Just checking what you have ives you one of the achievements and a reward.

Did you trade anything recently? That gives another achievement reward.

CrimsonFox · 12-25-2011, 11:23 AM

i basically just hung out on steam, added a bunch of friends from this thread, installed a bunch of games, and chatted with you

Lonnie · 12-25-2011, 11:24 AM

You can scroll through the objectives and ones with open gifts as the icon have been completed.

Freebies are two for clicking on the first objective and then looking at your inventory. Then also trading something with someone as EagleFan said. There are also a few free games that have achievements like Spiral Knights and CrimeCraft GangWars.

EagleFan · 12-25-2011, 11:24 AM

Maybe there's a chatting with EF achievement that I didn't know about....

crap, how do I achieve that....

It was on sale on Amazon recently for about 10 bucks.

EagleFan · 12-25-2011, 11:40 AM

dola: just checked and it's still on sale.

Edit: Sorry, missed it when I first looked.

EagleFan · 12-25-2011, 01:38 PM

As an FYI, the accomplishment for today for Demolition Inc doesn't seem to pop in game. Was getting frustrated trying to get it and not seeing it pop so I signed off to wait a little before trying again and that is when I noticed that I got the accomplishment.

Mizzou B-ball fan · 12-25-2011, 01:39 PM

FM 2012 is 33% off today for those that were looking for a discount.

It was $19.99 on Amazon for a Steam license a couple days ago. I'm surprised Steam didn't at least match that.

FrogMan · 12-25-2011, 03:29 PM

can't get the Steam page to load at all, anybody else having issues with it?

There are two different names on your Steam account.

Your account name can't be changed but you can change the profile name at any time under settings. Would be best to use the account name when posting here because that's the one that can be used to easily add a friend if you're not posting a link to your profile (account names are unique while people can have the same profile name) though it's probably a good idea to let people know what your profile name is too. On that note my profile name is currently Rockin' Ranger for anyone I just added.

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks.

CrimsonFox · 12-26-2011, 04:53 PM

I asked in the other thread as well but I'll ask here too. Anyone have a coupon for Limbo or the INdie bundles? Also how did some of you get free copies of the indie bundles (or did you just buy it and not play it)?

EagleFan · 12-26-2011, 07:45 PM

Steam finally added Half Life 2 to my gift inventory (as I already had it and then was given The Orange Box as an achievement reward). Is anyone interested in it?

So are you going for prize entries or crafting your coal into gifts?

I have 9 coal now, and am debating. I'd hate to get another coupon. I've done 11 achievements now.

I haven't been getting enough coal to even worry about that. I've got 3 coal, have received two games (regifted one and traded the other) and the rest have been coupons.

In as FrogMan. Bought Fallout 3 from yesterday's deal and Bation from today's.

I have some time on my hand over the holiday break and played about two and a half hours of Fallout today. Lots of fun, well made game. My first foray into that type of game.

one of the great things is, you can play any game you want. You can be supergood guy, supervillain or total mercenery neutral and it will accomodate you and give you unique stuff no matter which way you go.

stevew · 12-26-2011, 10:42 PM

I think my PS3 controller can pair with my PC. I'll probably just connect it to my TV if I get annoyed with the small screen.

CrimsonFox · 12-26-2011, 11:12 PM

ah....heh... well I've never really found ghouls to be hard to kill. Maybe early in the game perhaps when I had fewer hitpoints but I think they are oneof the easiest things to encounter.

I'm looking forward to seeing what Valve does with this when they release it.

I'm up to four lumps of coal. At least I've stopped getting coupons.

More of the pain tin the ass factor. Especially when you're a level 20 and just want to grab stuff and not use ammo.
