Tagra posted:

I decided to check this out, but I can't seem to make it link to my previously existing Square account. I can log into the account, but it uses my Steam login. Then the game asks for a password, which I can't give it because I used the Steam login. (Typing in the Steam login credentials does not work). But I also can't create a new account because that email is already in use. But when I try to log in just using my Steam account email it says that email is not found, despite being the email that is listed on my Square account. :psyduck:

Thank goodness I started with the trial instead of buying it...

Did you have an existing profile in My Games? After I deleted that, the 'free trial' version allowed me to link it to a Square Enix account.

I've got a quest about a possible scam.

My friend has some valuable CS item hes trading to some VAC banned guy from Yemen. The Yemen guy says my friend needs to give the item to me just to hold it until he can get what hes going to trade. I don't see how this could lead to my friend getting ripped off, but I don't see the point of it either.

Anyone know wtf this is?

If it's so valuable, does he really need to risk dealing with shady people to trade it away?

Nope. And if your piece de resistance is the dreamcasts on their backs, well, that's not a game, that's just a skin.

OG Typing of the dead was great, but doesn't hold a candle to Overkill.

No idea how the scam would work but anything that doesn't involve a one-on-one trade of the good/s one guy wants for the good/s the other guy wants is unnecessary and should be avoided. If the guy has a VAC ban that just raises even more warning bells. I'd tell your friend just to cease communicating with whoever it is.

There's 100% no reason for this to happen, whatever is up it's probably a bad idea.

I ended up just using a different email and starting a fresh account, although it's kind of bizarre that it couldn't just use the Steam login. Nosgoth worked fine...

I hope the free trial transition doesn't crash into the other existing Steam account profile, now :v:

Someone is going to try and impersonate you so your friend trades it away accidentally during the "wtf why are we doing this" step.

  • Supreme Commander Gold
  • Jagged Alliance Gold (the first one, unfortunately)
  • Creeper World 3
  • Planet Stronghold

You should all know how good SupCom is, but Creeper World deserves your attention as well. It's a territory-control game where you create networks of buildings to fight a fluid that flows over the landscape. Watch the trailer to see if it might tickle your plan-build-execute urge, and realize that that's not just contrived high-level play to look impressive, it's actually how the game plays.

Creeper World is amazing and I've been playing it all night

Just so you will all know, I uploaded the demo to IndieDB but then the site said it would take 3-4 DAYS to approve the demo!? (So much for my demo-schedule.) So I figured I'd just release the game, especially considering how well the Lets Play videos did today with no bugs or glitches of any kind. :)

PSA: less then a day left for VC1 unlock. Port looks to be excellent as well.

Here is analysis from Durante of GeDoSaTo fame.
http://www.pcgamer.com/valkyria-chronicles-pc-port-analysis-durantes-verdict/

In short, it runs very well on pretty much anything including Intel hardware. Resolutions are unlocked and framerate goes to 120. Controls are very much customizable.

You all better buy this so we get VC2 HD, VC3 localization, and other stuff from Sega. Really though, VC1 is an excellent game in itself and port comes with all the DLCs.

As a double heads up about VC1, GreenManGaming is having some sort VIP sale, so check your email. It comes to like 13.85, and if you have any credit it can go cheaper.

Look how much of that screen space is taken up with showing the chat and his face. I don't even have to watch long enough to hear him speak to disagree with that.


I get that people who watch streamers seem to want face cams, so that will always be a thing, but there is no way the cam needs to take up that much space, and why does the chat need to waste screen space? Like, is anyone watching the archives going to be sad the chat isn't there?
