This would explain why my screenshots from the press build didn't show up on my activity log. Same thing for achievements and playtime.
Destiny is Activision.
Probably more akin to DayZ then an actual MMO.
There was some oddities going on with the release date for the game. I think it was originally the 23rd. Which leads to this:
For example, games that are in closed beta may be accessible to some people, but there are certain Steam community features that are set to "Private", which causes screenshots to be blocked from being uploaded as publicly viewable, no playtime is recorded, and if your friends look at you in their friends list, you will show up as "In-Game", but no game name is displayed.
Man, I'd do this manually for $1 per game. Yeah, I value my free time that much
That's why you should keep pretty much all your games installed. Of course, in your particular case you'll need a whole data center to storage your stuff, but in the case of a regular Steam user there's no excuse!

Still waiting on Revengence...
The thumbnail does show the logo and a running time of 1:18 or so, so there's probably something to show.

I know. These deals aren't made in a complete vacuum.
Ah that explains it I guess, although I was able to see my friend playing it last night too. But yeah none of those other things were working right.
On a side note the game is pretty fun so far. I want to keep playing it now but I'm afraid I'll lose track of time and miss the Sony conference in an hour and a half lol.
Not if you're just using it to idle. Unlocking achievements is another thing -- in the past, Valve didn't care at all about people using saves to unlock achievements, but its stance may have changed in light of the revamped Steam Community and the achievement showcase.
They should just be DLC Characters for Sonic All Star Racing Transformed.
We already got Danica Patrick, so why not.
Also, does Valve really ban? Because I know a lot (A LOT) of people that cheated for years online and I don't see them banned.

Well, optimistically, when Respawn was asked on Twitter about a Steam release, the person was just told that distribution arrangements will be detailed in the future, so at least there was no outright rejection of the idea.
To be honest, I just assume that anybody idling for cards has a dedicated games/Steam drive.
Sure, if you have a large library, you can't keep everything installed, but in such cases, say, a 2TB drive is more than enough to keep installed the games you're actually playing while having the free space to juggle card games and the like.Stumpokapow
listen to the mad man
As far as I know, just running a little behind due to an onslaught of people using the my loot function
Good to hear. I was planning to get Splinter Cell: Blacklist this Friday, but I might get Saints Row instead. The more I hear about it, the more interested I am.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I do always enjoy when there is another ban wave and cheaters go on the Steam forum either trying to justify their actions or threatening Valve with legal action.

Just got my message. Thanks.

I'm really tempted to purchase the Early Access for Sir, You Are Being Hunted but the last few weeks have already been disastrous for my wallet :/
This was rumored as some sort of expansion to EU. Wonder what it'll be.
So there's still hope! I guess I'll just have to wait.

VAC bans are done in waves, IIRC, though I'm not familiar with how long they last -- in Steam's early days the period was a year. In regard to Steam accounts in general, these days Valve restricts account functionality rather than banning outright so users who have transgressed can at least still access their games.
Edit: Apparently, VAC bans have been permanent since 2005.
Edit edit: As Sinine says, VAC bans and Steam account restrictions are entirely separate.

Aw yeeeeees. Day 1, whatever it turns out to be.

Huh, my badges list seems a lot smaller for some reason. A lot of the games for which I got all my card drops vanished from the list...
same here.
I've seen the art assets but it would be really great to see the game in motion.
It promotes games you have recently played. In card terms, all the early games that you got cards for will be gone from the list unless you have played them for other reasons (you freak).
From Gamereactor.no. A journalist saw it.
YES.
Now I can get The Bureau for free by preordering a good game.
I will probably buy The Bureau before EW comes out.

Nicalis is doing the Port right? Why havent they already uploaded the trailer? Well... its because Mcmillen is trolling.
Given "XCOM EW" is mentioned in the Enemy Unknown depot list, I'd say it's DLC, not a standalone title.

With all the hype for Saint's Row IV I'm contemplating beating myself up for skipping on the Deep Silver bundle a few weeks ago. SR II and SR III full package, ugh...
I know I didn't buy it because I didn't want Dead Island, but there were surely individual key.
What a moron.
On a side note I just begun AC: Revelation. Boring tutorial and same old abysmal meta story. Let's hope for a same old fun time on roofs.

These were the 3 keys provided with the bundle:
- Risen 2, Sacred 2 Gold, Saints Row 2, and Saints Row: The Third
- Dead Island GOTY and Saints Row: The Third - The Full Package (DLC)
- Metro 2033, Risen, and Sacred Citadel Steam Key
Yeah, every video I've seen of The Bureau has made me interested in it. I told myself I'd wait for GAF feedback before getting it, though. Don't care about reviews.
I'll spare you my The Bureau apologist lecture because of your spoiler tag.
Shit.
Alright guys, got my jarate made this morning
and ready to play some Spelunky and F.E.A.R. before class.
You gotta be careful in those threads, they are just mass banning right now to trim the heard.
Stay in the Steam thread where its safe.

Does Origin register old CD keys? I just found my Command & Conquer: Red Strike CD set and it would be nice to convert it to a digital format.
He'll be back in a month.
Grief will protect us.

Salsa gets banned all the time, guys.
Mmh, I could not have totally avoided Dead Island then. Still, moron, moron, moron.
The one and only modern PC gaming rule, always buy bundles ^_^
