Well, Escape Dead Island has been played. For $4 it actually wasn't too bad. There's definitely some not so good in there, but I don't regret playing it. Except for the story, that wound up being nonsense.

And with that, I have played the entire Dead Island catalog this year.

How is the gameplay mechanic? Is it less janky than the first two Dead Island games? I can tolerate a game with shitty story and characters if it has solid gameplay.

Destiny is a prime example.

this game is alright

They even have Vietnam! That's like the only game I know that has Vietnam as an option for anything. Though I do wish it wasn't the communist flag but the South Vietnam flag.

 

[iosefe]

Kinda wanna share something about my life. Not important at all. Just like to get it off my chest.

and don't foget the occaisional 3.5-4 hour drive south to Miami to the Beaches of South Beach, etc


but yeah, Orlando is nice. if i ever actually get a job at disney, i'd have to move up, and yeah, leaving friends is a scary thought. when i told people i was gonna audition, if not the first or second, the third thing they mention is me having to move up if i made it.



speaking of Disney, did the games go on sale this summer?

 

[KingKong]

The vehicle sections stand out as being extremely janky with terrible controls. Hated every one of them.

thats the main thing I was thinking of, especially the Chris jeep one

Yeah it does drag on far too long. I would have much rather had a 6-8 hour tightly made singular campaign that takes all the best parts from each campaign in the original game.

I agree, there are parts that I think are great (like the Chris apartment levels, Leon church) but then you're taking out 3 AA turrets like are you kidding me

The only requirement (should) be that you have to visit any store page once while logged in. Then you should see the links when you browse any wishlist pages.

weird...I've done that and still don't see the button there

Star Wars did...

 

[jshackles]

Do you have more than 200 items in your wishlist? Due to API changes made by Valve, those add to cart buttons (and platform icons) won't load on wishlist pages that have more than 200 things on them.

 

[Khronico]

Welp, I bought WOTS4 as a birthday present to myself.

Gotta support them weird niche Japanese console game ports.

It helps that WOTS is an amazing series as well.

Doesn't seem like I can preload it -_-

I have 13...had 12 and figured maybe adding an item would make it show up but it didn't

My aunt told me Miami beach are filthy, which probably is true. Almost everytime they show it on TV or movies. There's always ton of people there. I went to Daytona Beach, it was really nice and clean.

Well if we both move here, I always wanted a monkey for a friend

I have multiple musous but haven't played any. Odds are I experience Megamelons before Zelda and friends.

Still waiting for my Dynasty Warriors Gundam Reborn port.

When does GMG encore sale ends? All I got was ESO, not sure what else is worth getting.

Spoiler

I don't have the game anyways lol

 

[Uraizen]

Kentucky at the moment.

FL and wired.

I'm still in NY, you still in FL?

Do you have a fight stick that already worked on PS4 or did you grab one when you grabbed Xrd (you have to have Xrd, you love fighters way too much)? I lost interest in getting into the PS4 beta after I realized my TE won't work and I don't really have any fighters on the system at this point, so it's not really a wise investment for me to grab one at this time.

And what happened was someone took the XBL game and hacked it to work on PC, making some statement about how it wasn't piracy because the game wasn't available on the platform.

I am indeed still in FL.

I have the Xrd stick and HRAP V4 for the PS4. Would have bought them anyway since everybody's implementation of Lab Zero's drivers have been poor so far and just add more delay.

I hope that still exists.

I think it has maybe 11 hours left...just guessing going by their Twitter when they sent the "24 Hours Left" tweet

 

[The Dear Leader]

Still trying to get used Troy Baker's Joker as Mark Hamill is so ingrained in the role. Roger Craig Smith as Batman I actually liked off the bat. Currently up to the hotel area and looking forward to taking on Bane(?). Also,

Spoiler

the Electrocutioner went out like a punk

The riddler packs scattered all of the map are ridiculous. Gotta catch 'em all.

I think both Troy Baker and Roger Craig Smith are two of the best things about Arkham Origins, they couldn't have cast a better set of replacements for such iconic voices.

 

[Leafhopper]

FL and wired.

Would probably play fine then. I played my friend in New York fine.

 

[TheSeks]

charged money on my card..

And you still own Killing Floor 2, yes?

You did the right thing. Getting both.

 

[Khronico]

Wolf Old Blood if you liked Wolf New Order.

Chivalry is amazing multiplayer swordfighting.

Red Faction Guerilla

RE6 has the best third person shooting mechanics outside Vanquish.

 

[iosefe]

Red Faction Guerilla

fuck yeah

 

[Dsyndrome]

Doctor Who Adventure Game - Yay or Nay? I know nothing about the series other than multiple Doctors, and I'm mopping up GMG encore sales. Love P&C's. My little brother watches it but I've only seen Christmas specials when I'm home for the holidays.

Did you like Origins as much as the others? I'm enjoying it a bit more than City as the fights seem to provide more of a challenge(hints off), and I love the Gotham setting.

