More maintenance in 45 minutes according to Steam support twitter.

 

[morningbus]

It is my theory that JaseC is actually a she, specifically Saoirse herself, and all the avatar changes are merely the well-planned and plotted out guerrilla marketing campaign that took on a life of its own. Those BAFTA Award nominations don't just happen on their own...

That's ridiculous. The only girl that posts in here is Salsashark.

How am I supposed to get the 82 Brutal Legend card drops with Steam being dumb like this? I wish there was a monthly subscription or something so Steam couldn't suck this bad.

UPDATE: The reports of #Steam maintenance being finished were exaggerated. We'll be starting a second round in 45 minutes.

I never had any problems with the performance. I remember it being really smooth.

Must be nice having access to a NASA super computer.

Don't post new Market listings until then because they won't show up.

Edit: Check that, it's been fixed.

The CoH2 open beta was counting down in hours yesterday, now it's back to saying 5 days left? What?

 

[jaundicejuice]

If Tomb Raider 2013 didn't auto-save your progress. I wouldn't have made any and likely uninstalled the game. Since I cannot find any solution online--updating my drivers, playing with the settings--and no one seems to be offering any, I think the interim solution shall be to quit out after every major cutscene, exit to desktop and relaunch the game.

JaseC has an unfair advantage being Australian:

1) He racks up the scoreboard while everyone else is sleeping.

2) Australia has creatures that evolved with the express purpose of killing humans, so he stays in-doors.

Makes sense

Random 300MB update for Sid Meier's Railroads!...I hate unexplained updates for defunct games.

So I guess I'm not going to be getting any cards while Steam is being resuscitated.

Woot, made the hall of shame this time. My body is ready. If the the summer sale is anything like the last sale, don't put your money in the steam wallet.

Just needs more card sales.

I think I'm going to move my lettering to the left like this one, rather then centered. I also am going to use a higher resolution render of the background so it looks better, as well as add in the other Steam threads.

What a fantastic little game Thomas Was Alone is. I encourage you all to check it out, since most of you have it from the last humble bundle.

I might throw it in at the end of June to meet my quota for this thread http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=573369

Very underrated game. Scales very nicely and keeps things pretty new. Best use of narration after Bastion.

Oh why did you put Civ 5 on that list?

 

[Grief.exe]

Cause I wasn't feeling Just Cause 2.

The game looks and plays nice, but the repetitive and uninspired mission design really brought the whole experience down. I'm not going to play 12 more hours if I'm not having fun.

Picked up Civilization V for $5 off of GMG and you know I've been addicted. I'll probably just call it 'beat' by the end of the month, I've almost achieved two victory conditions so far. Judging by the achievements, its not a game you can ever really beat though.

New Game/DLC count and badge up

Game ownership badge went live in the downtime

 

[Rickenslacker]

The great DLC culling has occurred. My profile game count dropped by 205.

 

[HoosTrax]

New Game/DLC count and badge up

I was level 25 before. Now I'm level 27 with 475 games.

That's kind of horrible now that I think about it. It means half of my "games" were really DLC.

<-- part of the problem

 

[Herpes Reasons]

When is the summer sale?

 

[Monado Blade]

Oh wow, woke up and saw the old thread added 5 pages then got closed since I last logged in.

Time to check the new Steam updates next. New game ownership badge huh? Sounds yummy

 

[Madrugador]

Cool, I'm level 12 now (was level 10).

 

[Weemanply109]

Nice. I'm gonna check to see my badges now.

 

[PixyJunket]

So I was on vacation last week, what in the blue world happened to that card swap bot service?

It's completely barren.

 

[Storm360]

Went up 4 here, Badge seems to cap at 2k

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

hopped from level 11 to 14. I'm cool with that.

 

[alr1ght]

what have you done?

 

[Firehead]

Damn you, Xelios.

 

[PixyJunket]

Now that's just mean.

 

[derExperte]

10->14. Why am I excited about this? And my game count looks so... flaccid.

 

[Monado Blade]

I noticed everybody else got upgraded several levels huh?

At first I was happy that I got up to Level 10, then I realised it didn't make a difference because everybody else went up as well

Am liking the showcase though

 

[Rickenslacker]

My actual Steam game list reports 293, but my profile 295. I must find what these two rebels are.

 

[alr1ght]

They started taking refined metal as a payment and people cleaned them out. There's still a healthy amount of cards on there, though.

I got a booster pack for Blocks That Matter. 3 cards, I can unpack or sell it. Huh.

We've added some new features to the beta today:

Booster packs: Players who have collected all the trading card drops they can for a game and have used Steam in the last week will randomly receive booster packs. These packs contain three additional cards for the game, and may contain foils.

Game Collector Badge: There's a new badge which will grant you XP based on how many games you have in your Steam library. This badge replaces the "100 XP for having at least one product registered" message at the bottom of the badges page.

Profile Game Count: The number shown next to the "Games" link on the new profile should now more closely match the number of games shown in the Steam library.

May contain foils.
