I copied the folder to my Steam/skins folder, but it's not showing up in the drop down menu in Steam. Restarting Steam didn't fix it. Anyone know a solution?

You copied the "Metro for Steam - 3.0" folder? You just have to drag and drop that folder in Steam/skins

Make sure that folder doesn't have another "Metro 3.0" folder inside.

sucks that x-com isn't getting good reviews, I was hoping it was gonna be at least a decent brothers in arms-ish game

I didn't like it turned it into a fps but this is pretty much the same and but the aesthetics seemed much better then and I was happy it was gonna be a horror game of sorts

Thanks, that fixed it.

PC version of X-Com The Bureau has Tessellation and Physx effects

Could be a great PC port, here's to hoping.

 

[Milamber]

Also who sets escape to quit the game completely?

Almost every single japanese "doujin" game uses the ESC key as a kill switch.

Guess why?

 

[Syphon Filter]

- Grid View
- Metro

It's like you're trying to say things to gross me out.

Minimalist Steam for life.



No it's not. The content just moved to SR4. jesus christ

list view w/ icons master race. wish the icons were 32px instead of 16px though.

 

[Salsa]

so much wubwub

this is a slick-ass menu

It has an FOV slider too which is awesome since they are almost never in TPS games.

 

[Turfster]

Oh I know why, but if your game resets the entire screen to 320x240, it's gonna be obvious either way

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Yeah but they announced that the first DLC will be a look behind the scene at what Enter the dominatrix should have been or something like that. Could be funny.

Just like Gangstas in Space was supposed to be funny?

[Chance Hale]

Holy shit, the PC version of X-Com uses Physx for destruction. Rubble and smoke effects everywhere *is in heaven*

Framerate is suspect though, seems like it might need patching. Then again I have AA and every effect cranked up. Still, shocked at how good it looks.

Was shocked to see that.

Edit: Great lighting too, was not expecting this to be a looker at all but wow.

 

[SapientWolf]

Considering SR4 is Enter the Dominatrix.

Looks like SR4 has a mix of DLC ideas.

 

[zkylon]

anyone that's played risen 1 can confirm me if there are any spiders in the game?

tyty

 

[Smash88]

Zkylon are we both waiting for our nuuvem SRIV key?

 

[zkylon]

Zkylon are we both waiting for our nuuvem SRIV key?

yes

 

[The Grim Heaper]

reinstalling ravaged to try out the new zombie shit WAS NOT WORTH IT

 

[JaseC]

Zkylon are we both waiting for our nuuvem SRIV key?

yes

Smash and zkylon sitting in the tree, W-A-I-T-I-N-G.

 

[Milamber]

Hmm... Guess I have to wait until the 23rd then.

 

[maneil99]

We need XCOM screenshots with Physx

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

wait

Xcom is out?

Shit.

Shit.

I have to wait to get the dlc.

 

[Chance Hale]

We need XCOM screenshots with Physx

Went to upload some and I noticed the overlay isn't working, and all the screenshots taken are black. Weird.

But seriously, the game looks amazing.

 

[Salsa]

holy shit the intro mission to Saints Row IV is something else

 

[JaseC]

More adventures in we never asked for this

This is great news.

Just finished The Adventures of Tintin. It's not on Steam, but it's been on sale Amazon DD for 2.49 a few times. It's a good time. The movement feels like a modified Prince of Persia classic, in a really nice way, and the combat stuff is super simple but never annoying. The characters lipsyncing in the cutscenes is hilarious though. Also it took me a little under 5 hours to blow through, which is exactly what I needed after playing Dragon Age 2 (the end of summer got really weird).

Worth checking out for 2.50 sometime. It's a great kids game too.

Tintin, along with King Kong, has been sitting in the registry for yonks, though. First comes being too lazy to send through a patch and now Ubi can't be arsed putting together a couple of store pages.

 

[Gvaz]

I'm crying here because i can't afford to play SR4

 

[Grief.exe]

I thought it was strange how The Bureau preview footage was always the console version.

If you got it, flaunt it. Show the PC version.

 

[Dice]

I can, but then my birthday is next month and I heave to leave something.

Funny thing is I'm going to play Pac-Man CE DX+ more than any game this year.

president baller


gonna finish the Dishonored DLC before I keep going


also: it still has the same annoying issue Saints Row The Third had: if your 360 pad runs out of battery or for some reason loses connection; you have to revert to keyboard controls and (afaik) exit and re-enter the game with the 360 pad re-enabled to get it to work again.

 

[zkylon]

meanwhile at zky's

 

[DexterPepper]

Finally.

That Reaper food truck faction mission "Check the Menu" will haunt my dreams.

 

[Gvaz]

Is there a stream of SR4? Because I need it in my veins and akljsdflsdf

 

[Omega]

For Metro 3.0 is there any way to change the colors?

This orange is annoying. I downloaded some settings thing that was also linked but I guess I'm doing something wrong because nothing changed, not even the font.

 

[Baha]

Groupees BeMine 9 is coming soon apparently: http://groupees.com/bm9
One of the mods in chat has confirmed the following:
- genres: shooter, rpg, strategy, racing game, adventure, platformer
- 6 of the 8 games in the core bundle are steam and there might be 4 bonus games, mod in chat wasn't 100% sure on that.

I really cant tell if my character is wearing a lady's tank top

[zkylon]

The settings app lets you change the highlight color.

EDIT: seems like more was added after I hit quote? Place it in the folder with the skin itself and it should work.

I spent a lifetime chasing 100% in-game completion, not achievement completion. The highest achievement the game offers in regard to the former is 75%. I'm guessing there's not one for 100% because Avalanche knew it wouldn't have the time to ensure all the stat triggers were working correctly... which, in retrospect, was a good call since the game does indeed have a couple of bugs in that regard.

 

[DexterPepper]

Yeah, no thanks!

If I had to do every race, I'd have given up on it.

 

[Dice]

Groupees BeMine 9 is coming soon apparently

These bundles are usually great, but at this point I expect to own most of the games in them.

 

[Salsa]

weirdly enough Saints Row IV screenshots are still in before-release-date private mode, they wont show up on the activity feed

should get fixed later

 

[Gvaz]

one of my enforcer frands just gifted me SR4

<3

 

[JaseC]

Yeah, no thanks!

I'll admit that I was a little miffed when I realised I was on track to unlock all of the achievements bar the two pertaining to completing the game on higher difficulties; getting them all would have been a nice bonus.

If I had to do every race, I'd have given up on it.

I didn't mind the side-missions, but blowing up the straggled sabotage structures and picking up the remaining scattered collectables was mind-numbing. I couldn't play the game for more than ~15 minutes at a time.

I see, I assumed there was one for 100% competition that you were missing.

I bet they had an achievement for 100% completion originally, but took it out due to QA issues.

Beyond the bugged resources, there are just some cruelly difficult challenges that I just had to skip for my sanity's sake. Beating it on extreme difficulty was cake compared to some of the 3 star races.

I had no trouble with any faction missions beyond the food truck one. But yeah, I think I ended at 76.xx% because of the pure tedium that was watching the radar.

 

[Pops Maellard]

I'll post some screenshots later; The Bureau looks incredible. Oh, and it has cards.

I'd be down for King Kong.
