Yes, but it was a daily so it was cheaper. Might as well wait until it gets back to that price/flash.

It's a daily right now for 3.74
Was a flash at the start of the sale.

As for if CS:GO is a buy I have to agree that it is especially at 3.74.
I was playing it earlier this year and was having fun with it even though I sucked.
 
I'm waiting for GRID 2 to be part of a daily/flash sale. While I wait, can anyone recommend a good adapter so I can use my wireless 360 controller on my PC?

I still haven't gotten a crate to drop in GO and I've put in 2-4 hours a week sporadically. :/

I'm wondering if those are tied to Operation Bravo, which I don't own.

£3, you'll make back from item drops rather quickly. CS:GO paid for all the games and gifts purchases during the Autumn sale.

Do the drops have anything to do with your rank when a match ends?
I played a good bit after they added the patch for drops and never got a damn thing.
But I was always sucking and near the bottom of every game. Once I got to the middle which was the highlight of my CS:GO career.

I got 2 items for playing around 3 hours, a case and a weapon worth 0.03. Can't complain really, the case got me The Dig.

I could use more space:

The 807GB free is essentially just wasted space since I'd only use it if I did a major organisational reshuffle (I don't actually have terabytes of gifs ;)). The other drives sorely need to be replaced with the next rung up, though.

I think you're getting to fistful levels of obsession Jase C :)

It's installed alongside the game launcher. C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\Uplay.exe.

Much obliged!


oipic, Phinor,

Thanks for the asistance with navigating Uplay.

no

if anything, I feel like I got better drops when I was at the bottom of the scoreboard every match.

As for CS, I paid $5 for it and I've made close to $90. could have made more but foolishly took my chances buying keys for crates.
 
Noticed FFVIII went to 33% off when FFVII became the Deal of the Day. Should I bite? It just seems unlikely that another Final Fantasy game will get a DotD slot on a different day of the sale.

Try playing a little more if you can, ( a little each day is best) sounds like your not reaching the time played threshold for the drops. Are you receiving weapon skin drops? The Bravo pass gives you additional Bravo crates but you should still be eligible for the normal crate drops.

Was there Borderlands 2 DLC or GOTY edition sale already?

And does how it work, when i buy GOTY edition when i already had vanilla game? Do i just get all DLC applied or its new game instance in Library?

No, no drops. Nothing.

I've even been sitting in GOTV to get the audience participation crate, but nothing.
 
I've won a game or two so thought I'd give back..Hopefully someone wants this. Think I'm almost a member (295 posts?) but, Where my Juniors at???

Seems like half the time I try to start Dragon Commander it freezes on a black screen. Lovely start to this game...

edit: Doing that verify integrity of cache thing and it's taking forever. 5 minutes in and it's only 24% done.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?
After two years of Steam sales, my 500GB HDD is full.

How do I sort installed games by disk size?

I forget what the views are called, but the leftmost one gives you a nice spreadsheet style with size on disk as a column option.

Man, I'm over a TB in installed Steam games. I might just delete some instead of keeping 95% of my games installed.

I use a free program called WinDirStat.

There hasn't been a daily sale yet, as far as I know. I have a gift copy of the vanilla game that I won a couple days back, but I haven't decided whether I'm going to keep it or regift it in a giveaway if the GOTY goes on sale.

My friend got me FFVII and The Wolf Among Us today for X-mas presents. I am waiting for Alice to go back on sale, so I can complete his X-mas shopping which involved Sleepy Dogs and Age of Empire II HD.

Damn, that is unlucky. If you are connected to a VAC secured server you should be receiving them. Maybe the playtime is not enough to trigger them, I would increase that played over the week rather than in one or two days to see if that helped. Playing an hour or so each day has them dropping for me regularly.
