Gfted1 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Which one did BruceVC take? If XCOM is still available, I'd be interested. Hey, if he doesn't have Xcom still, let me know. I just recently purchased the bundle and already had Xcom. You sir, rock. Bendu said all his are gone so Ill PM you my Steam ID. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Hurlshort Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Those who are just about to play Xcom are in for a huge treat.
Gorgon Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Except for that last alien on the map you cant find that prevents you from ending the mission and possibly from completing the game if its during a base defense. That and the 3 minuite waits between turns while the scripts are doing god knows what will test the patience of anyone. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

Hmm, I did not have any of those issues in my playthrough, most of the time the last alien was exactly where I thought he would be. The load times seemed reasonable as well. My biggest issue were LOS and camera glitches. I assume they've been patched up a bit at this point.
alanschu Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Camera glitches were bad for the game getting confused where your mouse was clicking (and it'd think you were moving to a different floor). Aside from that it was really the only issue that I had.
Gorgon Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 I thought we were talking about the original X com. The reboot is all kinds of awesome. Some tiles were unreachable on alien boarding missions and the tile selection a little buggy with mouseover. The reboot doesn't have base defense sadly. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Malcador Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Wish they'd not bothered with the whole monster spawning system. Getting ambushed by a Muton that suddenly appeared in the middle of my squad wasn't fun Hopefully they've fixed that endless alien turn bug. Cost me two Ironman games that way.

alanschu Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Yeah, dealing with the "scamper" as I called it was a bit frustrating at times, but fortunately I was able to learn to exploit it.
Majek Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 I still have to get used to playing XCOM with mouse and keyboard. Played it on Ps3 and loved it but on pc i just can't get back into it. Even if i don't have to suffer "3rd person cam" and some other console only things. (( 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Gfted1 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Thanks to the generosity of SadExchange, downloading XCOM. Never played any version of this game so Im pretty excited. 1 "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Bendu Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Dungeon Siege 3 and its DLC are on sale. It's worth the 5 Euro.
Drowsy Emperor Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Thanks to the generosity of SadExchange, downloading XCOM. Never played any version of this game so Im pretty excited. I'll bet you'll enjoy it. I also came to the game without any history with the XCOM series.

Blarghagh Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Um, Steam, I appreciate it, but what am I going to do with TWENTY FIVE copies of Dota 2?
Oerwinde Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Can you hand them out? The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Humanoid Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Well the likelihood is that the 25 people you'd think of handing them out to each have 25 codes of their own. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Blarghagh Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 (edited) Not sure why they'd give them to me otherwise. EDIT: Ninja'd! The only people I know who don't have this game already don't have Steam Accounts. Edited June 5, 2013 by TrueNeutral
Gorgon Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I don't have DotA 2. Know a couple of people who are into it. The competitive gaming with huge Cash prizes is a nice touch. Steep learning curve, which is nice, but I'm just not much for diablo type gameplay. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Gfted1 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 I don't have Dota2 either but I don't want to be a free game hog. If you have one left over after everything washes out, I would be interested. I don't have any of the previous Dota's either so if they are required you can eliminate me. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Drowsy Emperor Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Thanks to Bester I tried DOTA2 out but it really wasn't for me. There's very little to do, which is what happens when you cut Warcraft III down to a single hero unit, and the game relies on a lot of memorisation of effective combinations. I imagine its very time consuming to be good at the game, but its just not all that much fun to play.

I don't have any of the previous Dota's either so if they are required you can eliminate me. I don't even have 25 friends and the ones that do have the game already, so out of 25 copies I'm sure I can spare one. PM me an e-mail you want me to send it to and I'll hook you up. That goes for anyone else who would like a free copy of a game that is ridiculously easy to find for free.
Gfted1 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 "Unable to add the gift to your library. The gift may have already been redeemed. Please try again later." Oh well, thanks for trying. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Blarghagh Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Pretty sure you redeemed it, since if I try to send you another copy it says you own the game already. Check your game library.
Gfted1 Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 I redeemed one from SadExchange. No worries though, Im sure Steam balls-ed it up somehow and I really appreciate your generosity. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Blarghagh Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Fair enough. Weird though, because the copy I sent you did get redeemed. Somehow.
