STEAM | October 2016 - A month where 100 games launch rather than coming out earlier

Lots of games with online multiplayer mode have multipayler only dlc Like Battlefield BC2.
This has been the case for years.

I don't think he's being serious.

Unfortunately the multiplayer is pretty dead these days besides a handful of hardcore fans and hackers so there really is very little point to getting any of it unless you just want the +1 to your dlc count.

For JaseC or someone into the steam registry: is there a way to check if MGSV Definitive Experience is a separate app or something in addition to the current MGS entry? To know if maybe there's a free/paid upgrade option.

I found this:
https://steamdb.info/sub/74452/

but I think it's another thing, considering is almost one year old.

That's just a GZ + TPP bundle. It's easy to tell if something is a different app as you can just search the name and see if there duplicate entries (e.g. there are two public versions of Dishonored). There are rare exceptions, though, such as The Witcher 3 GOTY, which, despite months of activity, didn't end up being used for the GOTY Edition release after all.

I tried a coop mission in AC: Unity and it was such a waste of time. It was a two-man mission and me & my random ally just kept dying. The mission objectives were pretty dumb too, but at least it had a pretty cool intro cutscene.

The game in general leaves me with very mixed feelings. On one hand, it's beautiful and some of the missions are sorta fun? On the other, it's an AC game with a full spectrum of hereditary flaws.

One of my biggest gripes is the story, actually. Specifically its integration with historical events. The game never really expalins what's going on and why outside of its own politics and mythos. History is always just a very distant backdrop. We see the king giving a speech at the parliament, but we never really learn much more abou that presumably important event — it's all about Arno sneaking in to meet his friend. And then the Storming of the Bastille is used solely as a pretense to get him out of jail — and NOTHING is explained about the revolution, the state of the monarchy or anything else (and there is a big time skip almost immediately after that which, again, doesn't explain all the ongoing changes).

It's been reopened now, though.

That's amusing. It reminds me of when Darkspore's servers went down and EA hadn't commented after a few days, compelling a mod on Maxis' forums to put up a notice stating in no uncertain terms that the game has been abandoned, which was later pulled and replaced with an actual announcement from Maxis itself reassuring everyone that the game was still being supported. I think said mod was demoted, too, in a harsh reminder that being a community mod doesn't make you an employee.
 
Congrats. I imagine you feel empty now. What will you be able to play after Spelunky?
So true. But on the flip-side I thoroughly do enjoy no longer seeing Spelunky the moment I close my eyes - yes, even while blinking.
Congrats. I've gotten back into Spelunky doing the daily runs, don't think I've got past the Jungle yet
Still a lot of things to do

Well done Fresh Veggie. Now try to do a Low Scorer run to really break your spirit.
Thanks all. Pretty proud I'm now part of the small elite of Hell runners ( ^_^)/

Entire Gang and Seen It All I'll probably do. Meat Boy only locked character and in Journal only thing left is Worm, Vlad, his Cape and the Red Stone.

Low Scorer though..... I like a challenge but I'm no sadist! :p
grats, now to entertain the life of dailies and eggplant runs
Just learned about eggplant runs from you.... shiiiiiiiiiiiet.
Someone gift me and veggie TowerClimb as the next pinnacle of my life. rofl

Dang it looks awesome.

I hope they shut it down again.

At some point people are going to need to stop and evaluate whether it's worth expending this much energy on a mediocre-to-poor videogame.

Use this experience and fucking grow from it.

If Tizoc has fun with mad max then let him play and don't be so rude.

New Rob Fearon piece, about that PC Gamer/Early Access article.
The piece opens declaring that, and I quote, “Valve does not have formal penalties for developers who violate the rules of Early Access, according to a document obtained by PC Gamer”. Except they do. They absolutely do. Your entire storefront on Steam is at the whim of Valve at all times, if they find out you are going against their wishes, they will take action.

But what if they are though?

1. They aren't. 2. There is no top secret collusion 3. It's a whole bunch of hand-wringing over one motherfucking video game.

There are hundreds of games released every year, just on Steam. They need to find another one and, you know, have some fun for once.

Wanted to buy Mafia 3 on GMG right now and after I put it in my cart, the price went up from 39€ to 49€. I'm logged in and the game shows up under VIP, but the VIP price is gone. Has the sale ended?

It has the same problem as Just Cause 3 which was also by Avalanche which is that there is actually not much unique content and they pad the fuck out of the game with Ubisoft collectible events and repeated side missions.

For you.

Heh, I love how detailed the world is, all the crazy differents outposts and places, the great car combat and so on.



Still the best designed wasteland in a videogame ever.
