Got the chance to get a preview key of Risen 3 and write about it. Don't know what to think about the game. Should I do it or let someone else do the preview? Quite busy with Divinity: Original Sin now so that's why I hesitate.

It sounds like you haven't played Risen 1 and 2 and, in that case, you should probably let a fellow staffer who actually has do it, as your preview will likely be inferior and less informative than theirs. Key greed doesn't lead to good journalism bro!

Playing it would help you know what to think about it.

No "Modbot senpai notice me!" or any other variation in the most used PM's subject disappoint me.

I use that, but not enough. Other lines with cursing as well. So, probably a good thing modbot doesn't show that.

 

[spindoctor]

The other cases appear to mostly be people claiming low-demand game to get them off their outstanding games list in my loot.

I didn't realize this was possible. I have one game 'stuck' in my loot list because it wasn't a real key and it's been bugging me that it will stay there forever. Not anymore though.

 

[JaseC]

Ah, ok. I did notice one called "Wolfenstein: The New Order With Doom Beta ROW", which is obviously not the one I have. Hopefully that doesn't mean I'll miss out.

Because the X1 doesn't support digital pre-orders, Bethesda instead determined beta eligibility by imposing a post-release purchase cut-off date, and Steam received the same treatment as a sort of "last chance" offer.

I have to resist the temptation to PM people just as a huge giveaway ends.

 

[sheaaaa]

After reading this fantastic Jeremy Parish article about Bungie's Marathon 2 Durandal (and also this on Marathon), I want to play them for what would be my first time. They're free apparently, but I can't help but wish they were on Steam. I think it's a disease.

That is messed up and brilliant

 

[Dr Dogg]

I think mostly of time I use Hi/Hello Modbot when pming it.

I'm sure that out in the wilds of the interwebs, someone has penned some ModBot fanfiction. I begs the question though. Do ModBots dream of electric alpacas?

 

[Strazyplus]

Could someone invite me to the NeoGAF Steam Community Group?

Nooooo I thought a VPN activation would be enough - I didnt know Bethesda would turn on asshole mode and require a VPN on each launch of Wolfenstein
*cries* And then I win Wolfenstein.

Thanks Fuzzi, but I dun goofed so I'll deny the gift and you give it away again please.

A quick question.

Friend of mine bought the russian version of MW3. Is it only playable in Russia or can it just be unlocked with a RU VPN?

 

[PandaPedinte]

You know, it's a good idea for a competition to win a game writing a Modbot non-pornographic fanfic.

 

[Beelzebubs]

This is the internet, you can't have a non pornographic fan fic! Oh and added all those that asked to Steam group.

Acti didn't begin locking down CoD until Black Ops 2, although if he bought an RU retail key he'll need to use a VPN to activate it.

 

[MayMay]

This is interesting, looking at SteamDB - the Quakecon Bundle version of Wolfenstein isnt region locked? Why'd they do that - oversight maybe?

 

[Articalys]

That's why I did it as a non-free-for-all; to see what the breakdown would be.
Here's the free-for-all version:

...well, fuck me and my time zone for not being awake for this. Tried for Astebreed in the earlier one-entry raffle and failed that too...

Wait until August-September. That's when 2K usually put up their titles for preorder

Yeah, and it's too late to "fix" something like that.

Will tell him that.

Aye. You'd probably need to play a bunch of those games anyway so you could uninstall them to make space for Wolfenstein and Divinity.

No idea how to use modbot so will just post them. Will figure it out someday... Codes for Nosgoth...

Just holla if you grab one so people,know they gone. Enjoy!

hey dude, are these all gone? just tried to activate and none of them worked, but I can only see 1 person who has taken one :-\

 

[JaseC]

where do you find the info on steamdb that the quakecon wolfenstein isnt region locked ?
please explain in great detail

You look up the sub and see if it has any of the following:

The various region-locking options are thus:

Language-based: Used with region-specific subs, publishers can elect to supply only specific non-English languages. -- e.g. Watch Dogs RU supports only Russian.
Special notes: None.

Runtime-based: Used with region-specific subs, onlyallowrunincountries or its sister prohibitrunincountries allow publishers to allow/deny access to specific users based on their IP address. This is by far the most annoying method and up until ACRTAG was also the most popular. -- e.g. Age of Mythology RU (allows only Eastern European IPs)/Wolfenstein: The New Order ROW (prohibits German IPs).
Special notes: Affects everybody who has the sub, both those with unused gift copies sourced from the restricted regions (game is region-locked at the activation level) and those with activated copies (game detects launch eligibility based on IP address).

Gifting/trading-based (1): Used with any sub, AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting being disabled results in gift copies sourced from South American, South-east Asian or Eastern European users being region-locked at the activation level. Unlike the above OARIC/PRIC, however, if you'd activated your copy before the flag were implemented, then it will remain region-free. -- e.g. Valiant Hearts RU.
Special notes: Does by itself not affect activated copies -- they remain region-free.

Gifting/trading-based (2): Used with any sub, publishers can elect to disable the gift purchase function entirely. Unfortunately, this isn't something SteamDB can detect; fortunately, though, it's something that is easily circumvented. -- e.g. DE:HR Director's Cut.
Special notes: None.

I assume there'll be another Wolfenstein giveaway soon - so you can try your luck again because I sadly had to decline the copy I won.

Lool, where is that from?
