I am staying the fuck away from opening steam until this sale ends. I have like 1200 games ive barely played. No way in hell. Maybe the Christmas sale ill go nuts. But yeah staying far away. Pls baby jesus dont let me get drunk and accidentally open steam.

 

[jediyoshi]

Valve completely fucked up this mini-game. You try to buy something it takes the money, but nothing buys.. but if you reload.. moneys back.

Well done Valve.. well done..

I'm sure it'll be fixed 10 days from now.

But what if it's par for the course!

 

[Vamphuntr]

It's like no one reads the faqs and rules

Play the Monster Summer Game
If you’re Steam Level 5 and above, you’ll get a Summer Sale trading card at random intervals while playing, up to three per 24-hour period. (If you reach Steam Level 5 before the end of the sale, you’ll be granted the cards you earned by playing the Monster Summer Game).

 

[idlewild_]

Steam client can't connect to servers, lol. Ah well, should probably stop checking that clicker game every few minutes anyways.

 

[topplehat]

This sale is weird, can't get a game started. I know we say this every time.......but the sales aren't that good.

 

[Metroidvania]

I can't even start a new game of the minigame?

You entered this thread so it's already too late. You can't escape steam sale.

 

[Mithos]

Are you sure one wasn't from just buying things?

I have not bought anything.

 

[Grief.exe]

next flash sales are at 12am midnight
next dailys are 12pm the next day
repeat for the next 10 days

Not everyone lives in your timezone.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

I think they're fixing the minigame

or something

 

[Caerith]

It's like no one reads the faqs and rules

Oh I saw that, but I was wondering why 1 earned + 1 remaining = 3.

I can't even start a new game of the minigame?

Community's down.

 

[Mithos]

Community's down.

Yeah got booted out from steam again (logged out)

 

[Metroidvania]

Community's down.

Everything's down now, it seems.

Hopefully shit gets fixed.

 

[imjust1n]

I'm at the point now where I've bought basically what I wanted on steam and every sale I'm like meh it's mostly indie games that I never got into.

 

[DXLelouch153]

Not everyone lives in your timezone.

thats why god invented timezone converters

 

[Sch1sm]

So next daily sales will update when? EST. 1 pm tomorrow? Yall are going to need to spoon feed my dumbass on my first steam sale.

Dailies change 1 PM EST tomorrow, yeah. The current ones will remain for 24 hours beyond that, though. Flash sale is every 12 hours. So for Eastern, it's 1 AM and 1 PM that sales rotate.

I think they're fixing the minigame

or something

How do they even mess up something so simple.

 

[Icelandic_Jazz]

Haha this is worse than usual. They should steal some of Nintendo's stability updates.

 

[Arksy]

Steam seems to be down.

 

[Taco_Human]

STEAM offline, booooo.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

thats why god invented timezone converters

uhh

so how is anyone supposed to know what timezone you're even in?

 

[Grief.exe]

thats why god invented timezone converters

I guess you can calculate back if are aware that Valve's timezone is Pacific, but your statement would imply the person is not aware of that timezone.

You did not list one, making it impossible for someone to ascertain your meaning.

 

[CreepingFear]

My shopping cart crashed. It said I wasn't logged in. Steam servers am fucked.

 

[inm8num2]

Hm, can't sign in at the moment. Tried restarting Steam and can't connect to the network.

Who will kill the monsters in my place??

 

[Poodlestrike]

Hmm. Anyone else having trouble connecting? Was downloading todays haul, the connection drops, and when I restart the client I keep getting a "could not connect to the Steam network" error.

Guess that answers that

 

[Linearskillz]

Almost 7 hours later and they're still having trouble? C'mon Valve this ain't your first rodeo.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Doing this monster game for the first time...

 

[TheSeks]

You Only Steam Once

Says you. I steam nightly. ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[Mutagenic]

Gray Matter and Gabriel Knight remaster are good prices, but will continue to wait.

 

[Justinh]

Doing this monster game for the first time...

It juust started working for me again after crapping itself. Can finally try to get this boss down. I'd prefer it if they just went back to community voting every 8 hours, to be honest.

It appears the monsters won and destroyed the servers!

Game over.

 

[Sal Ami]

I guess I will try this metagame again during my lunch break tonight. Does not work now, it might work then.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

Is Deponia any good? That $1 price is calling out my name http://store.steampowered.com/app/214340/?snr=1_239_860__1305

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Can't log in to any games.

And no flash sale? Games or money are the only way to get a badge?

 

[JSoup]

It's not horrible, but it's long and the jokes have a habit of not landing, due to a clunky translation. Worth it for a buck.

 

[Vyse24]

Steam is back up and the game is running smoothly. Although that just may be from people not signing back in yet.

 

[PinkCrayon]

Got all my upgrades reset, great.

 

[inm8num2]

The main character gets on some people's nerves, but the puzzles and gameplay are really good (if slightly obtuse at times).

If you like that old school funky adventure game logic, you'll probably like Deponia.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Yep, lost all progress 0 level 0 gold. Nice.

Some people are really into it. I saw a Quick Look of it and the voice acting is, to my ears, terrible.

[Kid Ska]

Just went through my first Ziggurat run. That game is pretty sweet, but dodging is a real pain in the ass.

 

[mdsfx]

STEAM: "We have some great games for sale. Please buy some."
ME: "Great! I have $20 in my wallet and I'm ready to buy some!"
ME: "It's not working. I can't add anything to my cart."
STEAM: "We have some great games for sale. Please buy some."
ME" I can't! I'm trying! What's the problem?!"
STEAM: "We have some great games for sale. Please buy some."
ME: "Oh my god JUST TAKE MY MONEY ALREADY."
STEAM: "We have some great games for sale. Please buy some."
STEAM: "We have some great games for sale. Please buy some."

[iGeodude]

What is up with the Steam Cookie Clicker game? Can we please go back to voting? My fingers are hurting.

 

[bede-x]

Will there be a hidden deals thread or something to highlight good games that are really cheap? Or is this the thread for that?

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Honestly, at this point I would rather have just had the constant voting.

 

[Exuro]

I can't even join the minigame

Thanks for the quick responses all! Ya, I am a fan of some old school adventure games, so it looks like something that may be up my alley.

I just watched a video on Youtube. Concerned I may get annoyed with the voices as you all mentioned .

Looks like something I could play for a buck however. Off to my cart it goes

1. Buy/upgrade the automatic attack skill.
2. Profit.

I enjoyed it despite the translation missing a bit. If you're down for a P&C, Deponia won't do you wrong.
