How is Dirty Bomb anyways?

I haven't played in a while, but very solid in its early state. Guns feel great, which is critical for me to enjoy an FPS. Teamwork is required and maps have a ton of options for mobility, which creates and subverts choke points at the same time.

Not as great when it comes to winning if you're into solo YOLO lone wolfing, but it's possible to partially carry a bad team, so it's not entirely dependent on your mates.

Bah, I was afraid that there'd be a cut-off point. I'll make an account, register my dusty beta key and then see if I can't squeeze a Steam one out of Nexon Support.

Well it doesn't explicitly say that there is a cut-off point but I imagine that they don't plan on checking for new registered accounts from now on because who would be crazy enough to make a Nexon account and register an old Dirty Bomb beta key now?

You could try hitting up some Splash Damage folk on twitter because they're cool guys.

It is a Splash Damage game which might be enough for you to know if you're interested. What I can tell you is that avatar movement and shooting felt great. It was like playing W:ET again.

Midweek: Van Helsing II -66%, Depth -40%
Daily: X-Plane 10 Global -50%

Got it, thanks.

BTW, do you really have to restart Volgarr from the absolute beginning every time, or are there at least check points after bosses?

No, after you finished a level you can run to the left at the beginning to get back.

Vangers is the only one I am missing, but that game doesn't look interesting :p
Edit: Thanks
 
Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask but mods on steam seem to have completely stopped working for me.

On the Rome 2 launcher it says mods are updating but nothings downloading and i can't play unless i delete all the mods. I've tried L4D2 as well and mods aren't working on that either, i've tried deleting/uninstalling everything including Steam but it still doesn't work.

Any advice? It's driving me crazy.

January 28/29, depending on your time zone. Doesn't look like there'll be a pre-purchase period. $15.

Screenshots show that Map screen is widescreen, with towns and combat screens being 1080p with borders. Makes sense. Some of the creature portraits need more than a sharpening filter though :p

Argh, I gotta finish Van Helsing 1 before I buy 2! Complete edition for $6.80 is hard to resist though.



Edit: Why does the Aliens Colonial Marines Season Pass say "English language not supported"?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

If you like or are enjoying the first one, do yourself a favor and stay away from the sequel.

gave away the keys to the kingdom.
Pier Solar and the Great Architects is 30% off. Also The Witcher 3 is 20% off, but it's cheaper at Nuuvem for $33.39, which is only like a buck away from its historical cheapest price. Not sure if Nuuvem still works for region free stuff though?

The matter of region-locked games from Nuuvem remains unchanged, which basically means: most are region-free, some require a VPN to activate, and these you want to avoid regardless of your stance on VPN usage unless they're confirmed to be region-free/just activation-restricted.

It's not discounted for me. Also from everything I read, the game is really bad.
The discount expired 18 minutes ago.
Whoops, that's what I get for opening a tab yesterday and not noticing it until now. Sorry guys. Also it's bad? Damn, that's disappointing. How so?

The matter of region-locked games from Nuuvem remains unchanged.
Oh that's good. I just remember someone mentioning a few weeks ago that more games on there were getting the region locked warning or something.
