ones on the steam card exchange site.

Didn't you learn from bagging System Shock 2 before you played it?

Skullgirls is not a new game. It already has a lot of fans and is being constantly improved. There is a long and sorry history behind its development but that is in the past.

Personally I didn't like it at all when I spent time with it before the update. But there are very few other options available (mk is poor and kof isn't exactly a barrell of fun) so it is well worth supporting.

System Shock 2 is a whole different ball game compared to this though.

You can't really compare the two.

Yes I can, I've played both.

Got my Take on Mars early access key from Bohemia for testing. Have been waiting for this game in long time.

Edit: Damn, that was crazy fast. Huge thanks to whoever invited me.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Anyone have anymore Skulls 4 packs? Particularly the one's on the cheap 4 pass

 

[HoosTrax]

Ugh, I woke up just now (7am US time) to find a PM on Steam telling me about the pricing error on Skulls of the Shogun (he probably saw it on my wishlist). Ah well, can't win 'em all. I got lucky on the Sleeping Dogs thing way back.

 

[TheNamelessOne]

Count on Gamersgate to fuck up the prices, lol
