Drowsy Emperor Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 What I'm annoyed with is Steam's poor download rate. I have a 6mps connection and its almost never the full 600+kb but varies from 300-600. The whole point of an online client is to take advantage of your internet speed (and mine is merely okay) but if it doesn't do half of that most of the time what are they spending the millions on?

Guest Slinky Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 You tried changing the download region server? I've found that I get full speed from some and less from others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leferd Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 XCOM 75% off for the next two hours. Easily the best game of 2012.

Oerwinde Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I've grabbed Expeditions: Conquistador, all the Saints Row 3 DLC, Evoland, Impire, and Farcry: Blood Dragon. There are a few more I've been looking at, but the wallet is tapped. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Katphood Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Man, still no sale on Stalker games. So somewhere in this thread I saw that the cards were maybe worth real money. Are y'all collecting cards for a chance at cash and prizes, or for Steam achievements or "just because?" I confess I don't understand the cards...outside of the fact they seem incentives to buy more games? I am collecting mine to sell them later on once they're rare! There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanschu Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Thanks for all the notes about the "cards." Much clearer. I don't think I'd be personally interested at all, but it's still interesting. I find it fascinating too. The mind of the collector I guess, because for myself the cards could not possibly mean any less for me than they do. I large, LARGE chunk of the people I work with are quite rabid about their card acquisition, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 On a whim, I just picked up Chivalry. I'm interested in seeing what the deal is, hopefully I don't suck too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majek Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 There's still nothing worth buying. I think i'll just give more money to Chris Roberts. :| 1.13 killed off Ja2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oerwinde Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 On a whim, I just picked up Chivalry. I'm interested in seeing what the deal is, hopefully I don't suck too bad. I played it during the free weekend a couple months back. I couldn't figure out how to attack. You would think in a first person combat game it would be left-mouse, but no. I gave up after 15 minutes because it was just terrible. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to kill a few people in my first two fights, so not too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoraptor Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 That's a bit unfair. You could also vote to increase the price of the games on sale as well (seriously, Strike Suit Zero 75% off, vote for it and get... 66% off?) which is worth a bit in unintentional amusement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I also think there are some good specials on the sale, like Dark Souls and BG:EE "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Labadal Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I had two of those, heh. I've bumped up my €/card prices now. I'm now getting a whopping €0.13875 per card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Prison Architect (the game, not the cards ) looks very cool, but it's still too pricey for me at $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyrock Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 And a bunch of the same stuff that's already been on sale multiple times here on the penultimate day. So much for me picking up La Mulana or Of Orcs and Men. Oh well, I've got plenty of stuff in the backlog, I'll just wait for the winter sale, or maybe GOG will hook me up with La Mulana earlier than that.

Oh well, I've got plenty of stuff in the backlog, I'll just wait for the winter sale, or maybe GOG will hook me up with La Mulana earlier than that. The last day of the sale is always a recap day. You know La Mulana and Of Orcs and Men are both on sale right? They have been for the whole sale. They're 50% off right now. They just haven't gone on a daily deal for 75% off or whatever. There are a lot more games on sale than just the daily specials that you see on the main page every day. Take a look.
