Count on Gamersgate to fuck up the prices, lol

Too bad I'm always LTTP for these things...

 

[Freezard]

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

Rule #1: Always undercut foils by 50% of minvalue if you want more than $1.50 for it.

What horrible advice.

 

[NingenJanai]

Anyone has an extra Two Worlds II key that would like to trade for a below average Humble Weekly 1C ? Otherwise I'll just make a giveaway some day.

 

[RionaaM]

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.

What? The regular one? I'm putting mine up tonight then!

 

[Ledsen]

What? The regular one? I'm putting mine up tonight then!

Unless you want to buy it yourself with an alt account I don't think there's any point in doing that...

 

[JakeD]

so my crusader kings 2 experience so far has pretty much been:

play for an hour, realize i have no idea what im doing - "i better watch a youtube tutorial"

get bored 4 minutes into youtube tutorial - "i'd rather learn by playing"

^repeat 4 times*

i think at this point i'd prefer this

 

[wilflare]

Why are people creating alt accounts anyway?

Redeem spare copies of the same game and sell them? Isn't it easier to trade the cards over and then sell?

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

I know! I play it like yearly. Only thing stopping me is that I got the retail version at least twice already!

I spent like 8 years of my life playing RTCW:ET daily.

I wonder that too. It doesn't make sense to have money in one account, games in a second account, and gifts in a third account...

I dunno about CK2, but Victoria and Europa Universalis are pretty easy to play. They only look intimidating, but the actual basic gameplay is simple (especially in EU3).

 

[Acccent]

Hm so I looked at all the backgrounds to see which ones I prefered... here's a selection:

Monaco:

Orion Dino Horde:

Port Royale 3:

(I wonder how the first one looks on a black background)

Really Big Sky:

Ion Assault:

What do you think?

 

[JaseC]

Tomorrow I'll install the mod that adds the missing stuff (six resource items and one water tower) and finish the campaign, then I'll be done.

 

[RionaaM]

Why is that? Didn't Toddhunter say someone bought one of those for 30 bucks? I want to sell mine too.

 

[wilflare]

Lol the steam cards thingum make me regret not getting Port Royale 3 when it was on sale ages ago... That cards value... None of my Shogun cards are selling (lol)

 

[FloatOn]

So I spent about an hour into Ys 1 yesterday and I found that playing in a windowed 720p resolution is the best option for me since I really despise black bars.

Are the later games full hd?

Now for the game itself. It's oldschool as fuck and I love it. The "bump" combat system seemed really silly at first but I think I'm starting to like it.

 

[Hawkie]

Why is that? Didn't Toddhunter say someone bought one of those for 30 bucks? I want to sell mine too.

The implication is that the sale is not "legitimate", rather it is arranged for the purposes of moving money around between parties.

Did you watch Idle Thumbs stream? It's pretty brilliant and much more fun than a random tutorial or Let's Play.

Isn't that cheating?

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

Bought myself my first SSD for my desktop today. A couple of quick questions if anyone can help, please: Am I good for running a few games from the SSD but keeping the rest tucked away on one of my internal HDDs? Will Steam update games regardless of their location?

Sorry if it's obvious answers, but I'm new to splitting out my Steam library across multiple locations... go easy

i will do that, thanks!

 

[JaseC]

Technically, yes, but it's not as though it's possible to get them without the mod.

 

[Fuu]

This missing stuff deal is so awful haha, it's almost like the game itself is taking the piss. Can you post a link to the mod here too when you get to install it?

 

[fantomena]

Technically, yes, but it's not as though it's possible to get them without the mod.

Of course it is possible, what about the dirty console peasants, they don't have mods.

I'm assuming you're using Steam Mover or something. My SSD has my OS, Steam, and it's where I install all my games-- I then move games I'm not currently playing over to the HDD. They stay updated just fine.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

What do you think?

Go for one of the Monaco ones.

Thanks. Yes, Steam Mover is indeed factored in to my plans. Good to know games will still update without being on the primary Steam drive, that saves some unnecessary hassle for sure.

 

[JaseC]

You can find it here, but the site is down at the moment.

Of course it is possible, what about the dirty console peasants, they don't have mods.

Unless the PS360 versions are different, which I doubt as the missing stuff wasn't added to the PC version via a patch, then they miss out. The "Perfectionist" achievement is the final completion-based achievement in the game and it unlocks at 75%; there's nothing tied to 100% completion.

 

[Bucca]

Man, I am REALLY tempted to buy the $10 early access for LOADOUT.

Saw a video of a group of friends playing it and it looks like so much god damn fun.

But I'm worried that the F2P release is right around the corner.

 

[C00kie M0nster]

What do you think?

I do know that PalmDesert (guy with the highest Steam level) has the second Really Big Sky background. The one that looks like something out of Portal.

 

[Fuu]

Go for one of the Monaco ones.

Yeah, those Monaco ones are pretty classy.

You can find it here, but the site is down at the moment.

Thanks!

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

I just found out there's co-op in Saints row 3. How elaborate is this? Is it the complete campaign you can play together with a friend or just some tacked on side story?

 

[Deques]

Isn't there any similar mod/tool for Saints Row 3?

 

[Dawg]

Co-op the entire game with a friend. I've done it 3 times.

 

[JaseC]

It's the same as the SP albeit with one more player.

 

[Blue Ninja]

JC2 has a story? I just randomly hijack planes, helicopters, bikes and tuk-tuks, destroy military installations and crash boats. It's fantastic.

 

[Stallion Free]

You can do literally everything in the game in co-op. Every single piece of content.

It's fantastic.

 

[JaseC]

Not that I'm aware of, but then I've barely touched the game.

JC2 has a story? I just randomly hijack planes, helicopters, bikes and tuk-tuks, destroy military installations and crash boats.

It's rather bare bones, as you might expect.

 

[Dolor]

I'm really hoping Rome 2 gets some sweet sweet cards.

CoH 2 and Shogun 2 both got cards which gives me hope...

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Thanks for the replies, me and a friend are installing it now to play together. Why didn't I know about this sooner...

 

[Acccent]

Go for one of the Monaco ones.

Yeah, those Monaco ones are pretty classy.

Right, may go with one of those then. I'll probably try to get another one just to be able to change once in a while.

I do know that PalmDesert (guy with the highest Steam level) has the second Really Big Sky background. The one that looks like something out of Portal.

...that makes it too mainstream

The last mission has you chasing a crazy dictator who is riding on a nuclear missle, you do so by surfing on your own missile and hopping from missle to missle to get him.

Yea it has a story, and it's *insane*.

The first game made you fight the dictator while falling from a plane, I should have known they'd find a way to make it even crazier.

 

[HoosTrax]

Papo & Yo - yay or nay? I think I've heard some mixed things on it.

[Addnan]

Alien CM will finally be mine? http://uk.download-shop.sega.com/buy-download-pc-games/Aliens:-Colonial-Marines(TM)-3072-38.html

 

[FloatOn]

I bought it because it's 3 bucks.

Seems interesting enough and I dig South American settings.
