You get the opportunity to buy them at the start of each game. They cost, I believe, 100 badge points each.
After you leave a room, be it at the end of each day or at any time during the day, the maximum level you reached in that room is converted to a certain amount of badge points, which you get to spend in the next room you join. You can purchase wormholes then.
The better your max. level, the more badge points you get. That's why as soon as wormholes are exhausted in a room, everyone leaves to get way more badge points than they started with and join a new room and repeat.
yah , i noticed that
but when you start you only have 96 points
and you have to use them all to start the game

YOU have 96 points. Other people have several thousand if not more.
Wormholes are the key.
Wormholes allow you to skip 10 levels when played on the level -00 boss. With people stacking 1000+ wormholes through c/d reduction and other items, you can skip 10,000+ levels at once.
How do I wormhole?

Only purchase so far is The Talos Principle.
I'm hoping Dirt Rally goes on as a daily, only other thing I really want.

There was a Dirt franchise sale and it was only 25% off which is the current discount so it's not happening.

There was? Dang. Hm, not sure if I want to buy it at $29 (CAD). Might just play other stuff in the meantime and get to it later.
You dont. You use steamdb/wchill's script and it coordinates the wormhole use.
And you need to join a room where everyone is using those scripts. Because if people kill bosses (like in regular rooms) it totally messes up this strategy.
As a side note, running 3rd party scripts like these is a security problem ,so you are doing it at your own risk.
You are basically allowing the script to do whatever it wants while being logged in as you on steam. (This has nothing to do with the security issue in wchill's scriptthat was fixed)

Damn, I wanted to download ARMA 3 over night but when I woke up this morning I saw that I downloaded ARMA 2 instead.
Whoops. Try again tonight.

Grabbing Rainbow Six Vegas 2.
Spent a crapton of time playing Terrorist Hunt on the 360 version, hopefully I can find a group on PC.
Thinking about Ghost Recon Future Soldier as well, but there are a lot of reviews complaining about the quality of the port and multiplayer not working.
Couldn't care less about competitive MP, but lack of coop would suck.
Also I could have sworn Streets of Fury EX was going to release today.
Next week...sadface.

The wormhole ability allows you to skip levels (stackable, and can jump 10 levels at a x00 boss) so that's where you're seeing the big level jumps.

i need a valdis story daily, i need it.
No it's not. First of all it's a co-op game. You can't lose against humans. There are also multiple difficulties for every skill and experience type. Then it's a lot of RNG with grinding, but no DLC will take that ever away from you.
You have my sword.
Bad day this time in the game. Only reached level 280. Couldn't scrap together enough money to be effective and ran out of items. Sucked.
I resisted buying Final Fantasy 7 ... I know I won't have time to play it right now, and I'm sure it'll go on sale again in the future.

If anyone is interested, the £20 steam wallet code is back in stock at CDKeys. Works out at just over £18. Just in time for the last few days of the sale, God help me.
Pretty sure it's already been on sale so that smell you noticed might be because you have been dead a few days and not realised.
Crusader Kings was, but I think EU IV only had the normal sale price. Plus, if it was an extra sale price, it sucked stinky stuff. I was really looking forward to cheap DLC and getting friends to buy the game.
Yeah i was just looking back through my purchases and saw it must have been CKII. Though in fairness EUIV must have been on sale shortly before the summer sale as I see some DLC purchase.
Yep, it was just CK2 earlier. Hearts of Iron 3 has been on sale through the mini game tie in, so it's likely we'll see an EU4 deal shortly.

I'm tempted to grab Never Alone for $6, but wary because it's apparently a 2-hour game with no replayability. Thoughts from anyone who has played it?
Do you or anyone else have an opinion on which game is better between rainbows six Vegas 1 or 2? Feel like getting only one and want the better since gel player game content as I assume mp is completely dead.
same here. About to hit level 2000 and I'm just like, "ok"

wtf is up with the mini game? Started at 5.08pm now 5.17, and we are at level 1400. Each round is like 2 seconds max.
Larry Monte has a pretty decent tutorial style series on the game. It has a lot of moving parts, but you can pretty much let AI run most of them and get into it one system at a time.
I don't know - I'm not feeling any of the mechanics yet. Maybe when it scales up things will become more interesting, but the core stuff hasn't sold me.

Just started Hyperdimension Neptunia. The game seems fun so far, but two questions:
Is there a preferred keyboard setup, because damn, space/enter/R-Ctrl/backspace is a bit crazy. I was thinking z/x/a/s but am not sure if they're used for anything...
Also, is there a toggle for the camera controls? When I hit left for the camera, it appears to go right to me. I know I could switch them manually, but I'm always worried that could screw something else up in another situation.
