You mean the whole 14GB ?

I'm currently having trouble launching the game after the 500MB patch. Steam shows the message saying This game is currently unavailable vmad.gif

Erm just asking, how to enter the contest?

Is it add 10 games to wishlist then go into ( eg: today Dungeon Siege 3) page?
*
You need at least 10 games in your wishlist, if you already have 10 games there, then no need to add anymore.

Then yes, you just need to visit the page for the game on promotion shown at the top. Make sure you are log in first if you view it from a web browser, or do it from your Steam software.

the free giveaway is like a scam.. none of us ever got anything.

10 winners out of millions of people. Looking for a winner in LYN community here is silly at best.

If you really want to look for the winners, go to Steam's forum where most of the Steam users are there.

The obvious answer is yes. Really.

You're not a Steam user until you start buying lots games you'll never play, especially during sales. icon_idea.gif

Guys, I bought l4d2 2 days ago and this stupid promo comes out

valve cheated my feelings T_T

*
I guess you are new Steam user. sweat.gif Welcome aboard biggrin.gif

L4D2 is very old now, so this game have been on sales very often, and it will be on sales many times more. Generally, its best to wait for discount during major sales event for old games.

And speaking of sales event, there is one coming up in a week time or two, the traditional xmas mega sale on Steam. So most people won't buy anything during this time of the year, We'll wait for this xmas sales. And you should too. Last year it was a 2 week event, so if its the same, we should see the xmas sales starting on the 19th December, very soon.

Its been kind of hard to find populated servers.

Try searching for servers in Asia with the phrase "gamer" which brings up a whole lot of gamers.sg servers all hosted in sg with low ping, but most of them are empty now. Seems like many players probably not active at the moment or just play those metro 24/7 servers, which is still very popular.

lol Metro 24/7

That kind of defeat the purpose of buying BF3, isn't it?

yeah. Not sure what DICE was thinking. Maybe they wanted to make a map that's unique and never done before in BF. But now people like it too much.

Almost all the Metro 24/7 are populated, but other Conquest server are the opposite, most are empty sad.gif

Taken this a moment ago.

Metro 24/7, only those with low ping

Jamestown is really fun for me. Reminds me of those arcade ones I use to play, and also Xenon2. Although I think its shorter than Xenon2

Yeah, most probably will have xmas activities again, hunting tickets from game achievement to enter the lucky draw contest.


BTW how much budget you guys set aside for this xmas sale?

Need to set aside a budget to control spending sweat.gif

29 days, 21 hours, and 54 minutes... lol.

I should remember to check again in May next year. That will be 2 years since I start using Steam, so I could see on average how many days is spent gaming in a year tongue.gif


Edit:
I notice another stat
Has played 65 games out of 148.

I should be ashame, only played almost half of what I have blush.gif

Hope I'm not late with this, but:
Christmas Sale event achievement list
Steam TreasureHunt Wikia list Can be edited by all, so don't take it for granted (Someone trolled about grand prize being all games on steam)
Games available for discount (Whether Daily Xmas deal or not I'm not certain) Time for me to buy SS3BFE

Ready up your wallets cause steam wants your money.

Thanks for sharing.

Haven't seen that discount list yet.

Yeah, its best to stay away from all these keys related to hacking. Not worth risk our entire account for one game

got a feeling tonight 1.30-2am the xmas sale will start..

It should.
Based on previous year, its a 2 week event and they follow the day of the week rather than a specific date.

I've read many users saying they will not hunt for the achievement anymore this time.

And then Valve hit us with all these crazy grand prize. A gift for all achievement, and grand prize of entire game catalog. How to resist sweat.gif

Apparently the normal coupons don't work until after the sales, lol. Unless you get a golden coupon.
