Support NeoGAF

[dani_dc]

Merry Queenmas friends! I was going to give away some copies of Metal Gear Rising too but Amazon wont cough up the keys already so that will be a post New Year thing.

Great giveaway, started the game today and I've been enjoying it a lot, if anyone is put off by the asthetics of the game, just try to give it a chance.

 

[Angel Abaddon]

Oops. Bought Van Helsing, but since I was on mobile and only half paying attention, got the standard rather than the complete set. Sent a support message to see if they'll refund it, but chances be slim. That'll teach me to not pay attention to what I'm doing.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

Cook, Serve, Delicious is quite addicting,and I'm only two days in. I love it!

I bought it, but i've been finally playing Hotline Miami. Glad to hear its not a bad buy, i tend to like those type of sim games where this some interaction to be had.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I wonder if Rising will allow preloads

I sure hope so, because I want to play it day 1.

 

[mannerbot]

Hm, anyone else having problems signing in to GFWL right now? Tried Dark Souls and SSFIV: AE and neither will connect.

Same, a great little game, I'm about to face civil war which my ignorance brought on a poor queenie. (><)

GFWL is almost down as much as UPLAY.

 

[LuffyZoro]

Man, I've only spent like $10 this sale, and all of that has been on presents.

 

[Echoplx]

I wonder if Rising will allow preloads

They said pre-load would be available on the 3rd when the announced it didn't they?

 

[Arthea]

GFWL is just other way to spell a word problems!

Spoiler

sorry I had to (><), but yes, people earlier in this thread were having problems with it.

 

[Derrick01]

I noticed that I buy more games outside of steam, even at sales time. Steam really needs some rewards for buying policy or something and better community (><)

Steam sales have kinda sucked since they got rid of the meta games a few years ago.

 

[inky]

DmC was a Ninja Theory game though.

Yup, and it was UE3, although Capcom's own engine is pretty damn good as well.

Steam sales have kinda sucked since they got rid of the meta games a few years ago.

That's because people abuse them with alternate accounts, especially when they can get items or free games out of it. I remember back then, people with inventories full of extra games and TF2 crap were always adding me trying to unload their shit.

 

[Cerity]

just signed in using bulletstorm fine.

 

[Link Man]

Is UnEpic worth it at that price? Is it cheaper anywhere else?

[MisterLuffy]

What do you guys think of Slender: The Arrival?

 

[Talyn]

Still waiting for a better sale on the STALKER games. Doesn't seem like it's gonnna happen.

Hmm, they used to be on sale quite often last year. I wonder if the lack of sales now is due to their dev/publisher(?) shutting down?

Anyone interested in a $50 Steam Wallet code? Send me a PM.

 

[nexen]

Any of you guys Pinball FX junkies?

I'm looking to friend up with some peeps so I can have more leaderboard competition.

I wonder if people would feel this way if Valve stopped giving out steam keys to publishers at no cost.

 

[Arthea]

I thought, maybe it's too hard to organize and contain metagames when userbase gotten this large.

Why would you give that away? D: Save it.

it's too easy to cheat with stuff like SAM.

So being extremely generous assuming the current price of 20c per card, it would cost $1k to get to level 500 if you bought cards off the market right now.

Damn.

Very nice. Can you put preloads in different install locations yet.

IE I have Steam installed on my ssd, but want Rising on my Storage drive.

just signed in using bulletstorm fine.

I hope Epic patches out GFWL from Bulletstorm and Gears.

I'll play both at that point.

Definition of insanity.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Yeah, looking back it was crazy how many games I'd buy just for the meta game.

 

[mannerbot]

Why would you give that away? D: Save it.

Pretty sure he's trying to sell it, not give it away.

 

[fantomena]

People abused the system, so of course they didn't want to use it.

 

[PandaPandaPanda]

Why would you give that away? D: Save it.

most likely he's trying to sell it for money

 

[Vio-Lence]

Want Volgarr to have a sale, Brothers too.

 

[TheLetdown]

Yeah, that sucked. But I'd like to see them work around it or innovate, rather than abandon the concept. Integrated cards and badges is still welcome, but I loved the achievement/incentive to play a game I hadn't.

 

[-MD-]

Brothers too.

60% off at Amazon and free on PS+ in Jan fyi.

 

[Ensirius]

Hotline Miami for 1,69 €?

What with all the giveaways and all that, one can never be too sure what madness will strike next.

This too.

 

[Glix]

Hahahaha, goes so perfectly with your avatar.

Added you as friend too for PinBall FX.
More people feel free to add me when also playing that Pinball FX or if you're lonely on Steam

 

[Prelithe]

Far Cry 3 should run better in DX9 compared to DX11, right?
I swear, can't get a decent framerate out of this game.

I believe so, but I found that in DX9 mode I would get frequent crashes while fast travelling or entering/exiting areas. So if you CTD, you know what caused it.

 

[dani_dc]

Same, a great little game, I'm about to face civil war which my ignorance brought on a poor queenie. (><)

I haven't experienced war yet, I got murdered just before I had a chance to!

you don't shove an arrow that hit you through your body to try and make it pass through to the other side!

Nothing better than to be having singing lessons followed by decapitating someone and then going back to learn about flattery and dancing.

 

[Big-E]

Does Anno 2070 have uplay? It says it has Tages which I honestly think is better than ulay.

 

[Wok]

It seems there are still keys left from my previous giveaway.

 

[Turfster]

Does Anno 2070 have uplay? It says it has Tages which I honestly think is better than ulay.

It has both.
Yeah, take a minute to let that sink in.

Anyone trading snow globes (or anything, really), there's an easy way to do it now that doesn't even require having the client open:

1. Make a link directly to your trading window:
   1. Go to your inventory
   2. Click the blue "Trade Offers" button.
   3. Click the "Who can send me Trade Offers?" link.
   4. Check your inventory privacy settings-- if people can't see your inventory, they can't make you an offer.
   5. Copy the Trade URL from near the bottom. That's your link. (Clicking "Create New URL" makes the old one invalid, useful for if you can't edit or delete wherever you posted it.)
2. Paste that link either on the Steam Community or the NeoGAF card trading thread.
3. Someone else clicks that link and makes an offer.
4. You get a notification of the offer, and can accept or decline it.

All of this is web-based and non-invasive, and you don't have to be friends to trade either.

Just figured this would help those of you trying to finish up your sets.

 

[eyeless]

uh i don't remember cook serve delicious going on flash sale, must have missed it, what else was on flash sale at the same time?

 

[Derrick01]

Yup people are horrible and as usual ruin my day any chance they get. Now we're doomed to mediocre sales and no fun side games forever.

 

[Wookieomg]

I have a problem with doing this on a browser to browser. I keep getting an error, but when I do it directly from Steam it's fine.

Steam sales have kinda sucked since they got rid of the meta games a few years ago.

Even if you factor in what you bought elsewhere? I've only bought a few things on Steam so far, but I've also bought a few on Amazon, and a few on GMG - all redeeming on Steam. If you add it all together, still a lot of games bought, and they will all end up being

played on Steam.

I miss the fun of the meta game though..

 

[Big-E]

Yeah, take a minute to let that sink in.

Thanks for saving me money. Can use that to buy something else, maybe Gone Home.
