Has anyone had experience with Steam support and account hacking? A friend of mine found out last Friday his account had been hacked and could no longer access it. He emailed Steam support straight away and hasn't heard anything. Meanwhile someone has bought the account off a Russian website and is now using it to play CSGO and DOTA2.
been busy lately but playing REmake in 20-30mins bursts wasnt very smart, im actually out of ink ribbons because of it, because every time I did one of those small chunks I didnt want to lose that progress even if it wasnt much. Need to save it for when I have some actual time to play.
Also fuck Hunters. But not really. But kinda.

Once you finally get a hold of them, They should check the ip and ask for some form of verification that you own if. Such as a CDkey or something if I recall. You should be alright since your friend did it early. After this he should definitely use 2FA.
Yeah RE is kind of a selfish game. Unless you're on very easy or have infinite ink ribbons. You really can't play in bursts. Most of the time you're better off in your burst time trying stuff out to see the future like Nicolas cage in next, and the. Using that knowledge when you actually sit down and play.

Is Football Manager 2017 a Yay or a Nay? Also, is there an FMGAF thread?

I think Steam support works by how long you have been a member. Those people with 10+ years of service and 2000 games seem to get pretty fast response.
But yeah 2FA is a must.
What the fuck is wrong with Steam? Nothing in my cart is a double. Nothing in my cart is something I already own, and yet I keep getting that error, which roughly translates as hey, you have something in your cart which is already included in another package.
It's simply not letting me buy anything which is part of a pack, like the Trillion bundle.
Edit: Apparently, Trillion got updated to include the 10$ DLC for free and that was triggering my problem. I tried removing stuff from the cart 1 at a time but it was still giving me the issue even without the Trillion bundle which was weird, but now managed to make the purchase.

The tag-filtering is a good idea on paper, but it actually requires people not to abuse the tag system and/or for moderators to actually respond to tag reports. And I doubt either of those will happen any time soon. (Hell, this tag filtering might actually prompt more tag abuse to make sure more filtering happens.)
I'd have been happier if they brought back Earth's Mightiest Heroes (instead of that shitty Avengers Assemble) or that other Justice League, but...I'll take it.

I'll mention that too him, a CDkey seems like a very good way to confirm its his account. He told me he did have steam guard activated but never got an email mentioning his email was changed. He email was recently pwned, so that could be how they gained access.
It's precisely because I'm into some of those that I need some filtering. Steam thinks I should like all those visual novels just because I like Guilty Gear,Valkyria Chronicles etc. I was going to just block VNs but I'm tempted to block anime as a whole now just to see what makes it through because of my other preferences.
Yay. And not yet, but there should definitely be one.

Feels good to finally play Dragon's Dogma. Was put off by the frame-rate on PS3 and couldn't afford it at release on PC.
Visually it hasn't aged well but it's fun from what I've played.
I must be close to finishing Doom, as much as I love it I'm ready for it to be over, it's getting a bit repetitive.

From Paradox regarding Tyranny:
"Let's play embargo is November 8th, 6 AM Pacific Review embargo is November 10th, 6AM Pacific - So you can expect coverage and reviews before launch"
So might have a whole lot more info coming out in about an hour. Not sure when I should post the OT. What's the general rules on posting those?

Dishonored 2 preloads apparently go up today. When is GMG sending me my key?
Speaking of Key sending - I used GamesPlanet for the first time and there are a couple of impressive things over GMG.
First off - simple as fuck refund option right in the account per game, and they are very prompt, possibly automated for preorders.
Second - they list the exact day you will get the key - for Tyranny that is apparently today. Let's see if they stick to it
Third they actively support buying from different regions.

And make cheese grate again folks
I bought 6 keys, some for people with slow net, so hopefully soon. Apparently Gamesplanet already sent out keys.
Yeah, Tyranny was a really good price on Gamesplanet. Given the absolute cock-ups GMG have had recently (allowing the purchase of wrong region keys for Civ VI with no refunds, for instance), I think I'll be using GMG as a last resort now, and checking Gamesplanet first. Dishonored 2 will be my last purchase from GMG (and that's just because getting a refund from them is like drawing teeth).

Where was it on sale for $20? o.o
Bought it for friends not myself.
Was $47.99 but I assumed with how much GAF loved them they'd be reputable, servers me right for not looking into the recent shitshow.

Dishonored 2 had a $20 price error somewhere???
No, it's just that I buy Denuvo games at that price only, he assumed I bought it for myself.

Mystery Gift --
So Dishonored 2 finally knocked CIV6 off the top sellers list. It was atop for nearly 1 month iirc. Very impressive stuff.
Yea I'm liking it a lot too. I wanna see how they do it for the sales and if its any different.

There are mods and ENBs out there if you want to enhance the visuals.

Regarding Mass Effect, the trailer got me pretty hyped, I miss that universe, it's been a while since ME3.

Very late last night I finished this. The story is not very deep or interesting but what makes it stand out is the story-telling. The atmosphere is filled to the brim and the many collectibles do a great job at fleshing it out. I did learn a lot about the world of Batman so it was a little disappointing that so few bosses were in the game. Oh well, there's enough future games to rectify that.
The combat is the right amount of challenge but it's more on the easy side. Leveling up Batman wasn't very satisfying. It's the gadgets you upgrade and acquire during the campaign which add for nice new gameplay mechanics. Getting access to previously unreachable places makes for a nice sense of progression.
While neither being a classic open-world nor traditionally linear, the mixture of both elements worked very well in the end. There is minimal backtracking unless you have an itch to complete all Riddler Challenges - which I did - but thanks to compact levels it didn't get tedious. I'm interested to see how this changes with future Batman games that went open-world.
On a technical level the game holds up surprisingly well, especially with unusually good texture work. Of course there are low-poly characters, assets and unconvincing lighting at spots but given it's a game from 2010, it still looks very nice. The pre-rendered cutscenes on the other hand are of unquestionably putrid quality with at times more artifacts than video. How did this even got through. Very recommended.

Yessss Hunie Pop is a GOG Connect game. Now I can hide my shame and play it without logging it on Steam.
Planet Explorers is out of Early Access, time to revisit it, it seemed cool when I tried it like 1 year ago
Ive never seen anyone say that City is better than Asylum. You would have to be some sort of crazy trump supporter to think that

City is the best of the Arkham games, by far.

Asylum, easily.
It's Asylum. Always has been and always will be. City's open world doesn't replace the Metroid style of progression from Asylum in a satisfactory way. It gives you more to do but doesn't feel as good doing it. The combat is mostly the same and the writing is ok, but requires you to make some big leaps of understanding or reading some tie-in comics to figure out how things got to this point.
