    Re: OS Steam and Computer Gaming Thread

    Only thing I've bought so far is Shadow Warrior. I did buy Rebel Galaxy too, but refunded it after an hour since I wasn't a fan of the combat.

    Thinking about picking up Satellite Reign though. Considering Siege also, but I'm still worried about paying $45 for a game that might not have much longevity. It's currently #36 on the Steam player charts which seems extremely low for a game less than a month old.

      The beta hurt them, but the player base has seemed fine. I'll put it this way, Insurgency i've been playing for a long time and its player base is more than active enough and RB6 has almost double the amount of players. 11,000 on today for RB6, while not breaking dota records, that is still plenty of opponents to play.

        Hmm Steam is screwy today. Everything is in Russian when you go to their website.

                  Holy **** Steam is on fire right now.

                  Valve should just shut the servers down until they get it fixed. Major security issues. I'll be keeping an eye on my credit card to make sure nothing is charged.

                      Steam finally pulled their servers down. Took them long enough. Their IT guy going to get their butt chewed out for their Christmas present.

                        The Store and Community sites seem to be working now; however, a lot of users are reporting the inability to login (myself included). I'm honestly surprised Valve hasn't come out with anything "official" about the issue yet. This is making them look worse and worse while giving me more reason to use GOG Galaxy more and more.

                        BTW, any of y'all using GOG Galaxy? I need some friends lol.

                          I know Steam daily and flash sales are a thing of the past, but why are some games getting deeper discounts for 48 hr periods?

                          For example, FM 2016 did not have a discount until today and notice it expires in 39 hrs (from the time of this posting): http://store.steampowered.com/app/37...r2015-featured. Also, South Park Stick of Truth started at 66% off, but went to 75% off yesterday morning...hence it expires 15 hrs from this posting (http://store.steampowered.com/app/213670/).

                          Is that what Valve meant by this sale is "different"? Hidden special deals?

                            Rainbow Six Siege didn't have a discount initially and it got one a few days ago.

                              Steam issues were due to a caching issue and have been resolved. Actual incident lasted less than an hour.
