Well he is gone, so....

[ashecitism]

It has a lose one. Basically you're dropped in to cause mayhem. It's not that simple but that's pretty much what happens. There are bases etc that you basically just blow everything to hell to liberate. There are some missions here and there to progress the story too. The real draw though is just screwing around in the world. You go in and destroy shit in towns, villages, cities, etc to liberate them and then every so often the story advances with some new story missions. The real draw though is just screwing around in the world.

hmm, then it's probably not for me. I can screw around for only so long before I get bored.

[Zuhzuhzombie!!]

There are three separate ones, and a dlc for Warband. The DLC is a multiplayer mode about the Napoleonic Wars and it's awesome. I've put 85 hours into that alone.

So Warband is the best one to grab?

 

[Palette Swap]

I just noticed some of my friends don't own JC2. That makes me want to punch them over IP.

If you mean Uplay, no. It still uses Uplay.

No, the other activation stuff. They apparently fixed that 18 months ago.

 

[NinjaCatfish]

Why is Steam still experiencing a heavy load. I thought Valve would fix this by now.

My guess is that they don't figure it's worth buying new servers for the 1 hour per day during sales that their current server capacity can't manage.

Their current system works well 99% of the time.

 

[Jonm1010]

No, not even in 400 days.

Man what the fuck! Telltale must hate my money or something.

I'm actually offended that they would release ANOTHER game, 400 days, with the same save glitch on top of it. Fuck you telltale!

 

[Martian]

lol @ java, and people thought I was the worst poster of the steam thread.

Dont worry, we'll focus our anger towards you soon enough....

 

[Mick Stagger]

done.

done dotta

 

[73V3N]

How many games did he end up taking selling? He had 9 I believe last night

fixed.

 

[Wolfie5]

Got FTL, Just Cause 2 and Walking Dead for a total of €11,72. Feels good

 

[Symphonic]

Man what the fuck! Telltale must hate my money or something.

I'm actually offended that they would release ANOTHER game, 400 days, with the same save glitch on top of it. Fuck you telltale!

It's not another game. It's DLC that's tied into the same client.

 

[Yondy604]

Hey guys I have a buddy who got like 20 keys for a few games, Ill try to snag a few and give them away to my gaf friends

(big games like metro, and anon, etc)

 

[need4speed]

Well he is gone, so....

don't worry I'm probably be banned soon as well.

 

[Digoman]

Crap... Fez, Surgeon Simulator and Runner 2. This sale will not end well for me...

 

[keit4]

Only Chivalry for me today.

 

[JaseC]

Man what the fuck! Telltale must hate my money or something.

Telltale and Ubi are two peas in a pod when it comes to fixing bugs.

 

[Shadowplay1979]

Thanks Marrec!

 

[Danj]

My guess is that they don't figure it's worth buying new servers for the 1 hour per day during sales that their current server capacity can't manage.

Their current system works well 99% of the time.

But they should use the

Spoiler

infinite power of the

cloud to provide peak burst capacity. That's what it's for!

 

[santeesioux]

So Warband is the best one to grab?

Definitely, it has the main Mount and Blade game in it anyway i think. If you wait for it to be a daily or whatever though, you'll probably be able to get everything for really cheap. I got the whole set for $7.50 like last summer.

 

[-griffy-]

I bought Surgeon Simulator and pre-ordered Saints Row IV. However Steam says:



But I actually spend about 50 euros. Why doesn't it count Saints Row? Because it's not a summer sale game? Wtf is that bullshit.

Most likely because it's a preorder.

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Got chivalry and Fez. Sale redeemed.

Question

Did Bastion have Cards yesterday afternoon? Or were they added later in the evening/today?

Need to know if I should re-download (originally did it around 5est yesterday)

 

[woo and indeed hoo]

Any chance of the mods editing his tag to...

I laughed longer and harder than I probably should have at that, bless you .

Despite all the drama surrounding him, Java's the only one who said what we were all thinking.

No.

