Man, after playing a match in Evolve, I really regret being late on that Indonesian price mistake

I want evolve so much I really love playing as the monster and I got lucky last night, as I joined a a party though matchmaking... therefore for 5 matches in a row I was the monster, after the 5th match it was 1pm I had to get sleep ha ha.

I would give you my copy if I could.

Welp, I've been discounted buying games at a leisurely pace, but when I was about to buy The Novelist, this popped up:



Actually, it said my credit card was declined by my company at first, but it was like this with every payment method for the past ten minutes both in client and the browser. Stupid bugs.

That's intentional. It helps to mitigate fraudulent purchases, but I'd also say that, to a lesser extent, it's in place so some users don't inadvertently trigger a hold on their card due to multiple smaller purchases in what certain banks may consider quick succession.

Not enjoying it?

 

[Sendou]

Going to give Dragon Age: Origins a go. Should I install a mod that skips The Fade? Is it really as bad as people claim? Any other essential mods?

 

[salazar547]

i tried to play evolve but i cant get a decent framerate with my pc , oh well i have a couple of months to buy new parts i guess

It made a very bland first impression.

Hmm, Titanfall, Destiny, now Evolve (though not the full release). Not making good first impressions I see. Wonder if Valve can pull it off with L4D3 (if they're shaking the formula up a bit, that is).

Makes sense, then. I've only bought four games, though, with five minute intervals. Should that really be considered irregular behaviour?

Oh, and remember Leviathan: The Last Day of the Decade? Looks like it's finally coming out on Steam, and even "soon" at that:

It's been more than a year since I originally got this game from the Not On Steam bundle. Can't believe it's finally going to be on Steam. Hopefully The Sea Will Claim Everything (another notable game from that bundle is getting there as well).

 

[JaseC]

I Steamgift down? I can't log-in.

The login link is broken:

No OpenID Server found at http://steamcommunity.com/openid

It's most definitely not a problem at Valve's end as I can sign into SteamDB just fine.

Edit: Speaking of which, SteamDB's logout confirmation page really needs a better title than "Error".

That does seem a tad overbearing.

The recent addition of the coop horde mode might be a good incentive to jump in now before the player population dwindles further.

I'd get it if the community wasnt dead. I mean it doesnt look like its going to rock my socks but when I played the beta it was a decent game.

 

[derExperte]

I'd get it if the community wasnt dead.

It isn't. Not healthy and it might die soon but there are still enough players around to play the main mode. Also the coop mode and sales over the holidays should bring in a few new people.

I thought I'd never get anywhere in Heavy Bullets. Then I realized you can destroy turrets by shooting at the bright boxes behind them. One of those 'I'm not as intelligent as my parents hoped'-moments. Cool game.

 

[Glass Rebel]

It made a very bland first impression.

Too bad, that one session I played as Support was pretty cool. Sadly, I never stick around too long in MP games so I don't feel comfortable dropping that much money on them.

 

[Fuzzification]

Oh god, can I stowaway on an enemy player spaceship and fill it with explosives and detonate it when he leaves the dock!? That would be awesome!

Closest thing to that that's been described is this:

Q: Can you provide an example of the kind of gameplay experience you're looking for? Maybe a description of what an encounter between two players might be like in terms of lethality, weapons used, moves used, length of play, etc?
A: there are so many. lets just pull one randomly from the sky.
A Persistent Universe experience. I'm a stealthy, solo player. I find a wrecked ship, i know scavengers will be around soon. I find a crate and put myself in it. I let the scavengers take the crate and put me in their ship. When i'm on their ship, some time later, i get out of the crate. Very quietly, i rummage around and find some goodies i like. I steal those... now i can either - A) Jump out the airlock and call a ride or B) go to their engine room and self destruct their ship or C) quietly hunt and execute the entire staff and take their ship.... or Z) they could have scanned the crate properly before loading it, blasted it with their ship and me with it....

How well the final product can provide such an experience remains to be seen.

man , the bumber button ( RB and LB ) for the X1 controller feel really wrong
the handle for the X1 controller is better the 360

 

[Sini]

Explore queue now seems to throw you to the store homepage when it hits unavailable game. Valve is so "creative" with their fixes...

Edit: Now I'm stuck in infinite loop. I click on "start another queue", it sends me to the homepage. I click on that button again and it happens again. Lame

Just played through The Room - fantastic little game!
Very well constructed puzzles that are just fun to solve. Loved the atmosphere.
I hope the second one will come to Steam in the future as well.

Didn't know the outside-of-the-ship parts had FPS elements as well, the scope of the game is truly amazing.

Wondering how it plays when they put it all together.

 

[kudoboi]

i just got this

look really nice
and its lighter then the X360
also the analog stick is ... how i say it , smaller

YEAH HIGH FIVE!

love it so far

 

[Vastag]

Yeah, you can't walk freely. You click, your character move a bit, then stops. You click again, and she walks another chunk of road before stopping.
And they sell this stuff for 7€.

Holy shit. From the screenshots it looked midly interesting, but I can't seem myself playing it.

 

[agniswarm]

Everywhere people are giving out Evolve keys. They should have just provided everyone the alpha rather than all these. It looks like everybody is getting a lot of keys.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Don't undercut me ass!

Hell no man. I market at the lowest price. Woke up to $15 in my wallet. Can't believe people spend money for this shit.

Going to give Dragon Age: Origins a go. Should I install a mod that skips The Fade? Is it really as bad as people claim? Any other essential mods?

I find it pretty bad, but I think it's something you need to experience the first time around and judge for yourself on future playthroughs. For your first run, you shouldn't need any gameplay mods.

Personally, I like the respec mod to respec all characters whenever I want (used for when NPC's join the party).

Have they done something with reviews, a lot of games I'm looking at don't seem to have any.

Earlier in the week a lot of people couldn't post any new reviews and it took a couple of days to fix. Maybe that was a temporary solution and the review servers/system is down for maintenance or replacement or something today. I'm also unable to see any.
