Well this is odd.

I'm playing a game on Steam. If I click "Shift + Tab" to talk to someone via chat, after about 15 seconds my keyboard gets stuck and while typing one of the letters will get stuck forever like thisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

Then steam gets in a loop of a constant sound error and the only way I can find to fix this is to remove the USB from my Keyboard and connect it again on my PC. I've been OUT of the Beta by the way.

Can anyone give any advice? Thanks in advance.

 

[Fuu]

So bizarre that the price error lasted this long and happened twice.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Read my post above

Can I buy through Amazon UK if I am in the US?

 

[Blue Ninja]

Happy New Year, SteamGAF!

 

[AlmostMilk]

Wonderful, more of my money down the drain.

Oh no. 50 cents gone. What will you ever do? *sarcasm*

 

[Glix]

JUST nabbed Bioshock DLC before the price got fixed, woooooooooooooo!!!

Super happy with my haul from the sale (especially after I grab Mickey from Amazon).

Only games I'm super interested in that I still haven't picked up but will are C,S,D and Stanley

 

[Tizoc]

I'm hoping we get the Ryo DLC for Sonic today. Should be fun.

Maybe the SART DLCs will release in January to coincide with the original Steam release date?
Hope there'll be a DLC pack for purchase...

What game? I've had the keyboard repeating letters experience with one of them, can't remember which one though.

 

[AlmostMilk]

Tomorrow is the last day of the sale right?

 

[Alo81]

I was gonna finally play Brothers today but I got like 4 hours of sleep and my eyes are wicked not into the idea right now so scratch that!

 

[MRORANGE]

Man, I've got such bad neck pain from last night, must be from staying up so late the last few weeks to vote on the 2am voting.

Happy New Year, SteamGAF!

The same to you as well!

 

[Beelzebubs]

It's on til the 3rd.

If you only knew how much money I dropped on this sale already.

Don't scratch your eyes! You'll mess up your cornea that way.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

I'm legit sad I missed that Bioshock DLC price.

;_;

Can I buy through Amazon UK if I am in the US?

No.

 

[crazyrabbits]

I think I'm pretty much done with the sale at this point. Only thing left to do is get the rest of the snowglobes and craft my first badge.

Now I wait for the Amazon EC sale. Have 7 coupons from buying 20-cent Darksiders DLC, ha!

 

[SparkleMotion]

I had to buy Bioshock Infinite to take advantage of the Season Pass price. Damn you Steam!

 

[RionaaM]

Seems like nobody read my post last night, so I'll ask once more before I desist

Guys, I want to buy Ghostbusters from GameSpot, but it's blocked in my country. Is there any kind GAFfer from the US who's willing to purchase it for me, and take payment from me via Paypal or a similarly priced Steam game? I'm willing to pay up to $12 to cover for Paypal fees and such.

 

[GK86]

That is what I get for waiting and not getting my ass up at 6 in the morning when I read about the season pass price.

Anyone have impressions on Sniper Elite (the first one)?

 

[Volcynika]

Try my raffle! http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=95482237&postcount=1158

 

[_hekk05]

It's on til the 3rd.

If you check a game with its default steam sale discount and not daily/flash/community vote, it says the offer ends in 24 hours.

 

[plasticpassion]

Do I buy bioshock at $10?

 

[Panthalassic]

I'm not in Canada at the moment so Steam won't let me buy anything I really want to buy a bunch of VVVVVV copies to give away.

 

[VikasNarula]

Anyway to get the mass effect DLC for cheap? i mean all DLC for all 3 games.

 

[TheSeks]

Tomorrow is the last day of the sale right?

Last full day, yes. Though it remains to be seen if the last 24 hours bleeds over to the Thursday update/10AM Jan 3rd store update. since that's what the Jan 3rd means, ends at that update.

 

[GuardianE]

For future reference, I think you can just buy the Season Pass as a gift in your inventory if you're not ready to buy the game yet.

 

[VisceralBowl]

No.

Exactly what I thought......well if I don't win the raffle I guess I will just forget about the DLC for BioShock.

 

[JaseC]

Have you tried purchasing from http://store.steampowered.com/?cc=ca?

No.

You literally had 7 and a half hours to grab it. Don't starve lasted 12 minutes.

 

[blindrocket]

Volcynika, you rock!

I spent much too long trying to find a GIF of a person scratching their own eyeballs then realized what the fuck am I doing

 

[bonesquad]

I've played a bit of The Swapper this morning. The game's fantastic. I knew nothing going in and so just figuring out a few basic mechanics was cool. The game can feel a bit 'gamey' at times with its test chambers, err puzzle rooms. Still, great atmosphere, style, and I really enjoy swapping around. This looks to already jump towards the top of my GOTY list...

 

[ashecitism]

Marlamin put up a post focusing on Remote Control: http://steamdb.info/blog/37/

 

[Gbraga]

Day Z will never leave that first place.

I really want to get it... just broke right now. Maybe next paycheck!

Glad to hear it.. everyone should play the game, it's definitely GOTY material.

 

[Hubb]

It left it briefly for Skyrim but quickly reclaimed its spot.

 

[Glix]

If anyone in this thread has never played VVVVVVVV, you MUST buy it for .50c. MUST

 

[The_Monk]

What game? I've had the keyboard repeating letters experience with one of them, can't remember which one though.

Most recently, GRID 2. I've had the same problems with Dirt 2 & 3. Guess my Keyboard do not like racing games? I don't have any accessories connected by the way, aside from a regular (wireless) 360 Controller.

 

[OcarinaOfDoom]

Unfortunate typo

But, I don't know what's going here. Is this a specific game, or is it all games that this is happening with? Perhaps try reinstalling the game/Steam depending on if it's one or all games.

 

[blindrocket]

Been playing about 15 hours of AC 4: Black Flag and I have to say its awesome. The sensation of freedom when sailing across the sea is great!

How is it on PC (mostly control wise)? I'm used to playing the AC series on PS3.

 

[Deques]

Can I buy through Amazon UK if I am in the US?

Use a UK address and you should be able to buy it. Most people use US address when they buy from the US Amazon store. I guess it works the same way

Hm, it wasn't that one. Bah. It was some indie game that gave me that issue. Can't remember.

 

[crazyrabbits]

Many thanks for Snow Globe 7, Seks!

Fixed! What a terrible typo!

Like I said in the post above yours, only happened to 3 games so far. It's really strange.

 

[Rhaknar]

ready for crushing disapointment when NAruto UNS3 isnt a daily

 

[Dreams-Visions]

That's not really the point. I didn't click on the game during the sale because I already own the game. Didn't see any reason to assume there'd be anything on the other side of the click to buy. And I was asleep for most of that sale.

But thanks for making sure I was literally clear. You've been literally not helpful while point out the literally most obvious information.
