For me it shows Neverwinter Nights as a bonus item for preordering (which I own 3 times already) and lots of other digital extras that I'm not too interested in. And works out at about £7 more expensive than I just paid for it on Steam, so yeah go figure.

I thought NWN is a standard bonus item?

On the subject of F.E.A.R. 1, there is a fix for framerate drops with people using Logitech devices (on the PCGWiki). It says to disable some devices while it is running (apparently some USB polling problem with the engine). The only annoying thing is there is a script but I can't seem to get it running with the game executable; Steam just refuses to start the SP game from it whereas it seems start the MP executable no problem.

This is kinda annoying because I can't run the game at 60 fps and it'll start going down to 45, 30, further in less than maybe 15-20 minutes.

Good to know about that issue, I use a Logitech mouse and keyboard. Thanks for the heads up!
About the script issue I'm afraid I can't help at the moment, haven't tried FEAR yet. But when I get round to it I'll report back.


PS: Thanks hohoXD123 for the Surgeon Simulator! 3 games from ModBot in one day, I'm speechless. Enough of ModBot for me today^^

The game is still ~8 months away from going gold so at this juncture I doubt even CDPR knows what they'll be.

Urrrggghhhh playing "hunt the missing collectable" in Soul Suspect is just as tedious as you think it would be. Great news that there's a close to useless digital map you get for preordering that you have to create an account,to view it via the web. Yeah sod that for a game of soldiers when I have paper and pen handy.

Ah ok. Not too sure as I've only looked at GOG showing a UK IP address and that's the only game showing up despite what it says in the preorder page. I think it's pretty safe to say that the EU preorder price on Steam is a mistake judging by how both the Steam and GOG preorder pages are worded. Well unless "The best preorder offer" refers to lots of added extras for more money :/.

As far as I'm aware CDPR hasn't commented on that, but I'd be surprised if it weren't on the cards. CDPR doesn't seem to have a general enquiries address, but you could make a thread or send a tweet.

I'll see if I get an answer directly from them. But for $36 I think I'll just end up getting the GoG version after all.

On second thought, after watching the how to play video, I don't think I really want to play this. It looks too far off from actual chess, which was why I was interested. :\ I jumped the gun and got a key for it though, so anyone else want it?

Thank you all, amazing people. I was just curious after the Dead Rising 3 specs.

35.99? How?
I doubt they would let us redeem steam copy on GoG anytime soon though, more GoG sales = more money to them.
Click to expand...

and think how many bonus sales they'd get by offering optional steam keys with their gog sales. it feels kind of lame that we have to choose between DRM free and steam right now, and i would have gladly pre-ordered already if that was not the case.

Some days ago Witcher 3 Steam page showed some System requirements, if I recall correctly the minimum RAM was 6GB and the recommended 8GB, either way as far as I'm concerned my laptop won't even install it :D

Those steam keys floating around would probably hurt the steam sales, no sane developer would do that.

You know, I humor myself that I'm surprised people still don't have some, nay, most of those games.

all those devs who sell their game with humble widgets or the humble store do it. you could argue this would be the first big budget/full price game to do it, but that will just end up the old "is a shared copy/piracy a lost sale?" debate. an irritating argument to have to make against CDPR especially considering their pro-consumer holier than thou preachiness lately

Yo is it possible to get a Steam code for a game you own on Desura? Was wondering if I can get a Woodle Tree steam code >_>;

Quick question.

Does GMG retroactively give Steam keys for games you purchase from them? I'm eyeing a few games that are currently not on Steam, but have been confirmed to be arriving on Steam at some point thanks to Greenlight.

I bought Witcher 2 with no discount at $60 when it came out, but $48 still seems eh.

That being said, I very much doubt my new 750ti will be able to play that on at least medium or high unless they have crazy levels of optimization.
