CorrosiveFrost said he wanted to play

 

[Grief.exe]

So Vanishing of Ethan Carter is safe? Thanks Jshacks, I didn't know it was that close to release.

Love the style of humor Kojima has and brings into MGS5.
Don't need any more "serious" games. Give me crazy Kojima-style fun.

Just reveal it for PC already, please. There were rumors, right?

I remember someone posting entries on Steamdb or sth. like that.

Just assumptions based on Konami's recent stance and some retail listings.

 

[Robert J. Sullivan]

woops i didn't see his post, sorry

edit : putting him in reserve since he's from the US and RoR netcode ain't the best around

Ok, hope something good develops out of Konami's stance as you say.

 

[KarmaCow]

Anyone want to setup a Risk of Rain group for NA? I'm lazy.

 

[fantomena]

That WiLD game looked sick.

 

[Woody Invincible]

I thought to myself "Shadowgate is coming out soon, I should really go to their website and pre-order..."

Nope. I guess pre-orders on their site have closed, and it's not yet available on Steam for pre-order. Ugh...



To be fair, Idle Master uses the same method as SAM (or playing the game directly) to report to Steam that you're in-game. Also, the drop rate on foil cards is completely and totally random, it has nothing to do with your Steam level.

I am aware, that was my point. I downloaded Idlem@ster, and intend to start using it this week.

 

[Anteater]

ridge racer unbounded is kind of tough, but the game is pretty fun, I'll need to get a hang of the whole boost bar thing, sometimes i could refill them quick while just fragging everyone but sometimes i do incredibly bad

it's such a weird game to be called ridge racer though

 

[Uzzy]

Finally on NeoGAF, woo.

I absolutely hated the Tomb Raider reboot and I'm still pissed about it being exclusive to the Xbone. Can't wait for the entire concept of exclusivity to die off.

At least we got a new Witcher 3 video out of Gamescom.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Tell me about. I bought it for some star drifting action. It's not like that at all even with its drift mechanic. Should have looked more into it when I bought it. Was only 5 bucks though.

Just wait a year and pick it up at 5$ on Steam

 

[Tizoc]

About to start a 9 hours night shift. Then by 9:30 am I should be at American Express office to deal with a fraudulent transaction on me and my brother's CCs. Why couldn't these fuckers wait until next week to use my card...

good luck!

IdleMaster won't cause issues with Playfire rewards, will it? Does it register as time played on a game?

 

[Deitus]

Finally on NeoGAF, woo.

Were you having issues connecting too? I couldn't get GAF to load up at all from home except over 3G connection, but it seems to be fine from work. Hopefully whatever was going wrong is fixed now though.

I absolutely hated the Tomb Raider reboot and I'm still pissed about it being exclusive to the Xbone. Can't wait for the entire concept of exclusivity to die off.

I'm just grateful that if they had to lock any game down, it was a game I don't care about in the slightest.

But I'm with you on that. I don't mind exclusives as a concept, but there is just no reason for a game like that to be exclusive, timed or not.

 

[MMBosstones86]

You aren't unlocking achievements, so there are no issues with Playfire. It's effectively the same as idling through SAM , so yes...it counts towards your playtime.

 

[Tizoc]

good luck!

woohoo.

 

[General_Frags]

Don't know whether to laugh or cry

 

[Mono]

It won't mess with Playfire rewards and works the same as if you were in-game, so it does count play time unfortunately!

 

[Snakethesniper]

What's the cheapest price for Door Kickers?

 

[Random Painted HIghway]

idlemaster is awesome! Thanks to the two humble bundles I suddenly found myself with ten new games with cards and just had idle master fire over night. Already up almost 5$ after selling and have a few left on the market, may hit $5.50 or 6 just from those games. awesome stuff!

 

[gabrielt16]

good luck!

Oh man oh man!

Thanks for awesome giveaway!!!

 

[Jawmuncher]

I'm so pumped for Fable Anniversary.
The 1st game is one of my favorites of all time and yet I never played the bonus content.
So it's going to be like a whole new game for me.

 

[Uzzy]

Were you having issues connecting too? I couldn't get GAF to load up at all from home except over 3G connection, but it seems to be fine from work. Hopefully whatever was going wrong is fixed now though.

Yeah, couldn't connect at all. This data compression proxy tool seems to make it work though, which is nice.

I'm just grateful that if they had to lock any game down, it was a game I don't care about in the slightest.

But I'm with you on that. I don't mind exclusives as a concept, but there is just no reason for a game like that to be exclusive, timed or not.

I think I'm rather more extreme about the whole idea of exclusives, but on the scale of types of exclusive, moneyhatting a third party multiplatform game that was already announced, already in development and already confirmed multiplatform to become an exclusive is pretty bad. It might be timed, which is a little better, but I don't think that's confirmed.

I didn't expect anything from Microsoft in regards to PC Gaming at Gamescom, and they still managed to disappoint me.

Nice. Time to move out of couch play zone and back to office grindy zone.

After this Pyschonauts boss, though.

 

[Sajjaja]

How can you tell if a game is region locked? Looking at Max Payne 3 right now.

 

[MUnited83]

Don't know whether to laugh or cry

I don't see why you would do anything more than laughing. The game is coming to PC and it will rapidly become cheap as hell as is SE's habit

 

[Gunstarheroes]

Is Dustforce in a bundle right now? I've seen a few giveaways for it recently and i REALLY wanna get it so if it is, anyone mind pointing me towards it?

 

[Atraveller]

Check steamdb.info, it'll say.

That's where I'm at.

Doesn't say anything. But someone told me it is.

The packages tab, it'll show you the subs(versions).

It's in the newest Bundlestars bundle.

I have the xbox copy but never finished it, I'll probably pick up the anniversary and blast through it

 

[Sendou]

Interested to see how Space Engineers and DayZ will do on Xbox One and PS4 respectively. Obviously the big emphasis Sony and MS gave to those titles is because they are already proven sellers on PC. How well will that translate to consoles though?

 

[FloatOn]

After the rather disappointing Dark Souls 2 I truly hope Lords of the Fallen and The Witcher 3 don't let me down for my action rpg fix.

Tom Francis: It’s Time I Did Something About This ‘Gunpoint Ripoff’

... and so he did. He did a let's play of it. Seems kind of neat actually.

is Payday 2 playable at all as SP or do you really need to co-op everything? i.e. how shitty is the A.I.?

That dudes head shape is like an optical illusion.

That dudes head shape is like an optical illusion.

It's really really shitty. It basically only shoots at enemies, it can't do stealth, complete objectives or even pick up bags. Single player only serves as a way to learn the layout and the objectives of the levels.

Let's hope so. More so with Space Engineers. I'm not too worried about DayZ's well being.

Yeah, if I wasn't clear, that's exactly what I meant. I have no problem with Halos, Marios, and Uncharteds being exclusive, and I'm even fine with situations like Bayonetta 2 and Bloodborne where the platform holder is basically footing the bill for development from the start.

It's specifically cases where a game was clearly being developed for a multiplatform release and with a major publisher who would have no problem paying for it, and then a platform holder steps in and pays money to NOT release it on a competing platform (sometimes for a limited time period), that I get upset. That nonsense needs to die out.

Seeing the state of DayZ in PC and how slowly it is progressing I really want to see what they are going to release for the PS4.
