The store page for Kerbal says there aren't any objectives is that true? I have a hard time getting in to pure sandbox games like that. Might hold off until it gets out of early access.

Kind of want Kerbal, but price is a bit high. I'll wait for a future sale. Just realized I missed out on System Shock 2 despite attempting to stay up for it.

Objectives are still a few updates down the line. There are mods that create a sort of career mode, but it's a bit clunky.

Hey I want to do more modbot giveaways of the same game with multiple copies, but steam wont send the gift link to the same email. Is there a way around this or is steam just flooded at the moment?

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Nope, just dumb luck. Level only affects your booster pack droprate
I'm not even sure what a booster pack is :(... does it have anything to do with having multiple of each card?
 
Has Bohemia even said how the community will migrate for standalone and Arma III?

Seems like a risky purchase right now, we don't even know how standalone will be priced. It would be nice if they gave a discount to everyone who owns Arma II but they can probably get away with charging $50 for it.

Is the store broken for anyone else? I try clicking on one of the dailies and they just rearrange themselves.

edit: seems to be Fallout that's broken.

So guys is Tomb Raider really, really worth it, as in, "I'm not gonna eat this week but at least I have Tomb Raider"-good?
If a $10-13 game is going to cause you not to eat for an entire week i think you need to step back and start to really budget your money.

No game is worth that.

I believe it's been said that it'll be $20-30 for the standalone.

BTW anyone pick up AoEII HD? Thinking bout treating my bro.

Want Kerbal Space Program but don't really see a need to tie it to my steam account, was hoping the dev shop would have a similar discount, think I'll just pay what they're asking.

arma 3 is so so much better than arma 2 from a playability standpoint that i image all tons will migrate over except those guys who only play with the crazy elaborate mods

I'm exaggerating :p still, it's a tough choice, my gf's birthday was last week and that left my July expenses budget pretty damaged.

I thought about it. That game consumed months of my life when the original first came out. Kinda wanted to buy it for nostalgia alone. Do you know if you can play vs other players online in the HD version?

Not risky. Game is in beta, probably will be for the next few months. No way ArmA 2 owners are going to get a discount, since ArmA 3 is a total upgrade and pretty much a totally fresh experience.

They won't "get away" with anything, they'll charge a proper $50 for the game when it is fully released. It was a little over $30 for the alpha, so the price is only going to increase until the finale.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

I'm trying to buy fallout, but it just keeps refreshing the store page. I can click on everything else properly.

It's a glitch, use the search instead.

Incidentally, I'd like to thank I H8 Memes for his assistance with a purchase from the US store.
