[Infinite Justice]

About a month ago when it was 66% off the current price in a daily deal.

hmm interesting.

Spoiler

wasn't there a 2 week window or something?

 

[raphier]

Wow, rockstar is price-scumming with GTAV. They increased the price to like 76€ and sell it with -25% tag for a price of 57€

 

[AnathemicOne]

Pretty much how it works, yeah



Totally new install, IIRC. You'd have to reinstall everything because it's a different depot/package/etc.

At least it should be, I think.

Oh phooey, was hoping I get an even more discounted price due to having the base game already.

 

[Stumpokapow]

damn my crew just beat blitzkreig, the third boss. ownt!!!!

 

[TheSadRanger]

What about Homeworld Remastered??

I remember some of the impressions from the OT being kind of "ehhhh"

 

[Indignate]

Half minute hero 2 is $2.49
...Dare I wait for it to go for $0.99?

Unless you REALLY want to play it within the next 10 days, just wait.

It'll be that price on the last day of sales and you can just pick it up then if it never goes cheaper.

 

[Mareg]

Anyone else have their Enhanced Steam extension not working ?

I just can't buy anything without it. I need to know if I buy stuff at the right price.

Outlook notification pops up on my work PC

"You are all playing the Steam Monster Summer Game instead of being productive, aren't you...."

 

[CybernatonEvolution]

A crappy sale so far. None of the games on my wishlist have a decent sale, and they main AAA games that are 4+ months old (GTA V is technically more than a year old) are being sold at near full price. No thanks; I have a lot of games that will keep me occupied for a long time. I doubt I would find any of the games that I want on flash sales/daily deal.

 

[SpaceDrake]

Oh phooey, was hoping I get an even more discounted price due to having the base game already.

Ah, no, that's definitely not how it works. It's a new sub/depot, so the base game doesn't factor in at all. If you're angling for just the DLC it might be cheaper to buy them individually, but I don't have time to check ATM

 

[Sblargh]

Chances on Far Cry 4 breaching the 70% mark?

I don't think anyone I work with knows what STEAM is

 

[Uff duh]

What are the chances fallout 3 GOTY gets cheeper than 11.99?

 

[AnathemicOne]

I have, the legendary edition is $24 while each big DLC (Dawnguard and Dragonborn) are $13 each totalling for $26.

 

[cyba89]

This is my first steam sale and I haven't bought anything yet. Am I doing it right?

These are only the first 30 daily/flash deals right now. The will be 501 more so I'm sure you will find something.

 

[Paertan]

I know we should wait for dailies. But with the new refund system in place it is not as important anymore right?

 

[Huevos de Oro]

What are the chances fallout 3 GOTY gets cheeper than 11.99?

Very high

 

[MattyG]

Chances on Far Cry 4 breaching the 70% mark?

66% would be my highest guess.

 

[Krappadizzle]

Any thoughts on Zombie Army Trilogy? It is included as part of the Sniper Elite franchise daily, at 33% off. Wondering if I should pick it up.

Fun to play the co-op/mp with some buddies. Zombie sniping has never been better.

 

[Sblargh]

I don't think anyone I work with knows what STEAM is

Do you work in the past?

 

[88Titan88]

This game is sort of disappointing.
I don't know if it's just here, but the HP numbers and stats take an eternity to refresh.
Also, there could be like a chat for each game room.

 

[Saikyo]

Any tips or guides for tower attack?

 

[DSN2K]

just got double charged on paypal for Game Dev...great game but not 2 x £4:68 valve...

 

[Infinite Justice]

What are the chances fallout 3 GOTY gets cheeper than 11.99?

high imo

its been 7.50 before in a sale and i think it went to 5 bucks in another as well

 

[Resident4t.]

What happens if I've the base game of Skyrim installed but buy the Legendary Edition?

Wouldn't it just add the DLC to your account? It's just a normal base game + DLC bundle from the looks of it. You should just be able to choose what DLC you want to install from your list.

 

[Huevos de Oro]

Do you work in the past?

Even in the past people knew steam. It even powered shit and stuff.

 

[Tizoc]

Unless you REALLY want to play it within the next 10 days, just wait.

It'll be that price on the last day of sales and you can just pick it up then if it never goes cheaper.

BUT WHAT IF IT IS A PRICING ERROR?!

