Nop

Thanks.

Oh, come on team blue, I go to sleep and look at you but I know we can recover

 

[Zeliard]

I think team purple is getting their hands dirty to get that many points.

Let's all laugh when Purp gets DQd for shenanigans.

 

[runnin_blue]

Its in the daily so I don't think it will get lower than that

Yeah I know but I'm debating whether I should wait for a future sale or not.

I want to play it but not uncontrollably so.

 

[syko de4d]

The cheapest single point is about 60-70 cents, of which 5% goes to Valve.
A summer badge is about 5$
Summer foil badge is 40$

But the cards get generated when people buy games, or? One Badge is 10 cards and generate 10 points for your team. So the 1.25million points should be around 1.25million cards. Right now there cant be cards generated with Votes, because there were only two votes till now. The only other way to generate new cards beside spending money is to create a badge. But badges cant be responsible for more than around 10% of the cards and there should be alot of generated cards that are not transformed in points right now (maybe even the most cards are at that state). 1 Card = $10, 1.25million cards = $12.5 million and maybe way more because of the unused cards.

But maybe i overlook something in this system

 

[kudoboi]

If one team is winning everyone will join that team. How does this not continue every day?

The teams are assigned at random

 

[Brites]

IS there a way to know which games i havent collected cards from?

 

[KevMan1815]

Ok, I really want to get into Witcher. Is getting Witcher 2 going to bring me up to speed for Witcher 3?

As much as I enjoyed the story in the original Witcher, I think you could easily play through Witcher 2 and be up to speed for Witcher 3. If you are able though, I'd play both!

 

[Hero Prinny]

Wow surprised I ended up buying a game during the sale, haven't picked anything up in it for the past two years(I got Naruto). Does anyone know if Amazon is starting their summer sale anytime soon? they normally have it around the same time as Steam does if I recall correctly, they tend to have the better offers lately. But I do admit that while not much has interested me in the first day, the deals have improved over last years thats for sure.

 

[Seanspeed]

First one has a lot of important story setup stuff.

You can just read about it somewhere, I'm sure.

Or obviously play the two games! First one is one sale super cheap as well.

 

[KenOD]

The teams are assigned at random

One can buy or unlock via crafting, an item that will change teams however. Which some are doing by looks of it on Steam Forums.

IS there a way to know which games i havent collected cards from?

Simply go to your Badges page and those that still have cards to drop will indicate so. At least they do with Enhanced Steam installed.

PURPS ARE PERPS

 

[Chindogg]

Yeah they exploded out of nowhere. I'm calling bullshit.

 

[Ambition]

You guys should check this game out.

Install Enhanced Steam, visit this page, and then click "Sort by drop value".

You can buy Tokens to jump teams, or get them by crafting summer badges.

[Absoludacrous]

Spent all day mulling it over, and I think Original Sin broke me. About to spend wayyyy more than I intended during this sale.

 

[InfiniteNine]

We're 100% legit you guys just don't know how to win. <3

Looks neat for two bucks fifty.

 

[oipic]

Meanwhile there is much laughter and frivolity at Valve HQ as they arbitrarily raise and lower the scores for each team, and much rejoicing ensues as they watch the market respond accordingly.

Valve are remarkably good puppet masters with an acute understanding of the market and their customers. Well played.

 

[Heysoos]

Is that Naruto game worth it for just the single player?

 

[CountAntonius]

Boo I'm green. Hate that color.

 

[crazyrabbits]

We're 100% legit you guys just don't know how to win. <3

I wouldn't be surprised if your team has the user who crafts dozens of badges each year (and spend a good $1-2 k on both standard and foil seasonal badges). Saw the same thing happen in the winter sale, although the user did only did it at the very end when prices tanked.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

I have a friend in South Africa who wanst to play the free weekend of of TitanFall but the game doesn't show in his store. How can he do that?

$30... damn. I wish I would have gotten one of those instead of the lame wallpapers.

 

[Jason Frost]

This sums up my day ...

I Hope #TeamPink is proud of me : )

Thank you!

 

[SargerusBR]

Man i would love to see Batman Arkham trilogy games for less than $10

 

[Sendero]

Wait. The game will be added to the different geographies in the next hours. That's what the text says, anyway.

 

[NingenJanai]

Man i would love to see Batman Arkham trilogy games for less than $10

Asylum and City will definitely be, Origins maybe.

 

[Shackzam]

Riot against the underhanded purps for their cheating ways.

 

[bobnowhere]

Went through all the purchases on the activity feed, does anyone have issues with rating up certain people constantly? It always seems to fail on certain people for me, well known steamGAF'ers like Fantomena and Knurek especially.

 

[Mollywhopping]

It wouldn't hurt, but the devs have said they intend for Witcher 3 to make a great starting point for people completely new to the series, so you should be okay jumping straight into it.

You should still play them however because they're great games.

That's all I needed to hear. Buying them now, thanks.

30 bucks for traitor tokens huh...

Is that Naruto game worth it for just the single player?

Sure, i heard the story mode is pretty long.

 

[KevMan1815]

Asylum and City will definitely be, Origins maybe.

Origins has been under $10 from other sources, so it is very possible I would say.

 

[Rhaknar]

you will, this was day 1 of 12

I have a substance that turns purple people into Jelly Babies. I could use it but... do I have the right?

There's no English text in the game?

Lol and this is how a team wins, sorry my Pink brethren but I'll be useless this sale.

 

[Ambition]

VA is Japanese with English subs.

 

[GlenChivas]

Origins has been under $10 from other sources, so it is very possible I would say.

I almost bit on Origins during the Humble Bundle sale a few weeks ago. Only thing stopping me is the fact that I know as soon as I do a Ultimate or GOTY version will get announced.

 

[Chance Hale]

I had forgotten I will have to clear dozens if not hundreds of badge emails now ;-;

 

[runnin_blue]

Man i would love to see Batman Arkham trilogy games for less than $10

I've bought them all for under $10 each from Green Man Gaming over the last 6 months. You should keep an eye on them as well as Steam.

 

[Mollywhopping]

Is that Naruto game worth it for just the single player?

Was wondering the same thing.

 

[Casimir]

Hey everyone,

My mic is busted. What is a decent one for playing video games?

 

[KevMan1815]

The exact reason I skipped it as well, actually!

 

[petethepanda]

I got into badges and stuff the last few sales but I'm thinking I should steer clear this time lol, don't want to start spending actual money on the marketplace when trades don't cover everything.

 

[someguyinahat]

VA is Japanese with English subs.

Is she at least tsundere?
