Waiting and waiting and waiting. My sale budget is really tight, like less than twenty bucks. Tomb Raider and Dishonored goty are prime wants. Waiting for the dailies...

Should be at least $5 for each of those come the dailies, I think Tomb Raider was $3.99 last year?

Hmmm it keeps giving me an error when I try to play the Monster game.

Also having the same issue apparently you can connect to the game through a friend but they have to be within 10 levels of you. Unfortunately my friends are all way above level 10.

So are there any Kind Gaffers sub level 10 Gaffers out there that would be willing to help us?

This minigame is so busted. Why am I on some kind of team that has raced way ahead, making my contributions useless? Since I haven't been actively playing until today, I missed the early game where your clicks actually matter (I presume you could kill enemies with like 3 clicks on level 1 like in any other clicker game) and now enemies have billions of HP and my clicks do 900 damage and playing it feels utterly pointless since I'm behind the curve in every aspect due to not maximizing my gold in the early game. Why is it team-based?! Maybe Valve shouldn't make games anymore.

Its better to start a new game after a while...if you can.
Wait, that's exactly what I want! Where's that button? The "close game" button says the game will keep going...

I thought it said you can only get 3 cards per day from playing.

So, I got a card and I've never played the clicky game.

I can't even play a game - says it's unavailable and to try again later. I sold it for 17 cents so I considered that a win

EuroGaf: Did I miss something with GTA V? None of the purchase offers are under 55€ which is hardly a sale if you don't want the Max Payne reboot :---/

You can't get GTA V for any lower. They are bundling shark cards/max payne/gta games in with it to make up the price.

US GAF - man, I want Dyling Light to see a substantial discount. Would be a great thing to keep me busy inbetween The Witcher 3 and Batman (both of which I got for free with my 980).

I'm not really sure what the best way to approach the game is. Clicking like mad makes my hand numb. I'm at level 64, too and it's so slow right now.
 
3-4?

Its better to start a new game after a while...if you can. It's like clicker heroes in a lame way, you get some strong one time buffs when you start over. Make sure you do a fresh game though don't join a friend.

The rules also say that when the day ends, everything resets - including your stats. You start with buffs, if I understand correctly, based on the level you finished at last as well as your Summer card ranking - or was it your overall Steam level?

If so, perhaps resetting is not a wise move to be better prepared for the next day's game?

edit: nevermind!
The amount of badge points you get is based on the maximum boss level you’ve completed in the game on any previous day, plus the level of your Steam Summer Sale badge.

What does the Summer Sale badge and Monster Game badge get me?
Each level of your Summer Sale badge and each 10 levels of your Monster Game badge will get you a special Badge Point to spend when you start a Monster Summer Game. These points can be used to buy special abilities to help you and your team.

My friend's games are all level 60-75 and it won't let you join 10+ levels above you <.<

I expect that's part of why the game's screwing up for everyone, it assumes that everyone starts and moves together. I'd expect better design from Valve.

I know the rules about sales...but Gemini Rue cant possibly get any cheaper... can it?

I'm in the same boat with Deadly Premonition (90% of @ £1.99) and Earth Defense Force (66% off @ £3.05). I can't believe I'm quibbling over further savings on two games for a fiver. Deadly Premonition can't get any cheaper without them paying me to take it.

These sales really fuck with my perception of value. Screw it, I'm buying those two.

97 now and takes like 20mins to beat a round, its just a slow grind and luck of other people using items

I hope BLADESTORM: Nightmare goes on sale, I mean its cheaper to buy at retail on ps4 and xbone then on steam.
