Steam Summer Sale 2013 Thread #2 - Many questions answered in the OP's FAQ

I was looking at someone's profile and saw Xelios at level 86 and thought "Whoa!", then saw someone on Xelios' profile at level 96! I almost soiled my pantaloons!

Edit: And there's a 99 on the 96 guy/gal's list. Pantaloons = shat!

sure, but it might be hassle to be on top of it but in my experience it has been worth it. There's enough cards now (at least for people with a similar amount of games than me) that you can make a significant amount of dough

Oh I'm not contending that there's some value for people who do want to make money, more that people shouldn't be too concerned with undercutting and plummeting prices. It was destined to happen given what the cards are, how they're distributed, and the sale. Just sell for whatever and go from there. Especially now the market is flooded.

And it makes the game devs/pubs happy because they sell more games. I would never have bought that Dinosaurs one without the cards. Or Triple Town. Fuck Triple Town.

Agreed. That is a benefit.

Well 5 hours of runing your computer for... 20 cents hard to justify at some point.

This too. If you actually factor in the electricity cost it's probably not worth it. But, you know, I want that meaningless trinket on my profile page :<. A sad, pathetic part of me probably things by maxing out my Half-Life badge I'll summon Half-Life 3 into existence.
 
Apparently there are some issues with Nvidia drivers and Just Cause 2. Damn, now I need to hope they fix it soon, I was eager to play it.

System Shock 2, y/n?

I heard great things but don't know if it's for me. Someone sell me on it. What other games does it compare to?

One of them is Bad Rats and the other one is System Shock 2. Pick carefully and don't yell at me :(

Think BioShock, but somewhat less forgiving. In terms of gameplay systems they're virtually identical, but Shock 2 places a larger focus on player intelligence. It's one of the finest games ever made.
 
what card

GeForce 660. I have this weird "streaking" effect going on while playing, by which I do not mean that Rico's running around naked, but that there's strange streaks running through the sky. Did some checking, and apparently it has something to do with the latest drivers I installed.

Surely Valve knew how the card market would turn to shit?

I guess they still make $0.01 on each sale which is plenty for them.

I'm currently on holiday in a different country and wanted to buy System Shock 2 with my Steam wallet funds but it won't let me :( it just keeps saying:

"The current payment method does not match the country of the store. The cart has been converted and the updated total will show on the next page. You may also review your cart here, or change your payment method below."

but I can't actually continue. When I click "Continue" the same message keeps popping up. I'm guessing by the time I get a response from Supprt SS2 will cost more again :(
 
Right, you never know who wants free stuff, I guess.

Can't someone buy it and gift it to you? I would, but I need to watch my finances closely. :p