 

[Grief.exe]

If I buy a gift now, can I store it in my inventory until I want to email it to myself for modbot?

Or is it stuck in my inventory once I put it there.

You can leave it in your inventory until you want to gift it

Nope - it isn't stuck - just don't add it to your library ;-)

 

[GasProblem]

Bought Chivalry and FTL.

Rogue Legacy and Sleeping Dogs are the only games I'm still buying.

Really....

 

[delirium]

My guess is that they don't figure it's worth buying new servers for the 1 hour per day during sales that their current server capacity can't manage.

Their current system works well 99% of the time.

Well I would think Valve would have some elastic cloud infrastructure.

 

[razgriz417]

So far not all that much damage for me just yet.

Bought Counterstrike complete and the Hotline Miami Soundtrack (paid full price when it came out). Here's hoping I'll see a nice deal on Rouge Legacy, Super House of Dead Ninjas and maybe a bigger discount on Warframe and Metro: LL DLC ( was one of the lucky ones yeterday)

 

[Yondy604]

Question for my friends.

How often do you get trading cards?. Can you get multiple at once (as in 3/4/5 games open)

 

[wanders]

Is defiance worth it?

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Damage thus far:

Rogue Gallery
The Walking Dead: 400 Days
Runner 2

 

[Jonm1010]

It's not another game. It's DLC that's tied into the same client.

Well ok but it's still ridiculous that they would release content that they are asking people to pay them money for without fixing a glitch they are clearly aware of at this point and is affecting a not insignificant number of users of their product.

 

[A Human Becoming]

If I buy a gift now, can I store it in my inventory until I want to email it to myself for modbot?

You can email it later. Well, you should be able to. Steam isn't doing it right now (for me anyway). >_>

 

[Rickenslacker]

If I buy a gift now, can I store it in my inventory until I want to email it to myself for modbot?

You can send it to e-mails from your inventory as well.

 

[Coolbgdog12]

Why is Black Ops 2 so much money still?? That game is nearly a year old and it's still $30 at most?? I'd buy it but not for $30.

 

[ramoisdead]

Man I would love Surgeon Simulator. Sadly I don't have no monies now. =[

 

[Grief.exe]

Is defiance worth it?

Not really

Question

Did Bastion have Cards yesterday afternoon? Or were they added later in the evening/today?

Need to know if I should re-download (originally did it around 5est yesterday)

Yes, you can send yourserlf an email later

Question for my friends.

How often do you get trading cards?. Can you get multiple at once (as in 3/4/5 games open)

I think some people here were getting cards from 2 games at once, but I've never tried myself.

 

[The_Monk]

Can any kind GAFfer tell how is the Combat/Turn Based in The Last Remnant or how it works? It seems it's not like an old School RPG, but I may be wrong.

I'm tempted, however I'm very bad at RPG's despite loving them a lot.

 

[KPJZKC]

Okay, going to try to organise a chivalry 4-pack but need someone in US to host.

1. Timan
2. KPJZKC
3. Flambe
4. Divius

All filled up, sorry guys! Someone set up another one and the slots will get filled quickly though!

 

[masterkajo]

Question for my friends.

How often do you get trading cards?. Can you get multiple at once (as in 3/4/5 games open)

I am running 5 games at once and got 3 cards at the same time. But then nothing for 3 hours. So I went back to run 1 game at a time. Still dropping very slow (~1 card per hour). Seems their servers getting hit hard.

 

[vermadas]

I hate when I'm tempted by games that aren't on my wishlist. Haven't been into shooty games lately but Blood Dragon looks amazing. Runner2 looks damn good as well.

 

[Sianos]

Still looking for another person for chivalry 4-pack

This spot for Divius. :O

 

[blindrocket]

I think that I recall reading in the other Steam thread that DayZ was due kind of soon and may cost up to $25?
I want to make sure I have enough in my account for that.

Can anyone kind of confirm that loose bit of info for me? Thanks

 

[Divius]

Still looking for another person for chivalry 4-pack

Count me in!
