[EdwardTivrusky]

Damn, i've been playing a lot on GOG recently so the only game listed for me is Super Neptunia RPG, ha.

I finally got into my wishlist and rearranged some stuff. I bet they won't gift me an Index even though it's #1 on my list. lol.
Can't get anywhere near my wishlist now though. Which country has just woken up?

Edit: Avatar updated, Team Corgi of course! I'm Welsh and also i couldn't betray Ein like that.

 

[Le Pertti]

How do you get 5000 free tokens!?

 

[Spamlynguist]

Grabbed Portal 2 for 0,61 cents because I already owned the original, might get the DLC's I'm missing for XCOM 2 later this week.

 

[kio]

I have no idea how you guys have so many tokens, I started with a measly 2k...

 

[fspm]

Store layout - 3 titles fitting on screen. ok

 

[Guilty of Being]

I just used tokens and was able to get $20 off Dark Souls Remastered. I love it.

Well, I bought an Index for an ungodly amount of money (at least compared to what I usually spend on Steam).
It's nice to get an unexpected ~ €40 in discounts out of it.

40€ discount, hear that Epic?

 

[lashman]

€40 in discounts

Gaben getting desperate ... thanks, Tim!

 

[Le Pertti]

This sale doesn't like me, I have zero tokens and points.T_T

 

[Guilty of Being]

I have spent about $100.

I just used the $20 off from the $5 coupons... Dark Souls is in my account and it still says at the top... "Save up to $20 on your next purchase..."

Bork.

However, I can't checkout because a sale is pending.

 

[Milena]

I don't get this, I had 0 tokens, I boosted a little and now I have 3.950 tokens, but in the shopping cart is asking me if I want to use 15.000 tokens out of the 16.750 that I (apparently?) have.
What is happening?


Oh, and go team

 

[NarohDethan]

Rumor has it that people who have the EGS installed are unable to load the sale.

Spoiler

 

[fantomena]

Still no refund for the games that Steam says are processing and I can't ask for a refund as they don't show up in my purchase history.

Hopefully when I wake up tommorrow it's all clear.

Black Mesa :: Xen Technical Beta

Black Mesa Xen Beta is out. Only includes the first 3 maps.

 

[BO7AMMOOD]

Store layout - 3 titles fitting on screen. ok

Gaben got jelly over EGS's layout. Turns out Steam really did need competition all along. lol

 

[Ex-User (307)]

I still can't consistently load my wishlist lmao

 

[Guilty of Being]

I still can't consistently load my wishlist lmao

I'm having problems again as well.

Yep back to 503 and white lines.

Any time now...

[「Echo」]

I wonder if there is a reason they always let this happen on the first day of big sales? Pretty sure there are ways to mitigate high-traffic outages... but Valve seems content to let day-1 be... like this, every time.

It only hurts them, because it gives me time to reconsider my cart lol.

excuse me?

 

[Guilty of Being]

Grrr... I can't get through this pending order thing. Will I have to contact Steam?

 

[texhnolyze]

Uh, this is the first time that I have no idea what I'm doing in a Steam sale. The site is being so slow only makes it worse.

Sigh.

In my very limited knowledge in networking, there's just so much you can do about literally millions of requests at the same time.

 

[Snakethesniper]

Does anyone know what's the deal with constructor plus?
Regular game is full price, but there's a bundle for less?
In the description:

To thank all our loyal fans we are happy to unveil the Constructor Plus loyalty bundle. This bundle is a special gift to fans of 2017's Constructor HD that allows them to purchase the sequel, Constructor Plus, at a special discount of 50% off the regular price!

We do not recommend purchasing this bundle if you do NOT already own our previous game released in 2017, Constructor HD. Constructor Plus is a stand-alone product which does not require the original Constructor HD to run.

I don't get it? You can buy it for less than the base price of plus? (at least during this sale, since with 50% off I think it's the same?)

4 hours to load a wishlist... unsuccessfully. Ok, that's it. I hear that Borderlands 3 game is very good... and is also made by a very trustworthy fella.

how do i completely nuke an image from the internet

 

[fantomena]

My purchases is finally showing up on purchase history as "pending". Progress at least.

 

[kio]

What's the verdict on Fractured but Whole? What about the dlc, is any of it worth having?

 

[Futaleufu]

My boost points are stuck on zero, despite already buying a game, despite having thousands of games with achievements, despite having hundreds of hours in TF2, I didnt even got the starting 5000 points some of you had. I cant even load my wishlist. This event sucks.

Well said.

 

[BO7AMMOOD]

You gotta give it to Tim and Sergey though. Can't waste a whole night obsessively waiting for a wishlist to load if you can't even have a wishlist

 

[BlackRainbowFT]

Bleh. Volvo regurgitated my purchase.

The transaction's status was labeled as "pending" and I just received a notification stating that I should receive a refund in the coming days.

I had 1000 instead of the 5000 Valve said im supposed to have so I feel you

 

[ZKenir]

[fantomena]

So I cancelled one of the 4 games that was still pending(couldn't find a way to cancel them all) and now the other 3 is not appearing in my purchase history, but are in my library.

Steam is fucked.

 

[MJunioR]

Got my refund, again, exactly one hour after the last one. Now I'm afraid of purchasing again and being locked for another 55 minutes. Maybe I should wait for the weekly maintenance later today to then try purchasing something again.

 

[Guilty of Being]

So, I got a refund for $3.99 for Dark Souls Remastered but I don't have my $20 back in coupons...

 

[Deleted member 113]

I'm back, and... I really don't get the damn event.

Lets just say I couldn't care less about whatever team wins, because lets face it, the chance of winning a game is pretty my 0.
How can one get the most coins/points per day, to redeem as discounts/items on the store?

I believe on this event, you don't get anything daily (clicking on discovery lists, ...), right?
So, I have a few games that I have completed achievements, I can click to get points, and then I have to boost them, until I reach zero.
Is that it?

 

[BlackRainbowFT]

No wait, don't tell me... this is a screenshot of the next Carmageddon.

Am I right?

 

[Stevey]

Yeah the event seems pretty dumb.

At least I got a few new emotes and a badge out of it.

 

[Deleted member 113]

Everyone has over 15000 points?

I still haven't purchased anything, but after boosting my points to zero, and redeeming the achievements that appears, I have 13.791 tokens, so not enough for a single discount.

Am I missing anything?

 

[lashman]

Yeah the event seems pretty dumb.

At least I got a few new emotes and a badge out of it.

all those emotes are in here as well

 

[MJunioR]

Starbound already got a mod to get points in the Grand Prix, apparently there's also a way to spam something in Stardew Valley to get points, too. Of course, the usefulness of those depends on how many points you have left on your speedometer.

 

[fantomena]

Seems like things are fixed as I managed to purchase 3 other games (otherwise Steam would have said I had to wait as some other purchases were pendign), but Im gonna wait until tommorrow just in case. Guess Steam needs some hours to chill down.
