Support NeoGAF

[The Dear Leader]

I'm about 70% serious. But I'll keep that offer on the table.
-----------
You guys know how much I love you all when I'm playing a CSGO comp match and trying to talk to 10 people at the same time about getting AMD codes.

I noticed you were in game this whole time, I was like how in the hell is he multitasking and play CS at the same time lol.

Well, I guess this is a whole different kind of Banner Saga.

GOT DAMN that pun is on some next level shit, well done.

He even got a warning to and the chance to get out of there.

 

[DocSeuss]

Actually it's the opposite, "pls gimme keys" in the title, and "nice thread btw" goes in the post.

I feel bad that I don't 'get' the 'nice thread btw' title. Must have happened before my return.

 

[Sub Zero]

maneill99 is gone. He really went to town on that other guy in the B/S/T thread.

Avatar is gone too. Perm?

 

[madjoki]

Include the ship, skin, racing module, and arena commander module. Not the actual game though.

What's the difference or rather what I will be missing if I ever play it?
(Obiously other ships, but excluding that)

 

[ashecitism]

Avatar is gone too. Perm?

iirc if a junior gets banned that's a perm. edit: oh yeah, that's a glitch

 

[def sim]

That's an odd way to go. He seems to be a very angry individual.

Avatar is gone too. Perm?

IIRC, that's just a glitch and not an indicator of a perm. He was a junior before the ban, though. Whether he's gone for good is up to the mod.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Avatar is gone too. Perm?

Aren't junior bans permanent? The avatar thing's a myth.

 

[Mokoi]

Avatar is gone too. Perm?

Avatar dissappearing is no indication of a perm. It's just a bug with the system or something. Although you can assume a perm.

Edit: yeah what they said above.

You wont be able to play Squadron 42 which is the single player campaign, or Star Citizen which is the huge persistent universe stuff, you will only be able to race and do bot/PVP deathmatch. But, you can upgrade to include the game proper later on if you want.

 

[ViviOggi]

First time I've seen a mod give a warning first in my short time on GAF, you're a lucky guy maneil.

Welp I take that back, rip in pepperonis

That's just a myth. Classy was perma'd, for example, and he still has his Saoirse avatar.

He wasn't a junior in the traditional sense.

 

[Widdly Scuds]

Time for my first ever GAF Impressions! I just finished STFU and I wanted to share my thoughts with people

STFU was a solid action-platformer with a really interesting and incredibly well executed time mechanic. You are able to rewind time at any point a limited amount of times and when you do, your previous lives play out as they did before. It made death feel inevitable but without consequence allowing you to take more risks and be very creative with the mechanics. Every character felt unique and seemed to bring their own pros and cons to the table. My only complaint is that until the final level I was able to use two characters to get through the whole game. I’ll admit I didn’t collect everything but I would have liked each and every character to be a lot more necessary and not just a luxury.

I started it a few days ago (thanks again sub zero) it has some great humor too.

RIP Maniel

I assume upgrading is cheaper than buying it? I'm confused by the modules this game has. Do you buy everything separately?

If there's one criticism I have of the banning system on GAF, is that once you're banned (even temp) there's no way to PM anyone / mod, or appeal it whatsoever. You're just stuck until it's lifted. I understand some example must be set, but it seems draconian.

You can try e-mailing support@neogaf.com if you truly feel slighted. You're unlikely to receive a reply but EviLore does read what comes through and people have been unbanned this way.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Ah. So I suppose he'll be back after a lengthy break.

We will welcome him back with open arms.

hmm couldn't you just email the support account?

 

[phoenix296]

He was perma juniored and now he is perma banned. RIP Maniel, you will live on in our hearts.

 

[cardinalmind]

I felt that his responses were extremely harsh and antagonistic. I know his reasoning too but the way he said can derail a thread fast.

I should have bought more to give to SteamGAF (give, not sell). I know I don't post much, and could look like I'm only in for the giveaways but this could have been my chance to at least give back to the community.

Didn't realize this was an option. Seems a bit roundabout, but at least it's something.

