This post reminded me that my Steam Birthday is somewhere in the middle of May. Color me surprised when I logged in a few minutes ago and was greeted by a much more colorful storefront. Pretty cool stuff, jschakles.

It just another online only game that is dead online (48 current players) why would anyone in there right mind every buy it willingly?
Click to expand...

It just went up today with little fan fare involved. I thought there was a open beta coming up or something.

Also, developed by Human Head Studios, but I believe they picked it up from another developer's bankruptcy.

Is Foundation 9 behind the classic Sega releases on Steam? I know they've been involved with the console legacy stuff, but is that the same for PC?

Yeah. MP-Game, Indie, Early-Acess...

As long as its not Rust or DayZ, I am sure it will be dead in justa few months, which is kinda sad, because often those Games arent even bad, just dont have a community...

If you're a multiplayer game without zombies, you need to go free to play. It's impossible to survive otherwise. Stop fooling yourself.

Joke aside It doesn't necessarily have to be F2P, it just needs be good and offer lots of value. Having said that there are plenty of games that have failed.

Value and quality probably don't factor in whatsoever. You said it yourself, it has a low player count, full stop. Why would people play it. There are a ton of shitty f2p games that at least have the benefit of there being an audience at all to complain about it.

Incidentally, May 14th is also the birth date of Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV.

It is said that, as a child, Charles was given the gift of a dog on his birthday, a dog that proceeded to poop in every hidden nook of the expansive royal palace grounds. As a lesson in responsibility and dedication, Charles was sternly directed by his father, King John of Bohemia, to diligently tidy-up after his wayward and adventurous pet. This deed was documented for ninety hours by Charles' loyal squire, and this account of Charles' poop-scooping collect-a-thon, and the little dog he had named 'Ubi' (later tragically lost when the palace gates failed to close successfully), is said to have been the inspiration behind the naming of the company Jase so knows and loves today.
Well, maybe.

25 isn't quite 26, but I'll consider it a birthday blessing all the same, haha. I've bought about 30 games today (25 on Steam itself and a few keys from SF's own site).

Quite easy... if you're willing to part with a relatively large sum of money.

I couldn't buy those Strategy First games after all, not like I gonna play them ever, and besides, it just seemed wrong. I still ended buying 3 that playfire offers rewards for. Some of us are so easily manipulated, first cards, now playfire rewards too (><)

Landmark and EQNext are two games. Landmark was previously called EQNext Landmark, they're just rebranding to show they're seperate entities.

I haven't played Strike Suit Zero for a long time, may be I forgot how things are. I played the first mission of Director's cut last night (it's tutorial more or less), I haven't gotten any medal for it. That can't be right (><)
I'm not even playing on hard, but on normal!

About DW8, I see some reviews from people having no issues with the game. Granted they mostly played for 4-5 hours, but still.
How sure are we about this crash thingie being real?

I kind of want to buy Bad Rats in the SF sale since it feels like my library is incomplete without it, but then again, it feels unavoidable that I end up winning it in some troll giveaway sooner or later. Decisions, decisions!

I also want to buy that Shannon Tweed game because lol.

2. ???
3. Have fun with 3-5 gifts of Bad Rats

Still wondering why HK-$, TW and chinese RMB still arent added, since Steam there is already translated and they have quite a few servers in these areas.

aww, care to share what OS you are using and your specs?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that this game has no issues, as I don't know and I wanna know.

Windows 8.1, Intel i5 3570k overclocked to 4.2ghz, 8gb ram, Nvidia 660TI.

When it loads it runs fine ignoring the fact it doesn't support 1440p, just a good number of campaign missions don't seem to load. I tried Wu, Wei, and Lu Bus campaign, Lu's was fine, other two I managed to do the first stage and after that wouldn't load at all no matter what I tried.
