QUOTE(Deimos Tel`Arin @ Apr 28 2010, 09:27 AM) I actually would like to know that too, I don't have joystick either From what I know of the games the fighting is not super complicated through so maybe keyboard/mouse is enough. It's mainly a Privateer type of game where you are more or less free to do anything you want from commerce, fighting. Looks like lots of management and all. Economy system seems to be very complex, like Eve without the other players input. From what I see the economy/management part of the game is very important and you will spend more time in the menus than in the space simulator side of it. Think I might get it, price is reasonable, just not sure I will get the Gold or just Terran Conflict which is the last one. From comments on some places Terran Conflict is the "culmination" of the serie so far and the previous don't really have stuff that is not inside TC. But its only 5 bucks more.... hum.... decisions... This post has been edited by Gormaz: Apr 28 2010, 11:14 AM |

you have to send a support request to ask them to unlock your credit card. Previously they block me because I keep failing to purchase region lock games. Keep fail as I'm trying to buy US region games using asia region.
QUOTE Hello, Thank you for contacting Steam Support. I have removed the lock on your account; you will be able to make one more purchase. Your account is currently on an alert status due to the excessive failed purchase attempts. Any unsuccessful purchase attempts will cause your account to be locked again. Your account will automatically be removed from the alert list after a while, each time you make a new purchase it will extend the alert period. |

QUOTE(username @ Apr 28 2010, 11:39 AM) No, that's not exactly how I understand the emailThey will locked your account if you try unsuccessfully and multiple times to buy region locked account. It's kind of basic banking procedure really, in case your credit card got stolen and someone try to use it too much online. |

yeap, they will flag your credit card if you attempt unsuccessfully buying region locked stuff (until the workaround method
Not sure why they put "one more purchase", clearly after that I bought a couple of games more with no issues anymore |

if you access normally the website store.steampowered.com or on your steam, you only be able to see those games available in your region. Sometime steam will post up some games with discount, but when you click on it, it will put not available for your region etc.
However if you force the website to load us region or some region, you can buy through that. |
