So, even with an approx 1 year delay this is going to be the first commercial UE4 title?

Looks like it. Epic's own UE4 game is still lost in the ether somewhere.

 

[Aerocrane]

but to jasec, they are 2 games

I just got excited thinking that they had sold the PC port of the original Sega Rally on Steam, but of course that wasn't it

that waifus vs robots game can look really decent

too bad it sounds like garbage

Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae has a demo downloadable from Playism.

 

[Turfster]

Minimum: 4GB RAM
Recommended: 16GB RAM

Uhh..

The answer is here:

Minimum 5 GB available space
Recommended 5 MB available space

The recommended version basically just redownloads the game to ramdisk every time, obviously.

Not sure what's up with Fortnite. Sweeney reaffirmed at the G-Sync reveal that it's coming and it's a PC focused title, but still no update since.

 

[zkylon]

really, i thought the videos look really cool :0

didn't watch the videos, just looked at the background quality and figured this be pretty crap

maybe not? sounds like it'll get old pretty fast

The real question is "how repetitive is the gameplay?"

yeah

that's cool

 

[ashecitism]

So playism brought an SC for BitSummit. Wonder what the Japanese devs will think of it.

Someone just friended me on Steam and offered me Wolfenstein for $150. I'm considering it.

I don't have the money, though. :|

Is there any way to scan everyone's Steam inventory for Wolfenstein and see if anyone else will let it go for less?

 

[Arthea]

guys, you were right, One Finger Death Punch is hilariously stupidly awesome.

edited: I have problem with "chinese" accent of a guy, what exactly he says in swords level, I have problems with this level and I'm not sure what he's babbling about, lol

I was just thinking about that game, looking through all the classic shooters I missed out on. Really wish it would come back to Steam, is there a reason it was taken off? Or was it because reasons?

Looking at TF2Outpost, it's got a going rate of 90 keys, so $150 is I guess a good deal, if you look at it the right way.

Just get it in a $5 bin for a console if you really wanna play it and wait until Beth and Acti work out their differences like they did with Quake 4.

Don't buy Wolfenstein for more than it ever retailed for, get it together man.

That's also a very sensible thing to do.

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Man Bundlestars has been stepping up their game as of late.

 

[Wok]

I know I'm late on this, but I really really really liked The Banner Saga. Great characters, interesting plot, very story driven and you get/don't get certain characters based on your decisions. Also very good music. I'd definitely get it for your colleague. Then await his inevitable depression on finishing it.

Thanks, I will get it during the next sales eventually.

Yeah, tl;dr, Bethesda hasn't bought Wolfenstein09 from ATVI, just the rights to future Wolfenstein games, if that makes sense. I talked with a guy at Bethesda, some higher-up. He didn't seem confident they'd be picking it up. It didn't sell that well to justify a purchase.

But it's RAAARE

AND I LIKED IT

Also, you're recommending picking up a console version of a game in the Steam thread and I just... you shame your family.

 

[Grief.exe]

I find it hard to believe Bethesda and Activision can't come to an agreement for that game in time for the new Wolfenstein release.

 

[corrosivefrost]

yeah

Haha, I was hoping you had some opinions on it if you were playing it.

In other news, all done:

Lots of companies pull stupid shit like this all the time. Look at Marvel and Capcom with the Marvel license. Look at Sony/Activision in regards to the Crash Bandicoot IP. There's TONS of idiocy out there to go around.

 

[DocSeuss]

As far as I can tell, Wolfenstein just didn't sell well enough to justify Bethesda spending any kind of money on it.

It's a dicey proposition but between getting the console version for peanuts or the grossly overpriced version on Steam from a flipper, the latter is a greater sin. I advocate cheapassedness over platform allegiance so even if it's not optimal, at least get your current fix for next to nothing to tide you over before committing to something you'll probably regret.

This is totally wise and sagacious. I endorse it wholeheartedly.

There a few reasons to buy one version over another. Platform affinity is not one of them. It should be a preference, not a curse.

It's your money so do with it as you wish, but I can't even bring myself to spend $70 for a delisted game on Steam which I made. I kind of wish I'd just take the plunge though

 

[CosmicQueso]

Wouldn't really be worth the executive's time to discuss it, let alone come to an agreement on it. Lawyers ain't cheap either. Then they'd have to set up a purchase/transfer or revenue sharing arrangement and for the dozens or hundreds of sales (or thousands at $5 in a Steam sale) they'd get it just isn't worth the time.

Disclosure: I really enjoyed Wolf when it came out, ET:RTCW is the best game I ever played and RTCW is the game which made me fall in love with gaming after a long hiatus. I'm a huge Wolf fan and even I know it wouldn't be worth it.

It sucks, but spending over a hundred dollars on a bargain-bin game is far from advisable.

I wish I could have Neverwinter Nights 2, Indigo Prophecy, and Wolfenstein on my account, but just not possible.

I take it boxed PC copies don't have Steam codes?

I do kind of wish I picked up on how Mario Kart-like it was before its delisting though, sounds like I would've had some fun with it.

Hey! You're back!

Todd is back!

Spoiler

I might be late to the party!

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

Did Blur have Steam Achievements? I forgot if the game was released before or after Activision made Steamworks mandatory for their titles.

 

[Tellaerin]

Ice cold.

Welcome back, man!

 

[masterkajo]

Don't know if it has been mentioned but amazon.com has the Dark Souls 2 CE now listed. Don't know if it only comes with a steam code or also a DVD.

Still no news about the Black Armor Edition. Sorry grief!

Nope, and the PC version isn't a great port (I think the online servers were also shut down).

Someone give me a key and I (won't) tell you all about the AAA game I'm making. I will however give you one peck on the cheek and a 2L bottle of Diet Coca-Cola(TM).

hey fellas, is there any reason why Steam would basically cause my internet to shit itself while downloading stuff? like webpages will load super slow/not load at all. it fucks my my family's connection, too. i get maybe 1.5-2mbps when i download and then i'll preload Titanfall on Origin at 10-15mbps and everything's fine. i've tried throttling my dl speed and it doesn't help at all. :/

Origin lies about dl speed. What's your max connection speed?

I actually have the same problem. If I want to browse the Internet, I have to stop Steam downloads. Otherwise, it is fine.

Please note Steam does not do this at every place I go. I would say it is a problem which is ISP dependent.

You think it's safe to trade for a Starcraft 2 key through SteamTrades? This guy has been doing it for a few weeks now and it's the cheapest way I could get one.

Hope they can release the edition with the Steelbook (without the figurine) over there too, it's worth it in my opinion but I wouldn't be spending any more money to get a statue.

Dark Souls II hype is the best hype.

I have a similar issue at my folks place. They have a really low bandwidth connection and poor router. In order to be able to use the internet and download with steam, I have to limit the download to 128kb/s when the peak uncapped is a tiny 370kb/s on average. My folks don't understand the why people need better bandwidth, yet they are happy to complain about all the things being slow or unusable

If you feel comfortable doing it try changing your DNS to Google's public DNS and see if that makes a difference. https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/

I pretty much have to do this on my computers on my current ISP. Certain downloads and connections kill the connection for the entire house if I don't.

Edit: Are you using DSL?
