Support NeoGAF

[Chariot]

It was HORRIBLE you guys , instead of Browsing GAF i had to be PRODUCTIVE today .

And I was bored while sitting in my father's company storage waiting for something to do. If I ever been cast away I'll die of GAF loss first.

 

[Jazz573]

I will say the 12 hours GAF was mostly down for made me remember how connected I feel to the place. That's a cheesy-ass thing to say, but it's how I felt, so I guess I'm going cheesy.

Great. Now I'm craving nachos.

i still find it funny how this game in not on 3DS or WiiU
when the developers is GF

 

[Jazz573]

Also, all of reddit has reopened.

A lot of the subreddits I'm subscribed to weren't open, so between that and GAF being down, there wasn't much I could do.

GET HYPE FOR ZERO ESCAPE 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And, most importantly - Aksys will be streaming their AX presentation:

Coming to steam?

 

[ExoSoul]

So... why were we down?

 

[Jazz573]

Apparently everyone was kicked out of the LACC until 12:40.

 

[Dusk Golem]

So... why were we down?

NeoGAF was getting DDoS'd pretty bad, according to EvilLore.

Here's the asshole who DDOSed GAF:

 

[Shantom]

Raiden III is $2 at Indiegala. Worth it?

 

[Annubis]

So while GAF was down, I finalized the Steam Trading Card stuff for Close Your Eyes, and they're all now in 100%. Got to try each of them on my profile and sporting one of them now on my profile.

But for some reason, at least right now, Close Your Eyes' backgrounds and emotes are worth 100 gems if you turn them into gems. I'm not sure if that's a placeholder or if for some reason Valve decided to make them worth 100 gems. I'm not complaining, but if that actually is the final number I'm wondering why since so few games have stuff worth 100 gems.

As a developer, do you get badges/background/cards of the game you made?

 

[Deitus]

Coming to steam?

I don't think it's been announced yet. Everyone is assuming that's what Akysys' big announcement is.

 

[Chariot]

Coming to steam?

Sure.

Who could hate us that much? Neofag? Anita? Footy GAF? Phil Spencer!?

Here's the asshole who DDOSed GAF:

Wow, so edgy.

 

[Hektor]

Here's the asshole who DDOSed GAF:

What a pethetic beeing. Just ignore him and move along, dont give him the attention he wants.

 

[Tizoc]

Coming to steam?

VIA KICKSTARTER!

ZE3 announcement would be an acceptable reason for GAF going down.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

Gross.

Any reason why?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was #GamesforwindowsliveGhostbusters

 

[derExperte]

Sure.

I like how they hid all the OG Muv-Luv stuff behind the Muv-Luv Alternative stuff.

I couldn't access his Twitter page. I just copied a screen from a thread on Off-Topic. Maybe he was banned?

Edit:

Hype!

 

[the_firewithin]

Broforce is the broist bro game ever

 

[YianGaruga]

I'm pretty sure the DDOS attack was caused by a malfunction of lashmans bot

 

[Thorgal]

Oh god please , not again on the same day .

8 hours without GAF is worse then playing Bad rats for a month exclusively .

 

[Dusk Golem]

As a developer, do you get badges/background/cards of the game you made?

A lot of Steam inner-workings I can't talk about because of signing confidential forms that you need to sign to be able to access the developer site of Steam, but there are aspects you can talk about if it's not related to the inner-workings of Steam or about things more known to the public.

On account that I clearly have a Level 5 Close Your Eyes badge now on my profile and am sporting a Close Your Eyes background on my profile, I do think I'm allowed to say yes, but I don't think I'm allowed to go any more specific than that. XD;

This is tricky sometimes.

 

[Deitus]

Here's the asshole who DDOSed GAF:

I'm not sure if I'm more disgusted by his/her behavior, or that they used the phrase "I could care less".

Spoiler

Obviously the former.

 

[Arthea]

Things I've learnt while gaf was down for whole day:

nobody knows what's going on
my work does suffer from me hanging with steamgaf
activity feed isn't full of gaf is down talk (what's wrong with you people?)
world didn't end, but it was close call
I'm not sure I want HL3 announced
you guys are still the best, even if barely

I wish I could unlearn some of those things

 

[Jazz573]

Nah, it was this idiot:

 

[Hektor]

I couldn't access his Twitter page. I just copied a screen from a thread on Off-Topic. Maybe he was banned?

His twitter is already deleted.
But of course dozens of users had to give him the attetion he craved:

oh well.

And now we're doing exactly the same. Let's stop.

Nah, it was this idiot:

lashbot really changed abtruptly. Where did we go wrong?

what is SJW ?

 

[Jazz573]

what is SJW ?

Social justice warrior.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

what is SJW ?

"Social justice warrior," a term that once referred to extreme social liberals but is now applied to basically anyone with remotely left-wing views, usually by hard-right conservatives.

 

[Arthea]

could you kindly all stop quoting that stupid thing?

and to think I just said you are the best, I take my words back

 

[Eanan]

what is SJW ?

Social justice warrior.

Anyone know how long the nuuvem sale is on for?

Want to get remember me but abroad and can't get to any vpns etc

 

[Hektor]

Yeah you're right.

what is SJW ?

I recommend you urban dictionary.
Its pretty useful to keep up with all the trendy internet slang.

Social justice warrior.

Some deals on the frontpage will stay for at least 13 days.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Oh hurrah, GAF is back up!

Finished Ronin last night, fun game, good challenge and a great mix of MotN & Gunpoint

Edit: oh shit we got DDOS'd?

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

I'm almost done with The Marvellous Miss Take. This game really suffers from a control scheme that frequently does stuff I don't want it to do.

It's a shame, because mechanically and level design-wise, it's great.

 

[Tizoc]

Raiden III is $2 at Indiegala. Worth it?

Definitely.
It's a simple port but runs really well.

I must be an SJW extremist then.

Agent 47 contacted me today. Can't say anything more...
But know that I did my part for PC gaming

That would put you in rare company, the only non-Valve game I know with 100 gem items is Defiance (though I'm sure there's a few others). Will definitely maintain the value of the items to a greater degree and might result in a bit more money for you in the long term

 

[Jazz573]

GAF's gonna go down. It's all Aksys's fault.
