Who is that? :3

 

[Dr Dogg]

I just noticed that we are again about to overtake Achievement Hunters on mgs
http://www.metagamerscore.com/most_score_crew

play some cheevos games, steamgaf, you can do it!

If only MGS included Uplay chieveos. We'd be top of the world!

Actually I've put on quite a bit thanks to the YouTube and Amazon Instant Video apps on the Xbone. Oddly they are all 0 rated achievements but because how MGS calculates score based on percentage achieved they are around 200-500 points a piece.

 

[Arthea]

How do I force it to update? Last update it did on me was in September

edit: nvm, found it

that's odd, you don't have to force any updates, I never did, it updates by itself on constant basis.

 

[derExperte]

Add me on Origin (derExperte) for some Battlefront coop action.

Who is that? :3

A dude from a shitty German band.

 

[LurkerPrime]

firing up SAM right now

Oh lord, not this again.

yeah, I was wondering why uplay is excluded on several occasions, even Extra Life achievements are supported now.

They're not public available via an API so you'd probably have to scrape them of of Ubi's site. I think you also need to be signed in to grab them which as well all know is flaky at best.

Well, it didn't for me for some reason. Does it have something that I haven't visited the website until now?

 

[Arthea]

no, it doesn't, it can be a glitch, or you made your profile private at some point, did you?

Hitman GO is 10 cents. Everyone should grab it.

I won't, it's a trap and you know it!

Mine hadn't updated in 4 months, steam that is. PSN and Live had both updated in the last day.

My profile has always been public

 

[Arthea]

I tried Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae on Hard, fast switched to Easy, and not because enemies are strong, just because they are bullet sponges and they take years to be defeated.
In like 4 minutes I completed stage 1, while on Hard I barely reached wave 4 because the game spawns way too enemies and they take 15 minutes each to be killed.

 

[Deques]

In speaking of achievements, does anyone use TrueSteamAchievements.

It's similar to astats but with more stats to see

I'm not sure you are supposed to play on hard at the start, as your abilities carry, it made for the time when you are way stronger, I mean for a new game plus.

North America only, as per usual.

even better, now I won't be tempted

Change your region for Windows Store

 

[madjoki]

You could always change region from Windows options, but credit won't be shared which may or may not be problem.

Spoiler

all my credit is in EUR

 

[Arthea]

Change your region for Windows Store

Note: Most products purchased from Windows Store in one region will not work in another. This includes Xbox Live Gold and Groove Music Pass, apps, games, music, movies, and TV shows.

no, thanks but no, also MS isn't getting to me in any way, not after GFWL, ever

Yeah you are meant to play one difficulty and go to the next, as you buy the upgrades. You should play hard when you have all upgrades.

 

[TheAutomator]

So if I change my region I can buy Terminator Genesys?

 

[madjoki]

Movies have actual region locks.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Pretty sure it is.

Thanks for the link.

Not sure if I like it, but we'll see what happens.

 

[TheAutomator]

Movies have actual region locks.

Wow, so I can't buy it? Oh well.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Wow, so I can't buy it? Oh well.

Pretty sure it's just a rental

 

[Dr Dogg]

So what do we reckon the odd are the Lightning Returns ends up being featured on the first Steam of the Autumn sale? Probably not on sale or maybe something like -10% off for preorders but otherwise it's really going to get a bit suffocated. Of course this is Squenix and they'll probably just dump it on to the store for purchase on 10th and that will do for their 'marketing'.

Huh I used to use Treu Achievements way back when and did sign up for True Trophies but never really bothered with that spin off site. I guess it's time to join the True Steam Achievements site then.

Interesting, didn't realize they added support for Steam achievements.

2016?

Guilty Gear Xrd -Sign- might be earlier, as ASW have said they do have a game coming to PC in December, could be something else of course.

 

[ArjanN]

Double post, sorry.

 

[Messiah]

Guilty Gear Xrd -Sign- might be earlier, as ASW have said they do have a game coming to PC in December, could be something else of course.

Could very well be the case, considering they have Blazblue: Chronophantasm Extend releasing in early 2016 as well.

 

[Dragon1893]

If you still have a Vita then you should buy it, you're missing out on this gem.

Don't expect to play it on PC unless you can read Chinese.

Yeah, maybe next time it's on sale, money's always very tight for me.

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Wait, that's a guy in the pic?

I'm surprised as well

I think I'll just beat Easy and that's it.
I thought this was a proper game with a story mode, scenarios etc, instead it's just a group of arenas and nothing more.

Anyone else google pictures of chickrn and get sad they kill chicken so much?

 

[bobnowhere]

Be Mine 23 is now 6 games + 1 Album.

The first game is one of Albert and Otto, Koi-Koi Japan or Murder.

 

[ExoSoul]

oh, I see, well Ubi, you fail us again


btw, all accounts supported by mgs

You say that yet it still won't link to my PSN account.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

I like chicken burgers.

 

[Ludens]

.

It just feels like an extra mode you can find in many actions game. honestly.

 

[Grief.exe]

Just watched the Super Bunny Hop video on the Steam Link.

I didn't know that the WiiU Pro and the DS4 controllers actually function natively under an Xinput wrapper on the link. That is very impressive.

For some reason he tried to pair the Xbox controllers over wireless despite requiring a proprietary hardware connection. I don't know if it was a joke or just ignorance.

Uhm... I used TrueAchievements when I played on the Xbox. I might check this out.

 

[Lain]

Just woke up and found the Vendetta key waiting in my email.
It was actually weird, because they sent two keys, the first activated
Raven's Cry - Pre Order Package
The second activated
Vendetta - Curse of Raven's Cry Deluxe Edition
I do wonder why that is. Did they strip the old license off people? I can't see it as a gift in the license list, like it was before when I sent the email with the request. Or maybe activating their key turned my gift preorder in the retail? Still weird.

 

[MMBosstones86]

Wait, that's a guy in the pic?

Well that backfired.

 

[FloatOn]

Just watched a dragon quest heroes reviwe

Looks fun. I hope the port is solid as it looks like there is a ton of moving parts to this game.

 

[Uzzy]

Oh dear, those Valkyria Azure Blue Revolution whatever pics look terrible. Makes me sad to see those big frilly dresses. I want the Gallian Militia uniforms back, they looked great.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Well that backfired.
