Sweet, had no idea this was out. Downloading now. I assume since it's f2p it's just the multiplayer right now.
edit: apparently under maintenance... says to check back in 5 minutes.

I weep for your soul!
Not quite keyboard but hold the guide button on your 360 controller for a few seconds.

Turn-based tactical strategy game.
Wow, Banner Saga is beautiful. Looks to be a lot of fun, just played one match, first impressions that it seems like Viking Chess.
It plays well and looks good, really want the single-player version though. Got some network issues and won some my first match because the other player quit due to that. The marketplace is mostly cosmetic variations, bonus renown per match(currency) but nothing that looks like pay-to-win. Reading the website I think there's an update in progress since it's not totally released on Steam yet i.e. news section, new releases.
I think it's $30 or more rather than over $30

Highest from the get-go.
played the first level on the new unlocked difficulty
straight up end-game enemies at the beggining, and the boss has new moves and a different pattern
pretty cool

It twice as expensive as the pre-order on Gamersgate. I'm curious to see how much they'll raise with such a "high" price.

Step 1: tell us your Steam user name or link to your Steam community profile.
Step 2: wait for someone to send you an invite. It may involve getting a friend request from aforementioned someone.

Well, if I like the game enough I might give it another shot on the unlocked difficulty. The more difficult enemies and new boss patterns/moves sound nice but are the combo ranks more difficult to achieve as well? I'm by no means a pro-action gamer but I have been busting out S rank combos with very little effort or variety.
Being in the Steam GAF group doesnt really add a whole lot, if you want Steam friends, just say your Steam name and ask for people to friend you from time to time
cant tell yet
going for full-on SSS in each level (on the harder difficulty) should prove to be a decent challenge

I bought Dragonborn and Ys Chronicles+ with hat money. Shit's great. People get to play virtual dress-up and I get games.
I gave most of my good TF2 items away a while ago before the market was more streamlined
looked up the prices of some of that stuff and I could have made a lot of dough, but eh
nothing crazy though like those $100 items. Biggest thing I have right now is one that' s $5 I think
it really is weird how exploitable this is, with people idling on multiple accounts and all that
seems like free money if you have the time

They are going to hit their mark in 24 hours, so it looks like they made the right choice. It's still going to be 15 on launch, so 30 for beta access/game/hat doesn't seem too bad.
You can't trade items unless you assign a payment method to each of those accounts. I don't think Valve would like if the same credit card was assigned to 5+ accounts.
I can't be bothered to figure out a way to create multiple payment options. Or pay 5 dollars per account (the minimum you have to put on your steam wallet to make a TF2 Shop Purchase) to possibly profit from 2 dollar hats.
Not worth it.
Yeah, it's really good.
The new Onslaught expansion is supposed to hit in a few days and adds a ton of stuff (like 4 new modes, 3 new maps, new weapons, etc.), so it only gets better from here.
ah interesting, I figured this was just any item purchase

I wish Brutal Legend would unlock at midnight v_v
I loved it, but then again I'm a huge metal fan so I absolutely adored the world itself, references, soundtrack and the characters / guest appearances. The RTS gameplay is pretty fun if I do say so myself.

Can't find you on Steam, are you sure your ID is "omg_mjd"?Also a new gaffer here, just wanted to chime in with my steam id: omg_mjd
No one on my list yet. RL friends aren't into gaming at all (the fools).
Thanks and hope to see you guys around.
Me too, though first I'm going to play Runner 2 before starting BL. What time do games usually unlock?

In Central time they unlock at 12pm.
It had a pretty cool soundtrack at least. Game was kinda garbage though.
Cruising around the world listening to One Shot at Glory was pretty awesome.
Yup! omg_mjd is my steam ID, though my account name is different.
EDIT: Weird I tried searching for myself and nothing showed up too. My privacy settings for my profile is "public" though. My Steam ID url is: http://steamcommunity.com/id/omg_mjd

Just as a PSA as a people going on forward and to bypass a frustration I've encountered time and time again with Steam IDs and whatnot. If you want people to add you, just supply your Steam Community URL to make it easy instead of your listing an ID, since people seem to use that term interchangeably with the login name, display name, and custom Steam Community URL tag.
I'm not good with North American time zones. Is that GMT-5 or -8?
I was just going to suggest this. It's the easiest way of all to add people on Steam.
By the way, now we're doing this, this is my ID in case someone's bored and wants another name on their friends list.
Gotta say, UT2k4 aged pretty poorly. I don't remember it being so floaty and the guns feeling so crappy. UT99 was even worse.
Really makes you appreciate Carmacks engines, Quake 1/2/3 still feel great to play, Quake Live is basically Q3 engine and its the smoothest game around

It seems like they changed how betas are handled. If you opt into the beta then you won't have to opt in again when it's over and a new one begins. You could always be on the beta client.
Nah man, you can't ruin my nostalgia just like that. I hope you're wrong, and it's only something wrong with your PC
15:00 here then. I'll be working for 3 more hours, but tomorrow night you can bet I'll be

example to give an idea to those unfamiliar with the market:
=
you gotta sell a shit ton if you dont have any truly special stuff
I'm impressed you got those crates to sell for anything greater than 2 cents. Market's confusing as shit, but hey you're almost to Brutal status!

ut 99 and 2k4 are still incredible.
Completely disagree. I will say though, the UTComp(IIRC) mutator is vital. Brightskins and especially hitsounds makes the game much better.
