STEAM | July 2014-3 – Let Off Some STEAM Bennett

Not open for further replies.
i'm partial to the Sleeping Beauty waltz

If i have it on Origin and you have it on steam, can we interact and play together?

*edit* sorry for double, figured someone might have posted already

I always check to make sure my internet is working when it's been like 10 minutes since anyone has posted
 
Uh. Hmm. Could this have happened due to Shadownet starting a raffle, then changing his mind on the rules and starting a different one, then posting the second one and not the first one, but Autorepost posting the earlier one that he didn't want anyway?

Because otherwise this seems pretty weird.

Unless his concussion totally knocked all his screws loose and he's giving away 2 copies as someone pointed out before.

I guess the only way to know is to ask him when he shows up again?

no, I'm not

Modest motherfucker, this one.

Once again, Fuzzi and I are in complete and total agreement.

And...

Wait, so there's HL1 (which I don't need to play, then HL2), then HL2:E1, and then HL2:E2?

Correct, HL2, then EP1, then EP2.

It's definitely important to play them in order. You can probably skip HL1, because there is a big enough timegap between HL1 and HL2, and the story of HL2 is intended to be understood without having played HL1. Although, you would obviously understand a bit more if you played HL1 as well.

But since HL2 EP 1 takes place immediately after the base game of HL2, and EP2 takes place immediately after EP1, it wouldn't make any sense to play them out of order.

Would you be interested in HL2 and HL2 EP1?

What does the Mortal Kombat update do? Looks pretty big (955MB).
I was wondering that myself. I didn't see any news post for it at the time. Haven't checked since.

I looked into the Batman giveaway thing and I'm not sure what the intent was, but I removed the entries from the ghost first repost. Thankfully it's a pre-order giveaway so the keys are dummy keys anyway--the winner needs to talk to the giver. So it's not like two people would have accidentally got a key. The reason why the dupe checker wouldn't have resolved this is because both had similar but different dummy keys.

So the first giveaway was deleted?

Oh... soo.... modbot hasn't gone rogue...
Shadownet's just gone insane.

Oh well, sometimes you've gotta go insane to outsane the sane.
Y'know what I'm "sane"-in'?


So I'm either insane or Modbot is giving 2 copies of Arkham Knight in my name? Whats going on here?? I just got home and now apparently I'm the town crazy.

Also R.I.P to my homie yGray.

The Megagiver giveaway was deleted, since Shadownet never posted that one.

Stump took care of it. It was just a weird modbot bug. Probably from when you first tried to do the giveaway and it didn't like the combination of rules you had, and it still somehow sent out the reminder for it.

Real question: I think I entered the first. Is there a link to the second one?

I thought you were actually giving away 2 copies :p

I thought I was too. I was like "Is this concussion messing with my memories?"

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY GOD I know why Modbot posted 2 copies now.

Ah man, so glad the Tank Rush server is back again. The only way to L4D2 anymore.
Should do a GAF night. 8 man server for nothin but tanks and tanks with special properties.
For several days me and three others gaffers have been playing very entertaining custom campaigns. If we could manage to play with 8 gaffers at once, that'd be even better.
But don't we have to have access to the server directly to adjust player count?

Thanks, and I certainly am interested. Do they go on sale often?

Anyone ran into the family sharing bug of trying to auth someone and they get the error of "Failed to authorize computer (Account not found)" ? My brother lost his authorization somehow to my games and he keeps getting that error. He can be on my accounts list that access my games but he can't get his machine to be on my list. If he tries to run my games, it'll prompt to send an access request, but he'll get the same "Account not found" response. Tried everything from removing a lot of steam files to de-authing everyone (which screwed up another auth in the process), not sure what else I can do. Everyone has Steam Guard enabled so not sure if I'm just cursed or what.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
LIVE NOW: Serious Stream: http://twitch.tv/morningbus (join via Steam)
Archive: Serious Stream: Serious Sam 1 (Part 2) (youtube)

uJLGX2U.jpg


What’s going on here?
SteamGaf sent Morningbus over 6 months worth of M&M cable credit codes. He agreed to stream Serious Sam 1 to 3, a series of games he has often compared unfavorably against a swift kick to the key areas.

But people like Serious Sam? Hell, I like Serious Sam!
Come, sip deep of his essence and let him pull back the veil behind the greatest fraud perpetrated in the history of the world.

Wait…
Just watch the stream.

No, hold up a sec. Why are people giving Morningbus their M&M debit cards I heard so much about?
That M&M promotion initially started off offering both $6 debit cards and $6 cable credits. However, the internet being what it is depleted those cards within just a few weeks of the promotion and now they are only giving away the cable credits. Some people have no need for this type of code and some people are just having fun seeing exactly how far Morningbus can take it.

Can I join in?
Certainly! Just join the Unofficial NeoGAF Mumble server (details here) and join the Serious Stream room. You can also chat through the Twitch.TV link from above.

90 from Toki767
66 from Morningbus

Was it this? It was this, wasn't it.

I must know!

Yeah i'm 99% sure it was. I register Batman in the 1st raffle but it seem like Megagiver and Payitforward cancelled one another out or something. So I made a 2nd raffle. I guess I forgot about the 1st one.
