STEAM | March 2015 - Have you seen MRORANGE?

Status
Not open for further replies.
I've seen so many people say Hotline Miami is way harder than the first. I completely disagree. I'm blowing through 2 while I played the first the last couple of nights and have nothing but trouble. I can't get past the 10th level on the first one, and I think I'm on level 15 on the new one.
 
Sigh I'll forever patiently await your arrival on Steam oh sweet prince

Until then, gimme that Bempo pre-order now SEGA!

Also today's my birthday, and anyone who posts that grim reaper pic is blocked forever from getting a chance at earning Crom's Blessings =3
Happy birthday to you!
Happy Wednesday
Pretty nice of you. Much appreciated.
Not my kind of game. I watched some videos and it looked like a endless runner type of game. Only up.
More power to those who enjoy themselves.

There are more open space than the first game, getting shot from off-screen can be annoying sometimes. The game forces me to anticipate their locations through trial and error, I found myself shooting at their approximate locations off-screen a lot, but game is still fun.

I'm at scene 12 I believe and I wouldn't necessarily say it's tougher than the first in most respects, but I would say the level design is a step back. Bit too many off-screen gunblasts where shift-look can't possibly get you broad enough vision, leading to more trial and error than should be necessary. There wasn't nearly as much of that in the first game.

I lost my marker with the instructions to create a giveaway so no rules on this one (not that it deserved any xD). Anyway its a code I forgot I had.

Does any of you guys know of a tool that could help fix some problems I'm having? GeForce Experience picks up all the old versions / locations of stuff I've moved with Steammover. Does the TikiOne Cleaner help or am I down to manually removing the old folders? :p

Oh right... Well, darn. Guess I'll have to do it the ole fashion way whenever I get off my butt.

PS: CITIES: SKYLINES IS AWESOME.

I'm also incredibly bad at it. I bankrupted my first city in 10-15 min. My second one got ruined by decease, pollution and fires in about 30 minutes This may or may not have to do with the fact that I was experimenting with the various systems and put the water pump further down-stream than the drain-pipes. :3

My newest one has lasted an hour and is thriving, though! :'D

Except for a series of fires, but we don't talk about those...

Is there some kind of plugin that tells me if I can buy a gift for a friend in another country?

what sorcery is going on with JaseC and the JP Steam Store?

----
and so I got an offer for my Soundblaster Zx
I should just really go with it and get one of those cheap soundcards you guys mentioned right?

I am. :( I checked the steamdb entry for Cities Skylines and didn't see "AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting" for any its packages. One of the packages had "PurchaseRestrictedCountries" but it didn't have my country.
 
I can buy JP-specific subs for some reason. I have dual Steam citizenship!
Maybe Steam is returning to the metagame. Account perks for every thousand games owned.

1,000: preferred customer support
2,000: sale errors in your favour
4,000: Japan all-access

As of late last year, any newly-bought gifts have ACRTAG applied by default, and as of yesterday it also acts a runtime-level lock in addition to an activation-level one (games you buy for your own account are not region-locked, however, just gift copies).

How much does openCanvas 6 count in Japan? :D

There's no JP-specific sub, but to answer your question it's roughly USD$41. I chased down a cheaper copy of 5.5 last year as owners of that were given 6 for free.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

Welcome to the 2nd SteamGAF (late) GOTY Awards! Every year, gaffers choose games they thought were GOTY contenders on Steam, and the game with the highest point score is crowned SteamGAF's GOTY. Check out 2013's nail-biting results.

This is the great SteamGAF GOTY recount! The original results were scheduled to be revealed on January 17th, but have been delayed because MRORANGE was kidnapped is a very busy guy. I will try to keep with the spirit of MRORANGE's original GOTY call for votes, results, etc. In the event that MRORANGE shows back up and suddenly gives us the real results before the voting closes, then this recount will not be tallied. Voting will be open for 7 days, and results will be available shortly afterwards.

Rules and deadline:
- Up to 5 games can be chosen.
- 1st choice gets 5 points, 2nd choice gets 4 points and so on ... 5th game will get 1 point.
- You cannot vote for the same game more than once.
- You can write a short paragraph on why you the the 1st choice is a GOTY contender.
- Game must be on Steam and released in 2014.
- Episodic games that overlap multiple years can be counted as long as the first episode was released in 2014.
- Re-releases in 2014 are allowed in the Steam GOTY, for example FFXIII.
- APS used if it's a tie, like last time >_>
- Your vote will be discarded if you fail to follow the rules.

This thread is huge! Quick question: is my chinese store bought/gifted GTA V safe from the new regional restrictions? Simple yes/no should suffice, no need to derail the thread any more.
Thanks.

Wait frost voted. He's back?

I've managed to build up a serious backlog on my psvita and ps4, to add to my backlog on my PC. I only had them for maybe 2 months. Someone send help.
