Support NeoGAF

[Turfster]

If GAF wants to farm the Dino D-Day one I can help as I already got it. You need to pick up 15 presents dropped when you kill players on the Snowy Park map in a single game. Someone should create a private game for it so random people don't start trying to play for real.

There were like 5 empty servers with the map when I did it (after you left that one server with people on it =p)

 

[RoadHazard]

Ok, seriously Steam, stop being broken.

On this page everything looks great:

But then I click the red arrow thing to get to my inventory, and this is what I see:

I hate you, Steam.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Goddammit, my Portal 2 gift copies aren't showing up and neither are the things I won

 

[SteveWinwood]

I'm missing out on free stuff arghhhhhhhhhhhh

same here

 

[Fare Godmace]

Are you guys seeing your inventories using Steam or store.steampowered.com?

I'm from Europe and the Steam tab of the inventory still doesn't appear

 

[Toma]

50% off a valve game and a copy of .....


WTF is a SpaceChem?

Well..

 

[CecilRousso]

I got the Pendulo adventure catalog, Fable 3 (I figure I won’t play long enough to even get to the end part that everyone hates) and Singularity.

The part that everyone hates? It´s equally bad throughout the whole game.

I just won´t get why people keep buying this game despite having other games to play and all these warnings. No wonder people end up with crazy backlogs on Steam.

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Oh grand, a 50% off Valve titles coupon.

That's be so useful if I didn't already own every last game they make.

I could make good use of it.

They have me around telling them the game isn't that bad and that I actually enjoyed it.

I am the dark side.

 

[ROBOKITTYZILLA]

Should I take the plunge on Edge and Anomaly to earn the Holiday achievement or wait for a 75% off sale? Can you get the achievements after the day for those objectives have passed? I believe you could do this during the Summer sale.

An amazing puzzle game.

 

[Card Boy]

Do you want that Deepsilver coupon? I've been waiting for Sacred 2 to drop..

Its for after the Steam sale. 2nd Jan to March something 2012.

 

[RoadHazard]

I get the same result either way.

The point of the coupons is not for you, it's for you to gift. When your friend creates a Steam account for the first time in February, they will want the coupon. I'm serious. That's the entire purpose of the coupon system.

Savvy, regular Steam users already know how to game the sales. They don't need coupons. When was the last time you bought anything that wasn't on sale?

 

[Madrugador]

WTF Valve, It's been five hours already and I still can't check my inventory

 

[Volcynika]

Savvy, regular Steam users already know how to game the sales. They don't need coupons. When was the last time you bought anything that wasn't on sale?

Umm. I'll think of it in a minute....

I'm always up for that if anyone does that.

Vamp said he's setting up a server later tonight.

Oh that's right. Ok

 

[Sblargh]

Ok, I'm not pleased at all at not knowing the name of the games.
I'm sorry Gabe for not recognizing everything just by looking at the pic.

 

[Eusis]

Savvy, regular Steam users already know how to game the sales. They don't need coupons. When was the last time you bought anything that wasn't on sale?

When it was something I wanted and just came out? Though the lack of new Valve games in that period only reinforces your point.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Oh dear. I hope the servers catch up. I bought Portal 2 to gift, but haven't received an email confirming my order (or Portal 2 in my inventory.)

Hopefully I'm not boned. At worst, it's only $7.50.

 

[jaundicejuice]

In the past the answer has been no.
I really don't like the way the bundles are done this time; too many games, too much overlap. I liked last years 4 game bundles plus the daily Indie game was neat.

Sadness. I think it's a missed opportunity to reach more future customers for indie studios.

Save it for Half Life: Episode 3.

 

[Jzero]

Don't have any of the games for the objectives ;_;

 

[Turfster]

I'm from Europe and the Steam tab of the inventory still doesn't appear

Also from europe, got it here.

 

[Nirolak]

Save it for Half Life: Episode 3.

It expires on March 1st.

Edit:

And excludes titles released after January 2nd.

Grand.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

So I bought Blocks that Matter and there is no icon and no picture in Grid view. Is this the case for everyone?

 

[GDJustin]

Thinking about Orcs Must Die... nothing else for me today!

 

[Taco_Human]

Edit: Derp. I thought I clicked PM

 

[RoadHazard]

It expires on March 1st.

...and can only be used on games released before January 2nd, right?

EDIT: Yeah.

 

[ROBOKITTYZILLA]

It expires on March 1st.

Expiration dates? That's terrible then.

 

[Card Boy]

What are the chances Counter-Strike GO comes out before March 1?

Savvy, regular Steam users already know how to game the sales. They don't need coupons. When was the last time you bought anything that wasn't on sale?

Well, yeah, but who's gonna want Sniper: Ghost Warrior for 25% off next year? That's what I got as well as the 50% off Valve coupon, and it's utterly useless as a trade. Like I said before, thanks but no thanks.

 

[Nirolak]

...and can only be used on games released before January 2nd, right?

Correct, which are basically all going to be on a larger sale during this sale.

 

[ROBOKITTYZILLA]

So I bought Blocks that Matter and there is no icon and no picture in Grid view. Is this the case for everyone?

Full size image for me. Might work itself out when Steam recovers from the sales traffic.

 

[RoadHazard]

Correct, which are basically all going to be on a larger sale during this sale.

Yeah. So those coupons are mostly 100% useless.

That's why, if I win any coals, I probably won't trade them in for gifts. I'd rather take my microscopic chances of winning one of the 1151 prices in the draw than get a useless coupon.

Instead of apologizing to Gabe just scroll through by clicking on the little white boxes on the bottom.

Even my Origin coupons gave me 60% and let me use it on anything in the store. : (

 

[Vamphuntr]

Lord Gabe better allow me to transform coupons into coal.

 

[Snuggles]

Can't check Steam right now, but if I receive one of those Valve coupons I think I'll finally get around to buying Half-Life 1. I've only played about half way through the PS2 version, and that was like a decade ago. I should probably give it a shot.

 

[Sblargh]

Instead of apologizing to Gabe just scroll through by clicking on the little white boxes on the bottom.

I just saw that. It's beautiful. Nice one, steam, you win this time.

 

[SmithnCo]

Viewing inventory works fine for me now through the gift pile link, too bad I still only have one prize.

 

[Rocket Scientist]

Bring on day 2.

 

[Vamphuntr]

You cannot use them during the sale. Only after the sale.

 

[SephirothRK]

Still nothing in Steam Inventory.

 

[TGMIII]

Still getting nothing : (
