Won the Crew from Cuban Legend (thanks again), but Uplay absolutely refuses to let me download the game, saying I either don't have an internet connection (I do) or sufficient HD space (I do, 200+GB)

Fuck this shit, Ubisoft.

Uninstalled Uplay, to try to reinstall it on a different HD.

The link here http://uplay.ubi.com/ doesn't even start a download.

I'm at a complete loss, what a fucking joke.

Edit- Nevermind, found the unbelievably small download link farther down the page.


Okay, long story short, Uplay flips its script if you try to change the default install/download directory for games, even if it's still the same hard drive that Uplay is installed on. This has to have been coded by monkeys.
 
My dualshock 4 thumbstick started shedding while I was playing Metal Gear Revengence. Managed to get it smooth again though, and it hasn't done so since. Then again most games thankfully don't have horrible, 5 second long waggle qtes.

Switched to an Xbox One controller when the drivers came out and have been pretty happy. Both are good controllers though.

My heart rose when I saw Nobunaga's Ambition on Steam.

My heart sank when I saw Nobunaga's Ambition is only available in Chinese.

Bullshit.

You browse the internet on the thing? While not ingame? I mean I sometimes use the steam overlay browser for quick info..which btw has tabs.

Sometimes I don't want to bother with Steam guard to browse the store, yet the client reminds me I should.

Finally getting some time in with Lethal League after a bunch of technical trouble, and goddamn is it fun. For the amlunt of stuff in the game, 14 bucks seems a bit high, but its really really fun.

Funny how when I idle a game where half the cards are worth twice as much as the other half, the only cards I get are the cheap ones. Probably coincidence, but It's a shame we don't have real info or statistics on if cards actually have different rarities.
 
Dang, I hate bug bites. Mostly because my body is really sensitive to them. I think a spider or mosquito got me the day before and now I have a huge swollen patch (almost as big as my hand) above my elbow on the underside of my arm. My whole right arm is aching and stiff right now so I can't move it much.

Any games I could play with only my left non-dominant arm?

yeah it even says version 0.9.blahblah so I had to make sure if it was in Early Access.. insanely fun though... just watching others after you get hit is fantastic

LETHAL LEAGUE IS SO GOOD YOU GUYS.

yes! I really really want a taunt button for when I just sit back and wait then hit a perfect ball that takes out 3 people..

please add

Atlus should just release their stuff on PC since Sega owns them now.

I want PC versions of the classic SMT games so bad :/

Hell, I just want localized versions of the old SMT games. The iOS English version of SMT I is the only iOS game that I actually like.

SMT x FE coming soon®

Just like Devil Survivor 2: Break Record ;________;

Awesome work Jawmuncher :) 463 hours spent playing games 52 games!

Congrats :D
 
Just got Unity of Command
Looks great!

It is, the supply line mechanics are on point. When it works and you have a large group cut off allowing you to roll over them it's great. When your opponent cuts off your supply routes and you don't have enough fuel to even breakout it's painful to watch.

Your post was the reason I went ahead and did it.
Also thanks for reminding me about DS2 :(

What does that have to do with anything?



Every time I play CS:GO, it's just TOXIC.
So I'm not sure what alternate reality you exist in, but it sure sounds like the grass is greener...

Go into comp (given you are comp-ready) and block communication with the entire other team. Every multiplayer game has a toxic community though. I try not to let it bother me and just say glhf, gh, gg etc even if they're talking crap.

um? I assume you're talking about TF2 and this begs the question... what were the 10 other people doing? snipers gonna snipe bro... it's like complaining about scouts not taking out sentry guns

While I can agree with that, I do remember being rather annoyed with people being afraid to die in TF2. I get that you don't want to just jump into the meat grinder and waste the life for absolutely no reason, but game after game was spent with people cowering around the corner from the objective, be it a cart or point. People would just hang back until the round was almost over, and once the warnings started, THEN start rushing the objectives.

Then, surprise surprise, we'd come really close to winning when everybody actually makes an effort to push forward instead of cowering.

Based on your games list: 100% Orange Juice can be played with one hand. I think FTL too.

Just played the Thomas Was Alone DLC. It's nice, but incredibly short. I managed to beat it in 40 minutes, and some of the 20 new levels didn't even have hazards or anything, so they were very easy. Others required some careful use of the jetpack, but I didn't have much trouble with them either, despite looking hard at first. I was left wanting more.

Oh, and when the credits started playing my mom came to my room to ask me what song was that. The soundtrack is still fantastic.
 
Jshackles's Idlemaster graces me with yet another foil. Hopefully this thing sells at the high price (Lethal League foil).

Also, i'm debating between some stuff right now, any personal recommendations from the peanut gallery?

Road Not Taken
The Escapists
Gods Will Be Watching
Shadowgate
Broforce
Halfway
Infectinators: Survivors
Overruled
 
I just came back from 4 points behind with Candyman in Lethal league using mind games. It's a really fun title and the net code's solid, definitely worth picking up.

Fuck this shit, Ubisoft.

once you get the DL to start, it actually lets you play once 20% of the game is DLed idk how it does it but it'll DL the rest as you play, amazing.

Oh man i would totally buy those again. same goes for the persona games too! Make it happen Atlus!

It probably wont :(
 
I should get back to Devil Survivor, one of the few localized games in the SMT line I haven't finished. Just got really frustrated by the enemies taking an hour to make 20 moves every turn that you can't skip.

check out expendabros for broforce.. I was hyped for broforce until I played expendabros

expendabros is free btw

road not taken and escapists look good and are wishlisted... shadowgate is too expensive for what it is IMO and gods will be watching got trashed by many

overruled is pretty fun but pretty early but if you can find a copy from a russian four pack it should be around 2 keys I'd think
 

JaseC

gave away the keys to the kingdom.
Hello Jason,

We are unable to locate this subscription on your account. Please provide the key, or the approximate time when the key was registered to the account.

I'm getting there. Slowly but surely. But I'm not ruling out the possibility of the wrong game being removed even after I supply the key. :p

I second that. For all the chaos that was going on on-screen, I found the game itself to be rather boring for some reason.

I did, i wasn't sure if Broforce was more fun with friends and stuff, like Borderlands. Probably gonna hold off on that one then. Maybe i'll just sit on everything until sales, who knows.

Can someone explain to me how idlemaster works? Does it actually launch games and just sit at the menu or something? Does the time that it's running count towards time played for the games you idle? It's not anything that can hurt your components, specifically the GPU, is it (I'm assuming it isn't, since everyone seems to be using it, but I figured it was best to check)?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

Nope it just tricks Steam into thinking you're in-game for that particular game. It does count towards your play time, otherwise cards wouldn't drop. You don't need to have the game actually installed, and it doesn't affect your GPU in the slightest.
