Support NeoGAF

[Alexios]

Organ Trail just froze. I was near a landmark through a sandstorm, then suddenly the car jumped back some distance and is stuck there. I can click options etc, but nothing else happens... I clicked stop and it animates the dots indefinitely. This sucks

Edit: ok, clicking to go back to main menu then to continue from there fixed it, it reached the landmark.

Another yet minor issue I got was some menu items in town overlapping, the combat training and store iirc.

I just finished a run, all dead, one of them I had to shoot myself. The game is... okay. I don't know if it's an exact copy of Oregon Trail with zombies as I never played that one. It's just some basic resource management and mini games, all randomized. I guess it was ok for a phone game you'd play for 5-10 minutes on a train but otherwise it's lacking.

 

[xelios]

Wow, I feel like an idiot. I clicked Organ Trail thinking it was Oregon Trail. I didn't realize it until I read: "Organ Trail is a retro zombie survival game."

I did the same thing. I also read your post thinking you were Dice.

If there is an announcement for The Swapper, there must be a registry entry, right? Believe.

Spoiler

Coming to Steam this Spring. The Steam registry entry is here.

I played that at PAX. So good. Braid good, even. It was robbed at IGF.

Speaking of IGF, the winners will be announced next week.

 

[RionaaM]

yeah it's super short. I finished it in one sitting with a friend and I can't be with people for too long or else they start noticing I'm not that likeable

speaking of playing games with people, Miasmata of all games makes for an awesome game to play with friends. just trying to chart yourself back to the world and debating over which road to take and whatnot is great. we still haven't found the dreaded monster but imma make it a weekly thing with my friends to do a couple hours of coop Miasmata.

Lucky you. I can't make my friends come home to play some Brütal Legend. The reason I haven't started it yet is because they want to play it too.

 

[Salsa]

The Swapper has FTL people behind it

pretty sure that goes a long way for GAF

 

[ArjanN]

He was wearing a NeoGAF shirt wasn't he.

It was probably bible class.

I forgot to shut down the uPlay client for one weekend and now it says 52 hours played for AC3.

That's odd I had exactly the same problem with DNF. Even Steam is embarrassed about it. Think I've got 5 mins or so played but seeing the achievements I've obviously played a lot more. Shhhhhh.

 

[BrokenEchelon]

Got the new Steam update...

Those new drop down menus are hideous. What the hell Valve?

 

[RionaaM]

we need a phrase to do a secret exchange with other people to check if they are gaffers lol am I right you guys

like reddit and somethingawful

I vote for "did you shoot yourself in the foot?" hah!

"Yo, watch out on da Summer Seal or ya gonna get Steamrolled, nowymean?"

Yep I probably have 100+ hours on CSS but it shows zero. Its that way for quite a few of my games so folks think I never play anything

yeah fortunately I have a lot of gamer friends that like to coop through single player games

Is it worse to play DNF for 20 hours than actually play AC3 for 52?

Oh damn I completely forgot about that game. It took me a second to realize I had seen some of the stuff in the trailer before. It looks great though.

What's wrong with them?

 

[Momentary]

Today in class I heard people talking about the Binding of Issac. Never expected hearing that in public.

Yeah. I heard some Marines talking about it while I was on deployment. Surprised the hell out of me. After that we had a Steam crew and were trading data around so that we didn't all have to download the same games at one time when we purchased one. We all downloaded different games and just gave each other the ones we didn't have... Since downloading data while in a tent in the middle of the desert isn't exactly fast.

 

[RionaaM]

What's wrong with them?

They don't work on cell phones when browsing the website.

We have a La-Mulana related Steam announcement coming this Friday.

Lol... we weren't even allowed phones after some videos were found on the tube and you guys have internet and everything...

Why did I think it was already on Steam... I'm sure I had seen it get greenlit previously...

Ah well, I got it from gog anyway.

The recent update really improved Steam's performance for me.

It's been greenlit, but it's not out yet.

And yeah, sorry that we aren't able to offer Steam codes to GOG purchasers.

Didn't want one.

