How hard is it to play SR4 with a keyboard and mouse?

My first playthrough of SR4 I went kb/m and the default key-binding to switch super powers is annoying, F1-F4. Whenever I wanted to hit F1 I would almost always hit Esc by accident Other than that it plays perfectly

Second playthrough I went with a 360 controller and everything felt easier sans aiming of course.

 

[Turfster]

I plan to get a PS4 controller for playing some games in the near future.
Will get SR4 downloading later today, how big is it, 20 GB?

Nah, 10 gig.

Is the Company of Heroes 2 Free Weekend thing active yet? Whenever I try to download it, it wants me to pay money.

Restart your steam client.

 

[Anteater]

Let's roll

 

[luxarific]

Restart your steam client.

Thank you! I've been wanted to play this, but I'm going to hold off on buying until there's a version with all the DLC available at once.

 

[Syphon Filter]

When is the steam controller planned to be released again?

 

[BoosterDuck]

When is the steam controller planned to be released again?

soon (Valve time)

 

[Rhaknar]

soon (Valve time)

When will then be now?

 

[Turfster]

When will then be now?

When yesterday becomes tomorrow, and now becomes back then.

 

[crazyrabbits]

When will then be now?

SOON!

I started up Singularity today after some PS+ distractions the last couple.

Damn, it really is "like Bioshock". So far. Game isn't the prettiest but I think I am going to enjoy it.

I hated the colour grating in anno 2070, looked so weird

the colors are indeed grating, jaja

Isn't Saoirse technically a princess?

 

[rtcn63]

Isn't Saoirse technically a princess?

Technically she's a Highlander.

In the end there can be only one.

 

[Tizoc]

Someone needs to make a parody of Game of Thrones using GAF members, Gaben and Saoirse.
Just sayin'...

I skipped forward a bit.

I played it last summer and got huge Bioshock vibes from it as well. Definitely keep at it, I thought it was pretty solid.

I think I'm going to have to give up on my copy of Prey coming in. If it's not here tomorrow, the seller via Amazon.co.uk will send another or give me a refund. All I really want is the key for redemption on Steam... but it's not worth the hassle of ordering another one, I'd wager and chancing it not showing up again.

Any of you that picked up a bunch happen to have any extra?

 

[PetriP-TNT]

Did everyone get that GMG Thief voucher? -37% for a brand new game doesn't seem too shabby I guess?

NBA 2K13 is fun, though I suck

 

[KenOD]

A part of me really wishes that someone would make a multiplayer mod of FTL like that of Journey on PSN. No notice that one is playing online and interactions of other ships all work the same way (trading, battle, retreating, etc), all just an even more varied experience that one can still think is single player only as long as nothing is done too out of the ordinary by the other player and obviously no one tells you about it before hand.

It's fun to see someone play journey and get help by another player without knowing a person is controlling that other character until some time later when realisation takes place.

The only thing that could have possibly made me less confident in the new Thief game is mass discounts of the new Thief game before it's available. At this point I'd put my life savings on a bet that this game will be a complete trainwreck.

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

Does anyone who use Metro for Steam skin have any problems playing Source games? The overlay does not deactivate occasionally since I installed it and I have to force close the game.

 

[Anteater]

Is Sleeping Dogs set after some apocalyptic event where 95% of Hong Kong was evacuated?

I just pretend the entire game takes place at 4am in the morning

kind of wish there were mods for that

Apparently Steam Bandits is F2P but will be a paid game for the duration of its Early Access period. I better make a note of this somewhere so I don't forget to buy it.

2K was giving out two free games at many online retailers if you pre-ordered Bioshock Infinite for PC and that game turned out alright.

I wish this Thief discount was more widely available. I got no email from GMG with a discount code. That would have pushed me over the edge to pre-order.

SteamGAF meltdown in 3... 2... 1...

Haven't played the game yet

man you people sure are sensitive nowadays

unless you're complaining about the awful shop

in that case I agree

it's awful

 

[Tizoc]

Is it weird that I'm missing Derrrick01?

 

[Anteater]

I wonder if he'll be back before the new Thief is out!

Any idea if/when Tower of Guns is hitting Steam?

 

[graywolf323]

I got one too but I already have a copy of the game from a contest so I don't need the voucher

 

[Tizoc]

Wish GMG would let you use 2 vouchers =/
Well I have one or two games I can trade off so I could trim it down a few bucks.

 

[JaseC]

The game's Greenlight page says "before the new Thief games comes out".

 

[Seagoon]

Good luck everyone!

awww. I totally forgot that the GamersGate 20% off Compensation discount ended December 31st 2013. I mistakenly assumed it was like the 25th of January marking a year from when they finally resolved the issue back in 2013. I feel like one of the unwashed massed now, paying full price on my highly discounted purchases.

Good luck everyone!

Thanks for doing a giveaway on Strike Suit Zero.

Time to get in on the trading game!

I have a question. If I don't buy SR4 during the free weekend, did I lose and install and save files? I mean, if I buy it later, I have to download and start from the beginning again?
Never cared for a free weekend game before, but I am going to buy SR4 at some time, just not right now and I was thinking is it worth playing now if I have to replay it later?

I believe it has steam cloud therefore you will get your save back.

Thank you for the Hoard. I assume nobody else besides me wanted it

This is welcome and sage advice. Truly you are the Mr. Miyagi of these Steam threads, and I but the young Daniel Larusso.

I shalt wax on.
