I'm confused.

About me being confused or for the same reason I was?
I thought that he was telling a real life story where he helped out delivering goods for extra pocket money and had some driver bumb him out of his earned money, when he in fact just played a bit of Euro Truck Simulator and didn't lose actual money.
tl;dr: I'm dumb

Same reason as you were. I was like "A truck driver that plays ETS2, huh.".

 

[Ruruja]

I fell for it, well played.

Coffee is gross.

Do what I did as a kid. Throw so much sugar and creamer in, it looks grey.

 

[komorebi]

Lol guys, what's up with State Of Decay? I bought it long time ago but I had framerate drops so it was just sitting there. I tried it again and I still have framerate drops. Then I've read on the community hub to try the Big Picture mode. Framerate drops are gone away and it plays 60 fps steady. W T F

Yeah this happened to me a few weeks ago and BPM was the only fix. Oddly enough my file didn't have it before and a new save file eliminated it as well, so it appears to be a bug that can hit at any time.

Btw install the Romero Mod!

Speaking of coffee, I picked up a bunch of Kopiko at the supermarket yesterday, reduced to 50 cents a bag. I haven't had them in over a decade but at that price I'm down.

 

[NingenJanai]

Coffee is gross.

The delicious vanilla capuccino I had this morning disagrees.

Might & Magix X Legacy Deluxe edition is $5.99

Lowest price yet I think? The game is SteamPlay btw.

EDIT: even less with 5% coupon pcgames5off

 

[Dusk Golem]

Coffee, eh?

Yesterday was not easy, decided to deliver some goods to get some savings at the end of the day and even if it was not really that dark, as soon as I started driving I got a fine for driving without my headlights turned on. Not even 5 minutes after some crazy driver decides to bump on me and out of the blue I got another fine, I paid around 400€. At least the goods where safely delivered and right on time but on top of that I also got 1% of damage on my vehicle reducing even more my income. Either way, I still found Euro Truck Simulator 2 quite relaxing while listening to the radio. I wonder if any DLC is really worth right now? I still have a lot of roads to explore.

I was about to say how unlucky you are and how there are a lot of awful crazy drivers in Portugal.
In a way I'm happy ETS2 doesn't feature our little country.

No excuse not to get the greatest RPG of 2014.
No, even Blight DRM doesn't excuse you. Seriously.
(And you're also getting Might & Magic VI on Steam)

Can I buy Deus Ex: HR from Amazon US even though I live in the EU? Also, would I have any problem activating it?

 

[Tizoc]

I would recommend this: Samsung UN40H6350 40-Inch 1080p 120Hz Smart LED TV, better picture that LG and low input lag...

Thanks, a good HDTV would also mean my PC games will look spectacular on them in Big Picture Mode >=3

Yes you can and no, you would not have any problems activating it. You would have to use a fake US billing address however and Amazon doesn't take PayPal.

 

[ExoSoul]

Can a Eurogafian/Portugafian help me buy Metal Gear Rising before it goes out of sale?
I wasn't able to go out today to buy a card in time. If you do me this favour within the next few days I'll give you a 5€ code. There's a marginal profit of 1€ in it for you.

Ramblings of a desperate man.

If you want to test the In Library thing I posted couple of pages ago, here it is:

https://github.com/petetnt/neogaf-monkeybot

0. You'll need Tampermonkey or GreaseMonkey or other that can run UserScripts
1. I tested it with Tampermonkey and GreaseMonkey for Chrome briefly and it should work
2. You'll need a Steam API dev key to use it, read the README on that link!
3. It's just an early alpha / something I threw together, so it's pretty barebones (and sometimes slow). Use at your own risk and YMMV.
4. If it doesn't work or you got suggestions, send me PM's or post them on GitHub, please don't post them in this thread

5. I have few other features I want to do when I have time

So wait, I can pay with my (non US) credit card but use a fake US billing address? Wouldn't that cause me problems?

Sorry but I've never done this, so I'm a little confused...

Aw man this is quite good.

I hope it doesn't slow down browsing on neogaf and works on with the Neogaf live thread chrome extension, but so far so good.

Yeah, just add an american, valid address to your account and use that as your default billing address.

Amazon doesn't really care about it and will sell you any digital item that way.

Weirdly enough, amazon also doesn't ask for the security code on the back of your credit card either. I never figured that one out.

Pretty much, yeah. I've never heard of it having any problems unless they changed it recently, according to my euro friends.

There's a mod that fixes that . In fact, you can add countries all the way from Morocco to Russia through mods.

I've been playing ETS 2 the past few days for the holiday event. Very relaxing and chilled out game. I've even crashed a couple of times because I just spaced out while driving around . It's really good stuff guys... definitely worth picking up for it's current 85% off price. You won't know where the hours disappear.

Also, I'm happy I now own a DLC that Jasec will never have. Take that you silly kangaroo!

[JaseC]

Called it

The game was a mess

Yeah, I saw quite a few complaints on the game's hub earlier. I bought a key earlier from some German site, after seeing that the game had been removed, but still haven't received it. I'm not worried just yet, though, as it is the weekend.

When does the event end? I see it's been running for a week now and nobody told me about it.

Edit: Bah, not again.

Many thanks! Was waiting for this one to show up in the sale.

Can't seem to find an end date mentioned anywhere. I'd be surprised if they ended it before the new year though.

From my experience, it takes about 4-5 hours to complete the events. You need to drive ~4500km with gifts. Add one or two hours if you are learning the game like I was. It doesn't feel long at all though. Time just slips away while playing this game.

Ah, that's not too bad. When you said you'd spent a few days playing the game I assumed the worst, haha.

No! Make him work for it. Or throw it up on Modbot and see if that is enough to make him break his rule of never entering a giveaway

[Chariot]

Gaaah, why?
I barely played 50 minutes, it was fun, but game just stuck here, after I killed Gimub. Didn't freeze. It just refused to do anything or let me do anything. No waiting, no desperate weapon pushing. Gnarnfnf

And why does this screenshot have two tiny black bars left and right

 

[Frank Jaeger]

So after the region lock update on steam what is the deal with Nuuvem? I would think that if a game is locked in nuuvem the same would happen in amazon us, yet I still see people buying from amazon here.

So care to ELI5?

As far as I know keys are not more affected that they were before, only gifts. As I said, I bought Mordor from Nuuvem and I am EU1. So, there shouldn't be a lot of problems.
So far. Who knows what Valve has hidden behind their back before the year ends.

I was not aware of this. Can I still do it even if I don't have an account/profile on that Website they mentioned? Thanks in advance!

Well you could just sign up for a free account on the site

You get one DLC for just doing that. Then link your Steam account to the World of Trucks account ingame and you'll be eligible for the event.

Speaking of weird things, I have this problem with Rainbow Six Vegas 2. If I use the mouse, when I move it the visuals stutter. But if I play with the 360 controller is all smooth. What can be the problem?
