How are people redeeming origin keys? I have tried both the website and the client, and the redeem code function will not work for me at all.

Probably because it worked for the first 20-30 mins. Ever since, it's been a huge mess.

Origin is getting hammered, just redeem later.

 

[ZeroXZee]

Do Origin keys also work with ModBot?

I guess so...I don't think ModBot can check the Origin (pun intended) of the key.

 

[DryvBy]

Finally found out what all this Modbot business was about. Thanks, SteamGAF.

Re the Origin bundle. Does ayone know if I'll pay a transaction fee using amazon payments (import tax thing?) I'm in the UK and last time I just paid using my debit card and was charged a quid or so extra (I'm skinnt at the moment but tempted with Sims 3 plus the rest.

And I'm rubbish at stealth, but Thief is a cult classic. Will I get any fun out of it or is it all about the stealth?

 

[Zeth]

Whoa - need Betrayer impressions!

 

[faceless007]

Insane to think that EA of all companies would be offering the best humble bundle to date and with steam keys to boot.

They're also not taking any cut for themselves.

It's clearly a move to raise the install base for Origin but whatever, I already have it installed anyway.

 

[jediyoshi]

With the suppressor, there is almost no noise at all. It is really useful a priori.

Its magazine size is also 20. Unless you just mull around in pubs, it's not much of a trade off.

 

[Kifimbo]

It was a problem with the auto-edit functionality during the thread cut-over; basically, it tried to edit out a key, checked page 1, said "hmm, can't see the key"... and then it was supposed to say "There are no pages before page 1, so I guess you're not going to find the key. Just send the winner without bothering to edit" but there was a mixup and it was looping infinitely.

What happens with the two early giveaways in this thread ?

 

[Milamber]

Whoa - need Betrayer impressions!

Check Steam Forums.

DON'T!

Unbelieveable Humble Bundle!!

Saints Row IV is showing demo button for me, but nothing comes up when clicked. Has anyone been able to download it?

 

[ss_lemonade]

Anyway I only use the credit card when I already have the corresponding amount in the bank, I'm weird like that.

Nothing weird with that. I'm going to apply for one soon and when I do have a credit card, that's how I plan to use it as well.

This has probably already been talked about, but the Thief Collection for 4.74 is a fuckin' steal.

How are the previous 2 games? I only briefly tried Deadly Shadows way back on the xbox, don't quite remember much other than the game being very dark lol.

How am I gonna use ModBot for Origin and Steam codes?

What do you think about adding a flag that concatenates gifts and makes one big modbot post for them after let's say an hour or something? I'm assuming there'll be like, 50 billion key giveaways from this humble bundle, and it would be a lot cleaner for the thread if it was all condensed into one post, possibly with the giver's name attached to the game names or something.

Edit: Oh god it's started already. Maybe for the future then.

They're even better, especially II.

I imagine a bunch of retards saying they hate black and white? I'm really interested in how this one pans out, want to grab it today maybe.

 

[Ledsen]

It's easier to use a credit card on the Internet though.

No it's not, my debit cards work just like any VISA or MasterCard.

I don't know if Grief or others want to drop in and add to to what I posted, but hopefully some of the community there reads that and understands what Early Access and indie mean

Got the latest humble bundle just for the steam keys. Don't think I will install origin. Nice.

Your bank is the one charging you the extra fee for either the international transaction or the currency exchange—not Amazon. So unless you've upgraded your card or your bank has decided to change their policy, you'll get hit with it again.

[Stumpokapow]

Will it work through the entires of the last few hours now or would we have to enter again?

ModBot is catching up--a few people might receive duplicates in the mean time. Sorry about that.

 

[Tenrius]

Just checked my bank, the advantages to using a credit card as opposed to a debit card in Sweden seems to be:

- You get discounts at some retail stores

...

and that's it. So I guess that's why people only use debit cards here :/

Same here in Germany. I have to pay ~20€ a year and get no advantages at all. Getting $400 a year for using it sounds crazy. I'm jealous.

I simply have it for international purchases.

Same here. The concept of credit rating does not really exist here either, not like in the US anyway, so using a credit card does not give one any advantage (outside of the actual credit, of course). Why would you need a credit card for international purchases though? I got several Visa Classic and Visa Electron debit cards and they work just fine whenever I purchase something in foreign Internet stores or physically travel abroad.

 

[Kipp]

those are prob steam keys

The ones I posted are Steam at least. I threw the Origin keys to the folks in the official HB thread.

 

[Divius]

lol all these mirror's edge giveaways.

 

[Mugatu]

Oh, oops.

 

[ss_lemonade]

Cool.

You know what, why am I even asking. I just checked the price and it's only 4.74! I think that's a steal, even if I only know little about the games!

So will some people need to redo their register PMs, or will it catch the old ones in the early parts of this thread?
