Didn't this just come out? Why so cheap already?

It's SE. Quite frankly, surprised it wasn't cheaper earlier.

 

[Kurt Russell]

I was on the fence of pre-ordering, I find it insulting that they still manage to find a way to mock PC players. I wanted to create a thread but I didn't know if its thread worthy news.



The store page still states this:
Assistive co-op play – Players will need to switch between the two characters (Claire/Moira, Barry/Natalia) to overcome the nightmares in either single player mode with an AI partner or offline co-op.

The online coop is only for raid mode for all systems, on PC it will be impossible to coop the campaign.

Yes, I was talking about online raid coop, sorry for the mix.

Squenix hates its western devs and slashes prices immediately after release, then complains about the games not hitting their targets.

 

[Lomax]

Yesh, the decompressing on There Came an Echo brought my system to a grinding halt. Explains how 2.2 gb turns into almost 8.

 

[Echoplx]

Not sure if it's been mentioned but There Came An Echo installs a codec pack for some reason and it fucks with any existing codecs you have (I had to completely reinstall my stuff)

Just a heads up for anyone else that uses their own codecs.

 

[wilflare]

He needs to use flyvpn to register the key as if he's in America and then he'll be good

thanks - so even keys from GMG are region-locked now? bleh

Squenix hates its western devs and slashes prices immediately after release, then complains about the games not hitting their targets.

It's funny (and sad) how none of the FF games drop to 75% off.
But all of the Western games (and The Last Remnant) are subject to constant fire-sales.

 

[Deitus]

You could say it's a hella good deal.

You could, but you shouldn't

Didn't touch my CCCP, what specifically got affected?

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

Night Steamgaf, I'm off to go have about 6 hours sleep before getting up for work again in the morning for a job I can't stand hurray! (And to think I was so excited when I got it >_>)

I don't know why I'm venting to you, think it's the booze talking now =/

Oh well I've got Resi Rev 2 to look forward to tomorrow.

Rest as easy as you can! <3

 

[someguyinahat]

More Disney games are coming out today, heh, this one is interesting:

http://store.steampowered.com/app/346060/

So how many hours will it take before this game gets tagged as a Psychological Horror with Nudity?

I was close. The answer was "less than seven." Already got a horror tag. Ditto Mickey's typing.

 

[Echoplx]

Didn't touch my CCCP, what specifically got affected?

I use madVR/LAV with MPC-HC and it all got unregistered for me, my MPC settings even got reset and it was no longer detected as a media player on my PC.

 

[gdt]

Are all versions of widows 8.1 64bit? Amazon doesn't give any of the info from what I can see? I'm at work so I can't dig in more thoroughly. If not, can someone link the 64bit version on Amazon?

 

[Subject16]

[Newegg] Life is Strange: Episodes 1-5 ($7.48 / 63% off)

Is this region locked?

 

[SilentMatthew]

You could, but you shouldn't

Well... you can go fuck your selfie then. pfft. On all social medias.

No but all keys work for 32 and 64.

 

[zkylon]

how was it to add origin games to steam?

He needs to use flyvpn to register the key as if he's in America and then he'll be good

or can it be due to the fact that RER2 isn't out in his region yet? unlocks in 19hours

 

[Sarcasm]

Always have been, I can't even access the site in Taiwan.

 

[xBladeM6x]

how was it to add origin games to steam?

• In Steam: Add Non-Steam Game.
• Browse until you fine the .exe of the game it is that you want to add from the OriginGames folder.
• ???
• Profit

 

[Jawmuncher]

Did he buy it through the US GMG store rather than the EU? Capcom just locked their keys to certain regions for this game. If it's the EU than yeah it might just be the keys not showing up on the activation side yet.

 

[ExoSoul]

Oh snap! sad face Deity's, sad face

I bought the key for him - pretty sure the key should be US but idk :/

So you bought the key for your friend.
You both live in NA. The key he tries doesn't work when entered on steam?

he doesn't live in NA - and yea the key he tries doesn't work.
when I bought it from GMG, prices were reflected in USD - should be a US key right?

 

[Casimir]

So I've been playing around with Besiege while I wait for a replacement sound card to arrive. Even though it is still in Early Access, I've found the game to be quite amusing. Some people have been making impressive creations with the open sandbox mode, but the current build also has a set of challenges (with build restrictions) that should make the experience less daunting for some.

The key should be unused, but if not, please let me know.

Instructions for everyone:

I am giving away a Steam key. To enter this giveaway, send a PM to ModBot with any subject line. In the body, copy and paste the entire line from the message below containing the game you want to enter for. Confused? Watch this GIF tutorial or ask for help.

ModBot Basics:
- I really appreciate thank you messages, but please send them to me (Casimir, not ModBot!) via PM instead of in thread.

Rules for this Giveaway:
- If you are a lurker you are not eligible for this giveaway. You need five or more posts in either the current Steam thread or the previous one to be eligible
- This giveaway is a raffle. The winners will be selected by random draw 3 hours after the draw was created. Any games not claimed after that point will be given away first come first serve.



Besiege -- MB-16E5EE168EF8B8B4 - Taken by tioslash. 50 entrants total.

 

[bigzgod]

That's because GMG gave him the same key as Nuuvem gave, essentially ROW excluding RU/CIS and Europe, with their own subids.

This item is only purchasable in United States, Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Panama, Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Colombia, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea, Republic of, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Macau, Malaysia, Maldives, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam.

Only the countries listed above can activate the game.

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

i thought there was a special thing you did for origin games?

For the 6 hours I spent with DA:I, I think I had to add Origin itself instead of DA:I's .exe, but it might be different depending on the game.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Yes. Since it is a US key and he doesn't love in NA he will need to use FlyVPN to activate it.
Capcom region locked keys by areas for this release. Not all CDkeys are region free.
However there hasn't been a report yet of anyone getting banned or anything from activating keys from outside their region. JaseC has done it more than a few times for his collection.

 

[bigzgod]

Is this region locked?

It is not

 

[Stallion Free]

i thought there was a special thing you did for origin games?

In Origin set it to quit when the games close. Otherwise it will still say you are playing the game in Steam. Also, disable the Origin overlay.

 

[Echoplx]

It is not

You need to have a US billing address/credit card though and it looks like using a fake one doesn't work anymore, for me at least.

 

[Dio Brando]

I use madVR/LAV with MPC-HC and it all got unregistered for me, my MPC settings even got reset and it was no longer detected as a media player on my PC.

oh, thanks for posting this. i use the same combination(although with potplayer). will download the pack i use again, when i install "there came an echo".

I didn't get anything, because fucking US only bullshit =p
Not everyone can travel halfway around the world for stuff like that.

Actually, I've never went to any PAX event, I got the PAX code from some gaffer for BL2 golden keys.

God-damn that mission in TCAE where you have to

Spoiler

split your team in 3

.
The controls really aren't precise enough in my case to pull that off.

 

[gdt]

No but all keys work for 32 and 64.

So I order the disc from Amazon for my new pc, and I just choose which version to install? I need the disc for a fresh pc I'm building.

For windows 8.1.

So... I'm downloading a steam update at 1.7 MB/s right now.. for those who is asking why is this such a big deal?

I've never gone above 650 kb/s before in my life. Did my ISP finally took pity on me?

Also this Neweggs for Life is Strange is pretty great. What are the chances we'll get the same price during Summer Sale? or lower.