Get a grip, I just clarified my intentions since he seemed to think I was asking for one.

 

[thetrin]

Didn't want one.

Which is fine. We just had a lot of GOG purchasers asking about Steam codes, so I wanted to apologize in case you were part of that group.

Did Valve break the News feed for updates with the new community features? It's probably been like this for a while but I just noticed that the Updates filters on News page for a game often doesn't return any results. QUBE updated today and I know they've had updates in the past but I can't find what those updates actually did. It's getting kinda annoying when this seems to be the norm.

Saoirse Ronan could be our secret code word, as soon as I figure out how to pronounce it.

I assume people that bought it in the Build a Greenlight Bundle will, right?

 

[ShaneB]

Jesus christ. All I wanted to do was check out Anno 2070 and it's been patching for ages, and now it's launching uplay and updating this trash. Yeah, I dont even want to play this anymore.

 

[Stumpokapow]

And yeah, sorry that we aren't able to offer Steam codes to GOG purchasers.

The plan is still to offer them to purchasers of the... uh... what was it? Indie Gala? Build a Bundle? Bundlebutt? Bundle Stars? bundle where you could pay almost nothing and get a bunch of garbage no one was ever going to play + La Mulana, right?

Edit: Google tells me it was Groupees, apparently.

Heh... Being attached to a communications squadron building a network from the ground up has its perks. Plus I also grabbed a local phone with a data SIM card from that area and it was somehow getting a signal out in the middle of nowhere.

[JaseC]

So over the past week GAF has given me advice and helped me along the way to dressing up my scout!

Special shout out to JaseC, Vargas, and Zerokku for donating their old items, or even buying me a genuine in Zerokku's case.

Rickenslagger and Dr. Paingloss also gave me some good advice about crafting/trading, completely opened my eyes.

I've been combing my old uniques like mad into refined, trading, and got what I needed.

I have most of the scout weapons now as well, the only ones that I am missing are Crit Cola, Guillotine, Wrap Assassin, Candy Cane, Atomizer, and some promotional ones.

3D glasses? James Cameron would be proud.

Gamefly's having a thing

JaseC getting Raccoon City in T-minus 5

Nah, I was going to pick it up from GMG when it was on sale a week or two ago and stacked with the discount code, but Steam has a game + DLC bundle, so I'm waiting for a sale on that.

Massively OT but I feel like I've been haunted by JaseC all day. On the bus stop on the way to work this morning there was a poster for a film called The Host staring Saoirse Ronan. "Huh" I thought to myself "so shes not just some b-movie actress no one has ever heard of". Next thing I see is about 4 or 5 buses go past with the same advert. "Ok this is getting a bit weird". But then when I finally get on my bus the free paper that is usual given away on there had, yep you guest it an advert for that flipping film again. To further compound my madness there was a trailer on during the news when I got in. All that needs to happen to get me sectioned is JaseC to pop in here.

I want to live in your world.

Saoirse Ronan could be our secret code word, as soon as I figure out how to pronounce it.

This gets my vote.

I'll have to double check on that, but as far as I know, we're only not offering steam codes to those that got it through GOG, purely because of GOG's own policies.

Don't quote me on that, but I believe that is the case.

Just finished replaying Bioshock 2. Game aged a shit ton better than Bioshock 1 and besides the story being kinda bleh I very much prefer it to the original in any other way. Doesnt have a stupid ass roided boss at the end either.

the part where you

play as a little sister and see the world through her eyes back and forth

is great

I found the story in BS2 to be better than 1's when I played it last year. Much more gratifying on an emotional level.

Bundlebutt, lol. Yeah, it's in my December Build a Greenlight Bundle. I bought it on GOG as well, but I expect we'll receive a Steam key from the indie bundle based on past Greenlight games. Seems to be standard practice.

Plus this is on the bundle page:

I think the whole end game (like last third onwards) is miles better and more gratifying, but back when I played Bioshock the idea of being this dude just entering this world and possibly meeting Andrew Ryan was much more interesting to me than being prototype Big Daddy. I also quite liked the twist back then, as silly as it might seem now.
