I have spent probably around 8 hours in it so far and never had a crash. Maybe you actually found the ultimate death in this space roguelike.

I am not one to voice when something shocks me but damn, I was on a roll.

Happened right after a jump when the new area came into view.

 

[Mavromatis]

Everyone get Mount and Blade Warband and install Floris modpack.

Are the humblebundle games compatible with controllers?

Steam keys. So check the individual game pages there.

Shank 2, Cave Story, Dung Defenders, Offspring Fling and Snapshot support controllers, not sure about the others.

That sucks. My last death I was on a roll too, I had a full crew, two expansions to suck in more scrap than I had seen in any of my old runs, and I had pimped out my ship, "The Space Flea". But I forgot to upgrade my doors, and I had jumped into a nebula and almost ran into a Mantis ship that warned me off before the game gave me the option to fight them, which I decided on a whim to do. Worst whim ever. It had the most hardcore mantis invaders I have seen yet, and SIX of them teleported into my ship in what seemed like 10 seconds. I had a Rockman and a Mantis, but the rest were Engis and one lone human Captain. My now ever present Captain Starlington McCrunches. Who the game always promptly renames to "McCrunc". They slaughtered my entire crew, despite my fighting them in the sickbay, and then they left my stalwart Captain alone in the pilot's section as they rampaged through my entire ship, destroying each section as they went. As they were finally slaughtering my brave Captain as he futilely tried to fight them with his soft never having fought fists of softness, their own ship took the initiative and fired a full broadside into my ship, ending us all.

I just like how the game pulled no punches. Everyone was meaty Space Fodder in the bug eyes of the Mantis once they were on an enemy ship. I bet one of those who died was the mate of the bug Captain, a lovely thing who had borne him many a hatchling and who loved to chitter away at home, clacking her mandibles in that old familiar lovable way. But this is the Dark Reaches of Space, and he is a Mantis warrior, and he struck without mercy...as she chittered away onboard in appreciative approval.

Ahh. Stories from Space.

if CoD wins fuck everything. i want some quake

edit - fuck yeah

 

[Fireblend]

Long shot: I've got a Closure key (from the Humble Bundle) that I'd like to trade for English Country Tune (currently $1.24 on Steam). Would anyone be up for that? If not, I'll most likely give away the key tomorrow in this thread if anyone's interested add me as a friend on Steam (id: Fireblend).

 

[The Grim Heaper]

awwww yeah quake wins the poll

 

[GK86]

awwww yeah quake wins the poll

Ugh.

 

[Semblance]

Best game won.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Yea, Quake takes it!

 

[brandonh83]

Holy crap!

 

[Yoshichan]

WOW I can't believe Quake actually won against MW!

 

[buhdeh]

Orcs must die 2 is so fun. I didn't really like the first one, but as with everything, co-op makes it so good. Well worth the 3 bucks or whatever it is.

 

[Kerub]

Yay quake

 

[TheChits]

WOW I can't believe Quake actually won against MW!

the steam community needed redemption. They did good this day

 

[ta9qi]

Always wait until the final lot of deals are up before purchasing any stragglers. The sale still has a few days left yet.

 

[cicero]

Who actually still doesn't own Quake?! I think that was my first big purchase from Steam way back in 2008.

 

[dreamfall]

Garry Approves! It's a nice nod to the Old School Shooter of Yesteryear when games had SOUL!

Modern Warfare is great, but this was a fun win. Community REDEEMED. Ever so slightly!

I don't. Never played it, so it's a good time to start.

This. This is why FTL is fantastic....and makes me rage at the same time

I've never played Quake or Doom.

I wish you luck, but considering that buying the Humble Bundle right now for a dollar gives you a Closure key, it's actually 0.24 cheaper to get it from there, and it also gives you 3 other games plus the Indie Game: The Movie.

Still, hopefully you can find someone with a spare copy of ECT to help you.

Orcs must die 2 is so fun. I didn't really like the first one, but as with everything, co-op makes it so good. Well worth the 3 bucks or whatever it is.

Wanna play some co-op right now? I bought the franchise pack earlier today.

 

[brandonh83]

Damn I didn't know about that pure insanity GTA bundle for $12 until now and I'm short $2 in Steam credit. Ah well hopefully the Quake deals will be good.

 

[x3r0123]

so uhmmm are we going to get another thread due to 20k posts or is that just for ots

It's $9.36 here in South America, guess Rockstar likes us more

I was hoping they piggybacked IV into any sweeter deal.

 

[I H8 Memes]

so uhmmm are we going to get another thread due to 20k posts or is that just for ots

Wow I hadnt even noticed there were already this many posts.

New thread probably. Letting them go over 20k causes problems.

 

[toddhunter]

so uhmmm are we going to get another thread due to 20k posts or is that just for ots

Based on these steam sales we should all just go back to the first post and start reading again. Will save time.

 

[Semblance]

I've never played Quake or Doom.

koro pls

 

[brandonh83]

Rub it in.

 

[Polishin8r]

koro pls

I never played these games either brofist
...what happens if we go over 20K posts???

 

[Koroviev]

koro pls

im srs

 

[HungOverOnATues]

WOW I can't believe Quake actually won against MW!

Everyone on Steam already owns it.

Then again, with all of the iD packs in the past you'd think the same of Quake unless a bunch of people really want Quake 4 to complete their collection.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

I've never played Quake or Doom.

how is this possible koro

there's some weird ass shit going on here on gaf today

 

[Semblance]

I never played these games either brofist

I am dead.

RIP Sem.

im srs

ahmygawd

 

[Derrick01]

It's a shame rome total war didn't win. People should be playing that in preparation for 2 next year which will likely be the best strategy game of the year.

 

[RionaaM]

Rub it in.

I really shouldn't (both my wallet and backlog are going to hate me), but do you want me to buy it for you? You can then gift me a couple of games that total the same amount, that way you save those 2.64 bucks.

Based on these steam sales we should all just go back to the first post and start reading again. Will save time.

Congratulations, you made Garry cry.

 

[Omega]

i dont own any of the Quakes..then again I've been a console gamer this whole time.

 

[Tizoc]

Civilization sale is interesting, but I'll wait til tomorrow and see if I can get the 2K Strategy Bundle for $20 or $15 if I can discount it with a coupon.

no, it isn't a big deal-- although I appreciate the super kind gesture.

 

[dreamer3kx]

Two codes:

Shank 2

Indie Game: The movie

Which do you want, first gets one.

 

[BFIB]

Picked up the expansions for Civ V, still debating on Far Cry 3.

 

[GAMERG0D]

Never played Quake and I only have $3.50 left, should I bite?

 

[infinityBCRT]

Red Faction Guerrilla has been pulled from sale since the Steam Winter sale started. However I just found out you can get it from Green Man Gaming. I got it for $4.20 with the 30% off code GMG30-DPLIM-DN831 (saw this over at the steam community forums).

I was just watching the Tiny & Big quick look from Giant Bomb which reminded me of RFG a ton and just made me want to play it again

 

[GK86]

Same. And I have no interest in playing it.

Shank 2?