 

[MakeshiftChef]

I still have 4 AMD bronze level codes left.

 

[DocSeuss]

Read his posts on that page.

That's amazing. Two days before I came back, so yeah.

 

[xBladeM6x]

If you're just giving them away, I'd take one just for Banner since it seems to get a lot of praise. If not, that's cool too. Lol

damn Maneil. its not worth it.

I noticed you were in game this whole time, I was like how in the hell is he multitasking and play CS at the same time lol.

My brain was on overdrive. I got in last place on the team but my score was still better than half the other team lol But yeah that was tough trying to alt tab out, back in. get a kill, back out. rinse and repeat.

 

[The Dear Leader]

I assume upgrading is cheaper than buying it? I'm confused by the modules this game has. Do you buy everything separately?

Well it is a little confusing, but I'll try and explain, you buy packages which include a ship, Squadron 42, Star Citizen and other goodies (insurance for ship, racing and AC modules, etc.) You can always but additional ships to add to your package for extra money. What the AMD thing is, it's more of a demo than anything, it just includes a ship and access to the racing module and bot/TDM module, in order to get full access to the game you will have to buy a package which includes a ship, S42, and SC, not sure if it's cheaper if you have the AMD ship but it might be I'm not sure if you can just buy access to the game and no extra ship.

Currently I have a package which includes a ship, S42, SC and other goodies, and the AMD code will just add that ship to my hangar since I already have a game package.

 

[Volimar]

Wow. On one hand, I can see him trying to look out for GAFfers. On the other hand, when a mod tells you to settle down, you

SETTLE

THE FUCK

DOWN

Sorry dude, hope it's not perm.



I don't understand that AMD thing at all. So you didn't have to order the cards to get the games?

 

[yuraya]

Damn. Can't believe I missed out on such a steal with the AMD stuff. only like 15 minutes late very disappointed.

If anyone has spare gold code my friend wants to trade but he has lag add him stearncornmunity/gimmecodepls

nice thread btw

Spoiler

That snarky response to the mod really did him in.

 

[xBladeM6x]

nice thread btw

I hope this becomes a thing. Lol

 

[Deques]

Alright, it appears that I have 3 spare bronze keys which I can't use because of country restrictions. PM me if you want them, first come first serve I wouldn't mind Aliens/SC/Payday2 keys in return if you have some

Edit: Aaaaand gone!

Thanks dude. Too bad it doesn't have Alien Isolation >.<

 

[Hugstable]

All this stuff was crazy tonight. RIP Maneil

 

[xBladeM6x]

sweet post btw

sweet compliment btw

 

[Deleted member 125677]

I missed all the AMD stuff while sleeping. yolo

 

[Manik]

Gosh darn. The one day I don't check gaf religiously! Typical!

 

[Sajjaja]

Get a laptop for your multitasking while gaming needs, Shadow.

Can you imagine the shit Saj would have said if he knew what you were doing?

Shadow so generous and kind.

 

[Chance Hale]

Just got 29 TF2 keys via AMD. Level 100 here I come

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

I bet it involves a lot of four letter words.

 

[Intheflorsh]

What I don't get is why Maneli99 was all pissed off at me but wrote this earlier on in the thread:

Doubt it, they are still in stock

If anyone has a gold let me know, ill buy it off you for a bit more ( Or give you 7 banner sagas LOL)

Yes, he was willing to pay more than my "scumbag" price of $15 for a gold code. Seems to me the man was just sore about missing the boat.

 

[InfiniteNine]

Got an AMD Gold code for me and the girlfriend~! I grabbed Sniper Elite 3, Darksiders 2, and Alien Isolation and she got Alien Isolation, Star Citizen, and Sniper Elite 3.

 

[Sajjaja]

He also wanted to trade $0.39 Tropico 4 games for a TF2 key each. Not really sure what his deal was. But whatever, he'll be back and we'll all forget this and chill out in this thread like usual.

 

[phoenix296]

Kind. Care. Love. Life. Nice.

You are a wonderful and gentle person Sajjaja. I will use your kindness as an example of how everyone should treat each other to make the world a better place.
