What is this?:
This is a time when SteamGAF can get together to play CS:GO. We will be playing casual matches, players from all skill levels are welcome!
When we are playing: Estimate Time
What we are playing:
We are playing public matches through the casual matchmaking system. Due to the limitations of the party system there are only 10 spots available in the party. After the party is full, we will be placed in a public server where anyone can join the game.
How to join us:
At the designated time I will make another post here announcing that we are starting. Add me as a friend on steam and through the main menu join the same game that I am in at that time.
In the future:
If we have enough consistent players, we may consider setting up or renting a server for drop in drop out gaf matches.
Come join us and have fun!

I can think of a few games with worse cliffhangers than Half-Life 2.

Half-Life 2: Episode Two being one of them.

Go ahead, make your list!
I've honestly stopped caring at this point since its been so long. I just figure when it comes out or actually has concrete information that it exists, then I'll let the hype take me over. It's been so long since episode 2 and I got tired of hoping that maybe at the next game convention we might see the conclusion to Gordon Freeman's story.

It's basically a joke at this point, compounded only by the fact that Valve refuses to even answer questions about it. If they said "Half-Life 3 and/or Half-Life 2 Episode 3 isn't happening," that would be the end of it.
by far the best indieroyale in a long time too

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
All we need is some Sony talk and a few Borderlands 2 raffles and I'm sure we could finally rid ourselves of the scourge of morningbus.

The ping killed the fun for me 200ms is to high i feel like I am late 2 or 3.
Kickass. I've been itching to get more into CS. I'm pretty terrible, but when I do play I tend to play respawn games just so I can get more active practice in rather than just spectating. Not a fan of most pub matches I've joined.

If only casual CSGO matches wouldnt be such a clusterfuck lol. Tried playing casual earlier after around 100 hours of competitive and it just feels like there are too many players on the maps lol.
Might join in on the fun though if the ping happens to be acceptable and stuff.
I say we hit two birds with one stone and give out some Borderlands 2 Vita bundles.

Is this a thing now? I paid $5 for it just yesterday.
I think it happens very rarely and definitely not for all bundles unless they changed something. I remember it happening only 2-3 times before.

I just tried out Trail of Ibn Battuta and when you fire the Skorpion, it makes 7 gunshot noises but you only fire 4 bullets. This game oozes quality.
Sounds like they have a better eye/ear for details than Double Helix, at least...

That seems like a pretty big "fuck you" to everyone who paid more.
I paid only less than a dollar more, so it's not a HUGE deal to me, but still.
I've never liked Indie Royale's price system. It constantly gets raised. I kinda wish it would be at a fixed price, even if that price is initially a bit more. They almost always lose sales from me because I didn't get in "in time."
Edit: The bonus game being non-Steam and non-Desura also kinda sucks.
Another edit: The bonus game IS Desura...my bad.

Ahhh yeeeah!
Why does this always happen when I gt to work -.-
Yeah but I'm a dreamer
For me at least, I've always enjoyed the series and the universe while the non-episode releases have always represented something ground breaking to me. Personally though, the yearning isn't quite there any more. While I still love the games and go through them probably yearly just for kicks, I don't expect anything soon but hope eventually they do something significant and meaningful. Right now I'd like to see them do some sort of single player experience that is new, unique or inspired in some way.
This is how I spoiled myself one of Heavy Rain's endings, so I can't agree more. Personally I've been trying not to use spoiler tags for anything but actual spoilers lately.
I know that feel. I've been gifted some great and interesting games recently, but all I'm doing is play Guild Wars 2 instead (I forced myself to stop playing in the past so this wouldn't happen, which is why I'd played very little of it until now). Someone should delete my account or something, that shit is addictive.

I'm on the west coast so CSGO tries to put me on a server there. I think it's reasonable if you live anywhere in North America but depending how good you internet is YMMV.
I've been trying different times to see how many different people we can get. I'll probably do it later tomorrow.

OH man, you might give him a seizure!
It's been a long while since I've honestly been excited for anything coming out of Valve that wasn't related to Steam features.
In the case of HL3 I now desire that Gabe announces it is on indefinite hiatus or is canceled so people will stop making the same tired jokes every time a three is involved; or every time Valve game development is mentioned.

If you enjoy casual point-n-click adventure games, or "hidden object" games, that bundle is worth it for Nightmares From The Deep alone. It's probably the best "casual adventure / hidden object" mashup game going right now (and you don't need to play the previous NftD game to follow it)
So what you're saying is Half-Life 3 confirmed?
corrosivefrost
Member
I concur. And if there's that much clamor for HL3, where's the clamor for The Darkness III and Darksiders III? >_<
I honestly believe Valve enjoys the jokes.

Just a quick Shovel Knight question for peeps who have played it. When you're in Treasure Knight's stage do you have to
there or can you grab it later back at the village? I'm a teeny bit short on cash at the mo. Cheers in advance.
buy the Relic off Chester after defeating the mini boss

I believe you can always get it in the village after you beat the boss of that stage.
I just tried out Trail of Ibn Battuta and when you fire the Skorpion, it makes 7 gunshot noises but you only fire 4 bullets. This game oozes quality.
That was your primary complaint?
I wanted to reach through the game and strangle the animators and writers, myself.

um... I barely had enough money to get that so I don't know. I was wondering that as well though after the first time he showed up.

Hey now: are we trying to get rid of vermin or burn down the whole house?
The last time I played with steamgaf I got the winning kill (on a bot, killed an actual player just 20 seconds before, last man standing) while on 300 ping

Valve still exists and THQ (Vigil Games - Darksiders 3) doesn't. Also I don't think 2K wants to do anything with The Darkness.
I must know where that comes from
Not sure if serious.
hell, thats where it comes from
new GMG voucher 25% ALIENI-SOLATI-ON25PC probably doesnt work with credit as usual
edit: yup, doesnt work with credit confirmed
Should be available on the order view page, right? The link in the order confirmation email?
Well, I mean, I played it for about 90 seconds. Shot two guys, picked up the Skorpion, shot another guy, said "wait what" at the gun sounds, chuckled and quit.
Ask Rhanknar.
This, haha, after playing a bunch of competitive mode, it makes it pretty obvious how messy casual is.
It's pretty obvious Darksiders 3 is still going to happen.
