If they win the entire WC, not today's match.

So, after the steam sale, I'd like to thank you all steamGAF for your generosity with the giveaways. I managed to get some games and save some money so I decided I would give something sweet in return. Also, please read the block of text after the modbot quote:

If the winner of this giveaway is like me and also loves to collect physical retail games, I can also ship you the game, you just need to pay the shipping fees. I'm from Portugal and don't mind shipping overseas. If the winner doesn't want the physical edition as well, I will open the same question to the rest of the gaffers.
In that case, please take notice that the cdkey will not activate on steam (because I'm sure the winner of the modbot raffle will activate it), but the game remains to be fully playable outside steam.

I have so much early access drivel floating around on my computer...

Half of them are probably abandoned by now.
Click to expand...

Thats one of the reasons why I'm a somewhat hesitant to jump on early access games and kickstarter projects, but I guess most of these games actually do make progress and get released (otherwise these programs would have long failed).
The only other early access game i own so far is Assetto Corsa.

A tip would be to join the official group. They'll post updates there and it'll appear in your activity feed. Door Kickers Official Group and the latest update.

Thanks, actually never used the group functionality before but it should be quiet useful for these games.

They need to win more than just todays game to win the WC, so even if they win today there won't be keys ;)

Edit: Beaten like Spain

Any sports fans? Amazon has Madden 08 and NHL 09 for $2. I'm trying to decide if I should even bother. I know they release updated rosters for Madden 08. I'm pretty much PC only these days but I could always get the new Madden on my good old 360 lol.

Eh, I always have my fun with them... I just wish that some of them would have more funding to be able to implement the systems they want. Lots of talent and ambition out there without the cashflow to back it up unfortunately.

It's been talked about a lot in the game's Gaf thread. They're not the same exact assets, though they are very similar.

You can see the similarities and differences in Kiru's post just a few above this one.
Click to expand...

Ah, I see, I still wouldn't feel comfortable using semi-modified assets (or even new ones that are very similar to their inspiration)

Ah, I actually never played it, IAP kind of put me off, might give it a try though.

Do you find yourself sat on a bus, secretly hoping some disaster happens and you're left without a bus driver, only for you to stand up and proclaim, "FEAR NOT! I can drive a bus!" and rescue everyone?
Click to expand...

Posh! I would if I were a plebeian. But I don't ride on the bus!

I'm more of a metro-rail guy.

Point stands, though. My sim training could have me piloting any manner of plane, train, or automobile to the high hills when our backs are against the wall.

And then when we get there I could create a self-sustaining enclave with my full agricultural simulation training.

Now I just need to play more of The Forest to bone up on staving off the unsavory populations.

Should be, at least a way to unwind from college before I go to work on some personal projects in a more serious manner.

Migraines are awful, know those all too well , good luck with the interview though.

Outside of the cliche stuff and bigger stuff (eternal youth, immortality, universe domination), I suppose I'd ask for the resources needed to make as many game projects as I want, that or improving my ability to act socially with people, though they're both things that I've been working on lately with, so far, some success.

Much deserved down time for you, it seems! c:

Ahhh. Yeah I've had them my whole life (doctors think cause of chemo.) Do they know what causes yours? How do you usually deal with them? I'm always interested in hearing what others' are caused by and how they manage them. I've gotten some good tips and given some as well c:

Thanks! I've pretty much got it in the bag. It's the second interview, so I know they want me ;]

Social skills are hard to improve. I know I want to just curl up into a friggin ball sometimes. lol
I believe in you though c:
What kind of games?! Are you currently working on one? Or is that something you aspire to do?

Are you using many mods? When I played it I rarely got any CTD and I was using some mods.
Click to expand...

Was doing it Vanilla. I've added about 10 mods and it's been doing it about the same amount. Going to try this fullscreen fix mod though. Won't be able to play again until later tonight or tomorrow though. Gotta go back to work soon.

Is there anything on your system that might be creating a virtual network adapter or making another hardware change? That seems to get a lot of people who experience the issue of losing access periodically. It could be some type of virtual machine, or in my case my Motorola phone.

When I plug my phone in to my computer to charge it the driver creates a network adapter used for tethering so that if I wanted to, I could use its data connection as an Internet connection. Steam sharing looks for certain hardware changes and if it finds one, determines that the computer is different, or different enough, from the one that your friend authorized and won't let you share. It would then throw an error if I tried to reauthorize using an already installed game.

It drove me nuts for awhile. All I need to do is make sure that my phone is unplugged when Steam starts up. I can then plug it in and sharing works fine.
Click to expand...

Thanks for reply, but it's not that as it's random.

I have 3 Steam Share accounts sharing their games, it'll allow a random 2 but disallow a random 1. Sometimes it'll allow all 3, sometimes it'll only allow 1.

I like you. Including TimeShift in there was a great choice.

It was cheap as shit in the Russian store. Don't know if it's good or bad, just that there was money behind that game when it came out.
