only 4 games left in the giveaway ... grab 'em while they're still available

 

[outunderthestars]

"You have spent approximately $9.85 USD in the store since the sale began."

So far this has been the least damaging Steam Sale I've been a part of.

I have a game or two sitting for "final day," but I'm not even 100% on those.

Where do you see how much you've spent during the sale?

 

[Jeremy]

People posting about the French title of Valiant Hearts lead to me Googling the title and now all my ads are in French.

It's a delicate balance of wanting to entice newer players while simultaneously not making it too easy for banned cheaters to stock up on extra copies.

So now hackers will just get 5 new copies instead of 10? I was so sure of getting CS:GO for 3.74 in the summer sale, but alas. Disappointed.gif.

Still possible to trade for 2 keys through Steamtrades or similar. Probably won't be seeing a price similar for a while.

 

[Kiru]

Yay!

Hmm I realized you gave away a GOG Key. Thanks but I already have the game there. Next time please add GOG to the name. What should I do with it now? :/

Have fun

 

[Chariot]

Yeah, I feel realy bad about that blueteam token I bought.

 

[Dio Brando]

Yeah it's pretty solid, in that they finally replaced the MIDI music that plagued the original PC release. They also added Steam achievements, which are kinda cool.

Its a classic. From what I hear the PC version had butchered music but that was fixed through an official or unofficial patch.

Thanks for the answers. Will wait to see if Double Dragon Neon gets a discount. If not, will buy it. Never finished a FF in my life

So how were people taking advantage outside Russia?

 

[Sendou]

The game is region free.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

Summer 2014 Badge > "How Do I Earn Card Drops?"

You have spent approximately $54.68 USD in the store since the sale began.

Not too bad. Though that doesn't count the money I spent on russian prices.

 

[rainking187]

It looks like I'll happily be eating crow soon, it seems the Thomas Was Alone DLC is finally going to be released on Steam, and for free.

 

[MUnited83]

So how were people taking advantage outside Russia?

Give money/keys to Russia guy, receive game.


Not hard.

 

[Pachimari]

Yes, has one of the better sp campaigns.

What about the multiplayer?

 

[Shadownet]

So how were people taking advantage outside Russia?

They were asking people to denounce democracy for communism instead.

Spoiler

and TF2 keys

 

[Blue Ninja]

On what game?

See if you can raise the deadzone.

I first noticed it during Betrayer, but it has it really bad during CoJ: Gunslinger. Won't keep still.

I'll try recalibrating tomorrow.

 

[Autofokus]

So how were people taking advantage outside Russia?

Trading keys.

Sure, but that's still much better.

WHY can't I get my Dual Shock 4 and Wii controller to work with my computer. I'm going crazy.

I'm honestly surprised Steam threads aren't on community

The good grace of Stump I guess.

Well, I got Valiant Hearts for 2 keys, don't feel bad about that at all. Thanks for the heads up

Do what I do when something isn't working on my pc, when it should - reinstall windows.

Yes, it's drastic, but it always does the trick.

 

[Chariot]

first one, my bad

I think most players moved on to Payday 2, which is arguably the better game. Maybe it will return at end of the sale again, you should get that instead of Payday 1.

.

I wish I'd fail so cute.

Delete System32 folder. Always work. It's like buying a whole new PC. Without the buying part.

[breadtruck]

Oh look, my beloved blue team is last again. Who woulda thunk such a thing could happen.

 

[The_Monk]

Already put around 2 hours in Valiant Hearths and I can see that it's going to be my type of game, amazing, lovely soundtrack too. I had checked every Dev Diary posted on Youtube and I advise those who are curious to do the same.

...Then, out of curiosity, I went to the Buy/Sell thread and it makes me sad why some GAFfers would do such thing like asking a really high price (considering the price at which they got) for this game. As a Community we should always stick together so it's a shame when people do this...

Also, two questions:

1- Should I back-up my saves, regarding Uplay and where can I find them, or is there anything I should worry (I'm not a fan of this service and I worry about loosing my progress).

2- If I take some screenshots but decide only to upload one or two and close the Screenshot window, will they be there for me to upload them in the future? Can I get to that screenshot window again?

Thanks in advance.

 

[scorpscarx]

1) Bioshock Infinite from the Brazilian steam store is 26% more expensive than on the US store.

2) Amazon price matched the 75% discount: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003O6EB70/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Thank you for that, my trader got it for less somewhere, I don't even know atm. Got Infinite finally + Valiant Hearts for 4 keys + 2 summer cards.

 

[denx]

Does SC Blacklist have any DLC? Can't check the Steam store by myself since it's not loading.
