I just installed and played Counter Strike Source for the first time in over 5 or so years. Was curious to see what it's like now since CS:GO is quite popular. I never put a considerable amount of time into it back then, but always wanted to see what the game was like. This was when I was really into CoD but was starting to look for a different type of online fps. Never did get good at it, but it was still somewhat fun for me. Played through a few servers and most are Zombies and No Limit Respawns where I got 13 achievements in a matter of minutes. Just mindless shooting which wasn't so bad for a few minutes. I did play CS:GO on console awhile back but that was short lived.

Also, this and BF2 are the only PC discs I still own.

I wonder if I should play RE6 with a mouse and keyboard instead of laying in my bed like a lazy ass

maybe that'll help my issues with the gunplay, dunno

too lazy, and too QTE ridden/Melee focused anyway

Tried to play some SSF4AE. Matchmaking/online seems broken, as some people on the internet have mentioned. Unless all 2500+ people who are playing it right now are practicing or severely limited their lobby regions and skill levels. I found one guy from Sweden, and couldn't connect to even him. Going to wait if any patching will happen, maybe next week will be better.


It also seems like my fightpad feels worse than it did before. Having some serious issues making angled jumps, for some reason. I wonder if there's a way to mod the d-pad somehow.

Have the Playfire rewards been lackluster for anyone else? Seems I just don't own anything that they put on the rewards program anymore.

im more annoyed by the fact that a lot of my rewards dont register every singe time and I just got tired of sending a ticket, altho everytime I did they fixed it, but it's too bothersome

I think it's cool, but it's really not in a state of "oh idk what to play so i'll wait till playfire rewards" or let them dictate what I play at all, like a lot of people here are

I find it easier to move in Resie 6 with the controller because it's easier to quickly throw yourself in whatever direction you want and I think the commands for rolling and such feel more natural. You lose the mouse control though which is a big loss.

It takes forever to get a response from Playfire support. I was thinking about sending a ticket for a .50 reward that still hasn't registered but there's little point when it'll take weeks to hear a response from them.

Seeing all this RE6 talk makes me want to play it again...but i'm waiting for possible playfire rewards for it before getting into it again (all i got is the tutorial achievement).

speaking of playfire rewards, is it working for anyone else? The last thing i got for it is Rush Bros.

beta is beta i guess

None of the Tropico awards have unlocked for me this week.

Also all this talk of Resident Evil 6 makes me want to play through the campaigns again. I really enjoyed them all for various reasons and the final bosses in every campaign were so hilariously over the top.

The only campaign I disliked was Ada's since the lack of ai partner in some sections led to frustrating moments, since the whole revival thing is based around partners.

I thought the Javo and all their mutations were amazing too. I loved all the location damage and mutations they could go through.

Hey, if anyone else is in the Rise of the Incarnates Alpha/Beta, please come online!

It's a two on two game and there are only two of us in here. I can't even start a single game because it needs a full player count to start.

I haven't even really gotten more than 5 seconds in the tutorial to run my character around.

The Playfire thread was started to get all the playfire discussion in, you know, one place, though. (and slow down the speed of the Steam thread, somewhat)

I don't know, in terms of scale Star Citizen and Divinity: Original Sin among others seem a wondrous return to form to the kind of complexity and detail so often unique to pc games.

In terms of pure graphical detail games like the Order are more impressive than any pc game I've seen so I'm not worried about PC devs being able to do things with the extra power over time. Very early on after all.

So we shouldn't discuss Greenman Gaming, Uplay, etc? I mean, they have their own threads but people discuss here instead. It's all Steam related and people discuss it here too. No problem in that.

Then god forbid we discuss anything Playfire in here, which is Steam related, but it's okay for people to derail the thread which clearly has nothing to do with Steam. Like I did yesterday :p

Seems you've been slacking on your duty to build that Steam library, man.

yes extremely. The rewards are quite obscure as of late. I think I got about $3 in May vs. $15+ in April.

April: $39.35
May: $23.90* (once CSRs fix my missing $3.05)

So less, but not totally obscure. :p

Becky's not even hot though


Anyhow, that's a good price for the Book of Legends. It's an okay RPG Maker game if you don't mind having no idea where to go and constantly getting lost. You get to have a friendly bear and roster in your party too, so that's kind of cool I guess.

Well no, I guess the point is that in the last couple of months like 1/4 of the threads consisted in people talking about news/bugs/brags/complaints about Playfire Rewards.

I'm the first who loves some good derailings, but a little bit of variety is always appreciated!

Hehehe. Chasing the high framerate, high resolution dream on a budget is a fools errand and even more so on fixed hardware for half a decade or more. Since the dawn of the 3D accelerated graphics card there has only place to turn to and that isn't a console.

I'd just wish we could all get along and sing the praises of the games we play, regardless of platform we play on but numbers seem to get in the way and arguments then ensue. Every Digital Foundry thread turns into a slanging match with some people throwing around numbers and techniques they don't really understand.

Still at least everyone who posts in here, regulars and newcomers alike, and the general mood is that of a happy bunch :)

And done with Agent Hunt for now. Had a few fun rounds.

As for those who don't know about this mode, here was a few screenshots from my session with some personal captions.