 

[Sblargh]

just got double charged on paypal for Game Dev...great game but not 2 x £4:68 valve...

You reminded of mad games tycoon. It's looking good and 40% off.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

The GTAV pricing is a joke, I guess I won't be buying that this sale.

 

[JaseC]

Yes.

This was my other violation of the wait for daily rule. It also comes with the first one for free if you don't have that already.

Also, why is Cladun X2 not on sale at all .

 

[Infinite Justice]

I have, the legendary edition is $24 while each big DLC (Dawnguard and Dragonborn) are $13 each totalling for $26.

get the full package if you don't have any of it but also wait since its been lower than 24 bucks before (iirc it went to $13)

 

[arts&crafts]

Do you work in the past?

Yes, at a bank.

 

[Jonm1010]

I feel like this particular sale more then others needs a freaking PSA at the top iof every page. WAAAYYYY too many people this time are seemingly lost on how steam sales work in spite of the OP.

 

[Shake Appeal]

Hoping for deeper discounts on: Talos Principle, Dead State, Trails in the Sky, and Dungeon of the Endless.

I could also be convinced to pick up some trashy point and clicks or other half-decent indies at good discounts.

 

[Rich!]

What are the chances of Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin going on sale?

 

[tim.mbp]

Morphopolis is $0.19. 96% discount.

[sprinkles]

anyone beat the second boss in monster summer game? pretty dope looking dude, "Dominic, The Mobile Apocalypse"

Not yet, but I noticed the first boss (Bob) and now Dominic are all on the sale badges. 10 bosses in the Monster Game confirmed?

 

[AnathemicOne]

get the full package but also wait since its been lower than 24 bucks before (iirc it went to $13)

The sale can lower over time the summer sale period lasts? So a sale on the sale itself?

 

[je_ssi e]

Let's hope they don't fuck us with Dark Souls 2 daily sale because right now it's on 50% while the upgrade from DX9 version is only 20% so they both cost the same wich fucking sucks.

That's one of the things I'm going to be waiting for.
Would like a nice discount on the upgrade.

I haven't played the DLC yet and I heard it's good.
Will probably get it last day regardless because a discount is a discount, but hoping for better than 20% off.

Only if for Last Light Redux today.

 

[TheSadRanger]

What are the chances of Dark Souls II Scholar of the First Sin going on sale?

It's already 1/2 off, so I'm guessing maybe 60% for a daily? Dark Souls 1 is still 66% so I would be surprised if 2 goes lower than 60%

 

[bender]

Did Gearbox do right by the Homeworld remasters?

 

[MajorMane]

Reminder that PlayWay's Sim Bundle is still 95%off - 0.99$(possible price mistake)


Worth it over and over for Car Mechanic Simulator 2014 which is legitemately great. You a few simulator duds along with it but Car Mechanic Simulator 2014 for 0.99$ is a great deal.

I bought it.

I'm not even sure I'll like these games.

...

 

[Jag]

Looks like bosses are every 10 levels.

 

[Infinite Justice]

The sale can lower over time the summer sale period lasts? So a sale on the sale itself?

Yes.

If its included as part of a daily deal or a flash sale then its chances for a bigger discount is increased.

Its why everyone says "wait for the dailies" ad nauseum

 

[Tertullian]

YNAB WILL NOT GO ON SALE THIS SUMMER SALE PER THEIR TWITTER WHAT IS THIS BLASPHEMY!?

 

[Respect]

I bought it.

I'm not even sure I'll like these games.

...

My thoughts exactly...guessing it is an error.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Are we expecting Divinity: Original Sin to go half-off?

 

[JaseC]

If I remember correctly, it suffers the same problem that the xb1 version does in longer load times than the PC, but otherwise a very similar experience. The longer load times 'could' be a problem in this type of game, but it just kind of depends on your playstyle and patience level.

Load times weren't an issue even on a 7200rpm HDD. Levels loaded in a matter of seconds.

Edit: Err, sorry, I misread your post and thought you said that the XB1 and PC versions have longer load times than the PS4 version.

 

[JimmyRustler]

lol, some of you guys have no discipline. Those games are not worth 45€. Keeping Steam Sales alive at least.

The only game that cost me more then 10 EUR was AoE Complete. That is 8 games + addons for 45 EUR. I don't see how this is not worth that price.
