Are any of the Uplay rewards for Child of Light actually worth it? It just looks like microtransaction type stuff to make the game go faster.
Plug HDMI into TV > Split Screen Co-op on the couch... for $50 less. Hell, you could probably buy a second copy of the game to do the LAN party for full PC experience for less than the Steam Link will run you. And I'm guessing that most people will be using wi-fi for one of their Steam Link'ed devices... which means latency, which is less responsive, so why even bother...
There is no way we are hooking up a HDMI cable through 3 floors. Also she's using it for a load of other games, so it's hardly a one game solution. Still not ideal though, but good enough for £39
i mean, it's a programming puzzle in the same way spacechem is
as someone that could be considered sort of a coder it just makes sense to see puzzles like these that do all the logic chains and whatnot as programming puzzlers so u know, even if it's not exactly that, it kind of is
but yeah 25$ is pretty steep

Alesso is a Swedish DJ, Overkill is also Swedish, which was pretty much the basis for them making an entire heist advertising him. Le Castle Vania I believe provided music for John Wick, which was a movie that Payday received promotional DLC for. They must have gotten in touch with him at some point during that partnership to hire him for extra tracks.
As for what you're missing, here's a whole thread about it! A short and sweet breakdown would be that Overkill prided themselves on community outreach and trust, kept going back on that over the course of the past few years, but it wasn't until they added microtransactions and made the community out to be the bad guys that things really started to boil over.

Thanks for the informative answer, I am clearly out of the Payday loop.

forgive my dumb question but does idle master drop cards anymore or just idle to the 2 hr mark? i ran it for about 4 hours the other day and got nothing
you supposed to run it till the card drop, its vary for each game.
you can idle all the games up to 2hrs, then it will idle them individually, or you can go straight to individual. it's a safe assumption that the game it was idle has horrible drop times
They are also spending money on VR HMD without any good reason and they don;t have enough money to compete with Vive/Oculus. They are bad with money management and they have too many people for projects that they are doing.

Just leave it running over night. Had about 20ish cards when I woke up.
payday 2 is like the most annoying game to have installed ever
it has like weekly updates, group notifications popups, new dlc all the time, it's like give me back my life already ;_;
Take it a step further!
Make 2 virtual machines (each on their own screen) that play the game on instances of Windows.
that took long enough!

the base price of Black Ops III at GMG is $43.79 now...the current voucher doesn't work with it though but credit should
Come on now guys, what I posted wasn't actually messing with him.
I'm serious with mine too.
It's not like it's hard to make a virtual machine.
You can get a Win7 environment straight from MS (not licensed, but Win7 doesn't care - no windows updates for virtual machine? lol I don't care)
Just need a lot of RAM to run 3 Windows and a good video card.
That's much better, if these were Toukiden and DW8 prices at launch, I would already have them. But now, sales are coming, Xmas coming, we need to go lower.
Also tomorrow Kecmo HB bundle anyway
Serious, sure -- also a bit insane.

Nope, I didn't get any of them. I barely used any potions or stardust going through the game and I went through on the hardest difficulty. You can use a guide to get the confessions. The only stuff that might be worthwhile is the artwork.
There are two things wrong with this world, one is stupidity, other is Microsoft (windows specifically), I don't remember who was that guy was that had win updates disabled but he turns to be the smart one, because recently windows updater tried to fry my new hard disk literally, I'm still not sure I saved it, but let's hope I did, never again. I'm just so used to auto updates that to remember updating manually will be a pain but so less costly that it's not even a competition.

Is there any virtual machine that supports GPU calls?
I guess there is PCI-e passthrough if you have multiple GPUs and CPU which supports it, but apart from that?
Very tempting. I hope there's a way to play offline against bots. The movement system is also a concern for me. Did anyone like it during the beta?

Kind of regret not getting it when it was $10 on Steam almost a year ago. Oh well, Winter Sale is around the corner.
Because fuck you, give me money.
New Humble Monthly teaser:

I'd say:
Besiege
Saints Row (IV?)
and don't know what else

you have better chances of that happening if you'll wait for Kecmo HB bundle with me.

Better be Gat in Hell otherwise that is worth like 3 dollars in bundle fodder (I loved SR4 but it has been really cheap)

If Capcom could happen anything is possible.

It's worth more than that.
You'll get $10 out of it, I'd wager, so grab it the next time it's on sale.
Come on now guys, what I posted wasn't actually messing with him.
I wasn't really messing with him, specifically.
I was more or less messing with the original post that questioned whether the EE on consoles was different than PC. There's literally no reason it should be and considering the game started on PC and the update is coming for free to PC owners, it wouldn't really make much sense to have Larian make a "alternate" enhanced edition for PC that lacked features put into the console.
Jawmuncher just had the privilege of being the post that I decided to use to be snarky/sarcastic about the notion. From there, it was just more fun poked at some of the #PCMR elitisms that pop up now and again, but hey, sometimes joking and the truth are closely related.
How did "MS updates" try to "fry your new hard disk literally"?
Grab it this time, dammit. It's a fun ride.
Pretty much.

Ugh, just saw that you need to complete the main game before RE5 will let you play the DLC >_>
I already played the base game on 360 but not the DLC >_<

I figured that out pretty early.
I'm just used to getting disbelief when I mention that you can do what I said to essentially split-screen on separate screens. Sure, it's not possible with all games -- but it is possible with some! Ah well, I still hope for the day that other devs don't strip out features from PC versions just because.
Google and download a completed save so you can play the DLC?
I just like to run xp from W7 for vintage programs.
Although from what I know of Linux it seems the much better option. I am planning to move over to Linux after I'm done w/ W7. W8 is meh & W10 is pretty much NSA @ this point.
I know Chrome consumes alot. But as for the whole update fiasco. From what I know its only for W10. My W7 is running great.

Did you go to the Extras? I recall on 360 you didn't have to beat it.

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.

Don't know, going off the word of Steam forums. Was contemplating getting the capcom bundle before it disappears.

They're probably trying to make the consoles & PC look similar in performance so gullible fans continue to dish out the $$$ to them.

I'll try it myself downloading now.
It's not unlocked for me, where it would be under extras is just a row of question marks.
