Just read the review in the Gameplay (Belgian Game magazine) and I'm sold :)

If anyone wants to split one, I can pay via Paypal or can provide you with all sorts of vintage weapons in TF2 (just for those who are interested in that).

My steam ID: Ryan__ (that's 2 underscores)

Looking forward to playing this game!

Willing to trade a copy for either Terraria or $6 via PayPal. Either one is ok. Can set it up around 12pm on my lunch break. :)

Just picked this up due to the forum effect. If 6 bucks is burning a hole in your pocket and want my extra copy, shoot me a PM.

It's heart warming to see such enthusiasm about FS in here - really one of the best games I've played this year. Keep on buying it people!

New to Steam here but if I want to trade for say, L4D2, then, how does this work? We exchange codes and I will have L4D2 registered to my account once I redeem the code? Why does it seem like Valve games are the most commonly offered trades?

Awwe damnit I want to pick this up, but I'm running low on funds and it's only day 5. What to do. :(


Story of my summer sale this year :(

They should have waited 'till after I did my vacation job.

I send you the game as a gift, as soon as you click 'redeem' it will be registered to your account. I got all these valve games from the potato ARG. Send me a PM if you're interested.

Thanks drkOne, glad you got your copy anyhow :)

If anyone fancies going halves with a UK'er please let me know via PM or something - don't mind paying for the game (will be home in a couple of hours and will buy right away) or just sending someone some funds over PayPal

I have an extra copy and willing to trade for a random game. I do own the entire Valve collection and don't really like FPS's.

I have an extra copy, but I'm going to wait for today's sales to go up before I decide what I want to trade for.

Question: if you're not really into multiplayer, is it worth it to play against the AI?

I would say yes. Outside of the campaign, the skirmish generator is extremely nice and essentially has an infinite number of scenarios you can come up with and also has a random terrain generation. With that said though, don't fear the multiplayer in this -- you'll probably be surprised. This is a non-time intensive multiplayer that is essentially play by e-mail. You can sit down, play a turn, and be done with it until you have another chance to sit down. No need to go back and forth immediately.

I love these types of war games... Fields of Glory was another personal favorite recently released... Reminds me of when I used to trade chess turns over online chat. ;)

As the guys mentioned before me.

However, I am not that into multiplayer myself and I certainly dont like to play against strangers. And I am having a blast with the mp of FS.

You might find yourself in the same situation since its not the same feeling of mp, you arent "stuck" with strangers. They simply offer a different AI so to say. More options and ways you need to adapt to without the hassle of being a "mp" game except that you might wait a day for a turn.

But since you can have multiple games on at the same time, this isnt really an issue.

Is it safe to create the account with an actually active e-mail? Afraid of spam, that's all. Can these messages be canceled etc?

Yup, and you can toggle the mail notifications off.
 
I want to get this game, but I'm at work and won't be able to buy it before today's sales are over. If anyone has an extra copy and could gift it to me, I'll paypal $6.25 (I would prefer US based people so that neither of us have to pay fees).

If anyone could help me out, please quote this message and send me a pm.

I actually couldn't wrap my head around the game until I just said fuck it and played the campaign.

course the fact that it kept logging me off while i did tutorial helped made me give up on it, but whatever

I'd exchange my FS for your L4D2 but a quick Google tells me that the games in the Valve pack from the Potato ARG are not giftable so yeah.

Initially they weren't, but Valve added giftable versions later.

Pointless decision really. It's a 5-10 minute tutorial and it'll help indefinitely.

Picked it up during the sale, absolutely loving it. Took me about an hour to pass the first mission but after 5-6 attempts I really got the hang of it. Favourite moment so far was abusing the length of time it takes for a sniper to set up a shot by running past him behind a wall one turn, then popping round the other side of the wall and taking him out with a shotgun on the next turn. sogood.gif

Okay, if someone has any copies left I'm still looking.

And if someone wants to buy the package but keep one, I'll pay you 6 for the other copy. PM me.

If you are still looking for a copy I'm looking for $6.25 or maybe a game from today's sale. I already have my copy so no worries about getting back to me immediately.

They definitely are giftable, but I'm afraid I've already traded with someone else anyway.

At this point you should just buy it and then sell your leftover whenever. I am sure there are loads of people currently not checking the thread, or deciding to buy it later anyway, even for 1$ more than the cheapest possible price.

Can an on-board graphic card (ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics) handle the game?

The site doesn't even say the minimum requirement (just even netbook can run it) :O
