Honest question. Why do people care so much about these teams that they are spending a LOT of money to steal, or switch, when the odds of you being one of the random 30 people to get 3 random games for free are so low?

No idea. Don't say anything about it tho, or people will be mean to you.

The feel of gambling.

It's sort of like the lottery. Why do people try to win by buying one ticket when there are people that buy tens of them?

Honestly, I just want the bonus card so I can make an additional 34 cents.

I kinda wish we had a thread for discussion teams/colours, and a thread for discussing sale items.

Is there a consensus gaf choice for this next community vote I should pick...I've lost all the choices I've wanted so far

ARMA!

But I think the combination of Payday 2 and Metal Slug 3 is going to take this one.

 

[Grief.exe]

Vore for Strategy - FPS so Coop wins.

At least fucking Borderlands 2 isn't an option.

I would love to pick up ARMA III, but it is still a bit out of my price range.

Everything looks awful except Metal Slug 3 and Sanctum, and Sanctum is frequently discounted.

STRATEGYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

 

[Haunted]

People are going all-in with those tokens, the point-stealing compared to yesterday is insane (lower bars is the stealing):

Day 1 (24 hours):


Day 2 (9 hours):

Are the lower bars the points the team actively stole or the amount of points that were stolen from the team?

 

[PBalfredo]

How do you get the team tokens and the point boosts/steals? The people selling those seem to be the real winners in this.

 

[Amzin]

Did anyone catch which 4 games were in the 2D puzzler community choice? Someone was asking me and I can't remember.

[astrogamer]

It's kind of insane how much of a lead red and purple have. And I think blue is slowly catching up to green.

Crafting the Summer Sale badge

 

[Ashodin]

Team 2 is the true underdog

 

[Kadin]

At least fucking Borderlands 2 isn't an option.

I was really hoping to avoid seeing that game at all this sale. I'm sure some still want it but man it was everywhere during the holiday sale. Got so sick of seeing it. Now that you mentioned it, you know what that means...

 

[koolaroo]

I would vote for ARMA 3 but 30 dollars is too much for me. 20 dollars is pretty much my limit when it comes to steam purchases and even 20 dollars is pretty rare.

[DaBargainHunta]

Papers Please beta download here. It's a demo of sorts. Not sure how close it is to the final game, but it'll at least give you an idea of what to expect. I'm not quite sure I get the hang of the game - don't know how to tell legit passports from bad ones - but it's fun.

Welcome aboard!

I crafted my one badge for the day, will wait for tomorrow as Team Blue seems to have fallen asleep.

So people with Humble experience...I was going through my Humble account and noticed there were a bunch of games I never redeemed, probably because they were added after I had stopped paying attention.

There were also some games that I never redeemed likely due to already having them. It is safe to say that if the button still says "click to redeem on Steam", I've never looked at the code, and couldn't have possibly given it away already?

I'd like to give the codes away here, but I don't want to run into a situation where I'm giving away keys to games I'd forgotten I'd already given away.

Alright, done!

STRATEGYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

How has the community held up for Natural Selection, would it be an alright game to jump into new?

 

[kutthoat5150]

finally bought risk of rain after many sales of letting it go, next up is the golf club, and maybe a DCS title to quench my sim thirst

Should be safe.
Hell, just put a disclaimer that keys might be taken.

you got my vote.

 

[hitmon]

So is the State of Decay DLC worth picking up? Just deciding whether to get the main game, or get the DLC aswell.

I was thinking about picking up the main game too. Anybody know how difficult this game is?

 

[Xeroblade]

Halo Spartan Wars? anyone got info on this? or should i just pick it up because of the price?

 

[JakkuFurosu]

if you get the golf club add me... Havent played it much yet but been meaning to fix that!

C'mon team red!!

I am so glad they changed the system. The way they have been running it the last few sales has been one of my biggest criticisms.

I would vote for ARMA 3 but 30 dollars is too much for me. 20 dollars is pretty much my limit when it comes to steam purchases and even 20 dollars is pretty rare.

ARMA III has so much replay value you can just about justify the price.

If the next Battlefield game had that kind of mod support I would contemplate buying it. Now it's a $10 purchase at best.

 

[Deadbeat]

There is tutorials to explain everything.

I almost wonder if we need a "Steam Sale Team Competition Discussion" thread so the "is this game worth $X?" stuff doesn't get lost

Did it last night and it worked fine. As long as that 'click to redeem' button hasn't been clicked than the code should still be available.

Its a phone game and feels like a phone game, I enjoyed it, but in only very short bursts 10-15 minutes. If you play it for a hour straight, you will hate it.

also don't spend any more money on the "cheats" its easy to beat without theme.

Team Blue has this shit planned out. Don't worry, we'll be back.

Have you played Shadowrun? Did you like it? Do you want more?
Do you want to play an 80s eastern block bureaucracy simulator? (Meant in the nicest way possible)