Just picked up that Chivalry pack. Need to give it a decent try before I join the group.

Enhanced Steam has been updated to version 7.6. This release includes the following changes:
This update is available for Google Chrome and should update itself automatically within the next 60 minutes.

Oh well, good thing Opera allows for using Chrome extensions.

 

[texhnolyze]

Speaking of multiplayer swordfighting..
What do you guys think of Ubisoft's For Glory? Why do I get the feeling that people aren't looking forward to the game at all? Pretty low coverage & discussions here on GAF so far.
It looks amazing & fun for me.

It's one of the best Doctor Who games, which is saying a lot because it's actually a pretty terrible game.

If you're not too familiar with the show then it's easily skippable.

Weird. If you press F12 do you see any errors in the log?

No I still think Arkham Asylum is the best, it would be up there tied with City if it wasn't for the bugs and lack of polish. But as far as the story and overall gameplay goes its still great.

It's called For Honor actually, and I'm really looking forward to it, like Chivalry but with a focus on 1v1 combat and making every hit count. The gameplay they showed looked promising too.

do I press "Console" to see the log?...if so then I don't see any errors

Welp then I'm out of bullets and legitimately stumped. I'll do a bit more testing tomorrow and let you know if I come up with anything.

In for Wolfenstein. Nice giveaway.

 

[Sajjaja]

I just activated Killing Floor 2 and immediatly realized I could have traded it for Rocket League (would be a better deal moneywise for whoever trades it with me) which i've been dying to play

oh my god

That's a good idea.

Anyone wanna trade Rocket League for this KF2 key I also won from the stream? I would prefer a copy of ARMA 3 (which has been on sale for $30) so that would be nice too.

EDIT: I'll actually prefer Rocket League.

Ozium was right the whole time!!!!

 

[zkylon]

it's pretty crazy to think mercenary kings only had 120k on kickstarter

like, the game might not be perfect and all but it's incredibly full of upgrades and details and stuff, it's super impressive

i do wish it was just a tiny bit more responsive. it has like a small delay to everything that makes it a lot less enjoyable to play

 

[Chance Hale]

Looking forward to finally playing a Way of the Samurai game, still don't remember why I never ended up picking up 3 or 4 on the PS3 when they came out as I remember wanting both. Such is life!

Hope the branching is as open as the third game seemed.

 

[The Dear Leader]

COLLUSION!!!

 

[zkylon]

way of the samurai 1 is brilliant, i love how they managed time skips and i wish they had kept that in the sequels (i think they ditched that,right?)

just really well segmented and easy to set up in 'scenes' and lent itself to a lot of replayability since it was pretty easy to see where the game branched out

 

[The Dear Leader]

These Killing Floor 2 200fps reload animations are something else, I'm a sucker for some good ol' fashioned gun porn and this game delivers on all accounts. Really glad I picked this game up, it's filling the void that Payday 2 has left.

 

[Salsa]

check out my exclusive "you played the alpha" hat 😎

already pullin hat tricks. honestly most people ive encountered in unraked are real bad

been playing ranked 2v2 matches and that's the best to play so far

game is super fun

 

[corrosivefrost]

Look at that. Bloodborne on Steam? In a way, yes it is.

Guess we can talk about it in here now. Praise Jshackles.

 

[Nabs]

Rocket League is so well made. I love how you can set matchmaking on and continue to do other things like practice or whatever. It also has a ton of good settings, like FOV and other camera settings. Oh, and it has Borderless Windowed Mode. The port gets a super thumbs up from me.

It's also a lot of fun.

 

[Salsa]

I just left the FOV at 90 and it seems fine, but you reminded me of that. might be worth playing around with

the camera toggle is real smart tho so I never really feel lost or that im not seeing enough of the game

Just sold a foil card for a high price, but I'm confused. Why anyone would want Resident Evil 4's Osmund Saddler as a "waifu" (the only things that sell for over $1 USD I'm told).

Joking aside, and to ensure that this isn't seen as me trying to brag or anything, I'm still baffled by any value attached to foil cards. No extra XP, same art, just rarity and I think that's a shame. There really should be something attached to completing a foil badge, but I can't think of what that would be and yet still be fair for the market around it.

 

[BHK3]

This is a good year for me for FPS's, KF2 and every video I see on Vermintide looks great: https://youtu.be/C1jKvDF1BB0

You would think foil cards give I don't know 2 or 3x as much as a normal badge crafting.

SteamGAF, I need some advice please.

So I've already pre-ordered Zestiria for $42 from my own store. However, I've just recently learned that the game is actually way cheaper, $27, from another country's store within my store region. My regular online store is offering that cheaper pre-order (which will be distributed via gift) at the moment. Should I get a refund and get the cheaper one? I know it's kinda obvious, but I dunno what to buy with my refund money if I were to refund it.

Sounds like a shady cd-key reseller store, or am I missing something?
