Support NeoGAF

[mephixto]

Origin seems dead too.

 

[GuardianE]

why?

To support the game and give copies away to friends, I'd guess?

 

[Last Baron]

Damn, I sold all my snow globe foils too soon. Whatever, I'm not an economist, #dowhatiwant

 

[Ranger X]

Ok I am happy to see everything is down and that its not just me.
I mean wow, we are so "online dependant" these days. That's actually scary.

 

[QisTopTier]

One more would do. You don't want to be unlucky with 13.

You're right one more shall do.

To support the game and give copies away to friends, I'd guess?

Exactly this. Almost no one has even heard of this game. Soon as I gave it to them and showed them stuff about it they got hype

 

[Leon Belmont]

It's up!

I just sent Enhanced Steam for Google Chrome version 5.6 to Google. If you already have Enhanced Steam installed, the update will apply automatically within the next 60 minutes. If you don't already have Enhanced Steam, you can download it here. Changes include:

• Added ability to add a custom amount to your Steam wallet
• Added checkboxes to DLC list on app pages, letting you select certain DLC and add to cart easily
• Added sort option to badge page to sort by number of card drops remaining
• Added card prices to market links on badge pages
• Added "cost to complete badge" to unobtained badges
• Added option to display advanced navigation on inventory pages
• Added foil badge and foil badge progress to app pages
• Updated Early Access banner graphics (thanks SolventSnake!)
• Removed function to add all ownowned DLC to cart on app pages due to conflicts with new feature

As always, if anyone has any questions / comments / issues, please let me know.

This sounds awesome, going to have to give it a try later.

 

[LordCanti]

Hopefully it will come back soon =/

 

[dreamfall]

We were going wild in Day Z!

And now Steam is down.

Sadness!

 

[KaYotiX]

poor steam......

 

[The Grim Heaper]

it's absolutely insulting being locked out of the market and not being able to remove my snow globe foil listing

STOP FUCKING UP THE STEAM STORE GAF

Steam sales are always a great excuse to grab some extra copies of awesome games for friends that may be less inclined to buy those games on their own.

I started FF7 for the first time before the sale and now I have all these games I want to play but can't until I beat it. I feel like I probably have 50 hours to go too argh. Not to say I want to stop with FF, it's just at my rate, I wont be playing a new game until February.

Are you still pushing out updates for the Firefox extension as well?

Don't rush it. Relish your first FF7 playthrough. It's actually not that long of a FF game from start to finish, depending on how much of a completionist you are.

 

[Kifimbo]

Maybe ModBot is migrating to Steam.

 

[alr1ght]

Globe cards Price increased in steam market with .05 cents
now avg. price are .20 cents

That's what happens when people can't list new ones. Everybody buys up the cheaper ones. Wait for the market to correct itself so people can list new ones. If you're buying, wait. If you're selling, you have to wait.

Just beat Remember Me. Overall I really enjoyed the game, it was a lot better than I expected. In fact I probably wouldn't have felted burned if I bought it at launch for full price. The world that was built for Remember Me is amazing, I love it. I don't think I've been that compelled to take as many screenshots as I did in a very long time. I think the God Hand-lite combat system is actually pretty decent, it's just a bit too limited with the number of editable combos and it takes too long to dole out the combo types. There were a couple of annoying arenas, some lame boss battles and obtuse bits but overall it was enjoyable. I could see playing through it again. Maybe on the hard and to collect all of the kick knacks or just to wander through that world again.

How does one take game save data from one pc to another? Is there a certain folder in the steam folder I should be copying over?

Some actually use MyGames in the MyDocuments Directory but most just spam MyDocuments.

 

[GuardianE]

Man, I guess I'll just have to hope that Steam's back up in the morning, so I can change the prices of some of my cards on the market before they go poof.

I just got to the

carnival area looking for Mr Sephiroth...does it even need a spoiler? Better to be safe I suppose

, how much more am I looking at? I'm not going to rush, but yeah, I'm ok with not seeing every little part of the game.

 

[RionaaM]

With Steam and Origin down, I was wondering... What do we have left, Uplay and *gulp* GFWL?

games that use the cloud don't need to be transferred. check pcgamingwiki for info on other games.

The Golden Saucer?

You've still got a ways to go, actually. You're maybe a 1/4 or 1/3 through the game, depending again on what characters you've recruited and what side quests you opt to do.

 

[Random Painted HIghway]

I was going to level the badge to 5 for symmetry with Summer but I find myself just irritated with trying to buy even on the second page of each globe.

 

[Ingueferroque]

I'm still looking to be convinced... wink wink

I think I burned past the some extra copies a while back xD

Do you have something in your eye?

Once those services go down we are back to storing games on these bad boys:

This reminds me of my floppy music thread.

Heh, when it's a great game and sub $5, sometimes it's worth it just to get others to experience the awesomeness.

 

[I H8 Memes]

Damn even when Steam has gone down in the past I dont remember the store page going down with it.

all right, thanks. Daunting but it will be done!

This will help a lot although it misses some stuff:

http://www.gamesave-manager.com/

I suggest setting it up with Dropbox. You also might want to use the option that stores each game's save in a separate file as opposed to one massive database.

http://www.desura.com/

Which isn't talked about much, but I tend to believe that's because it doesn't do anything really wrong, while not actually doing anything different from other services, rather than being a knock against it.

 

[Gvaz]

anyone else not able to sell?

 

[GuardianE]

anyone else not able to sell?

I think a lot of us are not able to get on Steam at all.

 

[Cimarron]

I was playing borderlands 2 Tina Assault DLC and the damn severs blew up on the last boss!!

I think a lot of us are not able to get on Steam at all.

Whoa, that thread is amazing! Loving the Doom E1M1 tune and Ghostbusters theme, they sound great.

You're right. I have several games on Desura from various bundles, which I never remember I own. In fact, I don't even know what games do I have on my account there.

 

[Garrus Vakarian]

Ugh steam servers being a pain today. If I press purchase and it gives me an error should I retry it? I don't want to do a double order or something.

Steam is back. Can't log in to Origin yet though.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I wonder how many floppies you need to store an average Steam game

 

[inm8num2]

I didn't craft my sale badge yet, goddammit.

 

[jshackles]

Are you still pushing out updates for the Firefox extension as well?

I'm still making updates to Firefox, but Mozilla has rejected the last two updates I've sent them. Their rejections have taken about 2-3 weeks each, meaning it's been over a month since the last Firefox version.

But now that the newest Chrome version has been released, I'm going to focus on bringing the features I can from this version into Firefox and hoping for Mozilla's blessing.

 

[Backlogger]

Apparently Steam and Origin were both hacked

Well Max Payne 3 was 35GB so around 25,782 floppies.
