Got an AMD Gold code for me and the girlfriend~! I grabbed Sniper Elite 3, Darksiders 2, and Alien Isolation and she got Alien Isolation, Star Citizen, and Sniper Elite 3.

It's too late now, but Star Citizen isn't exactly Star Citizen:

Well it is a little confusing, but I'll try and explain, you buy packages which include a ship, Squadron 42, Star Citizen and other goodies (insurance for ship, racing and AC modules, etc.) You can always but additional ships to add to your package for extra money. What the AMD thing is, it's more of a demo than anything, it just includes a ship and access to the racing module and bot/TDM module, in order to get full access to the game you will have to buy a package which includes a ship, S42, and SC, not sure if it's cheaper if you have the AMD ship but it might be I'm not sure if you can just buy access to the game and no extra ship.

He also wanted to trade $0.39 Tropico 4 games for a TF2 key each. Not really sure what his deal was. But whatever, he'll be back and we'll all forget this and chill out in this thread like usual.

Yes you brought that up in the BST thread already, no need to start more shit here too.

Guys just leave it, not important. Talk about games.

Does Wolfenstein run that bad on AMD cards(7950, specifically)? I guess I can lock it to 30fps, but I'm not a fan of dips below that.

I gave Saj a game he really wanted. So he has to be super nice to me for an entire year.

Not sure why anyone would be mean to me anyway. But Saj made me cried before.
Still loves him though. BFF

Remind me to play Payday 2 with some of y'all at some point. I especially love teaching people how to play well, so if you're new to the game, I'm awesome.

Maybe at some point, I can resurrect 80s bot so we can jam to some sweet 80s pop while heisting stuff.

I'm not a big XP dude, since I'm only part way to Infamy II.

But yeah. Later in the week, if anyone wants to play Payday 2, hit me up.

It's a shame they don't actually mention that anywhere on the site, what a waste :/

Ah well can't complain too much I guess.

Ah crap, I didn't realize those Bronze codes had those rewards. I can't take myself out of a ModBot raffle can I?

If I win and don't want it what do I do? Raffle it myself?

Wolf14, you mean? The game should be perfectly playable provided your drivers are up-to-date, you disable screen-space reflections and knock down the shadows to 4k. The game doesn't support multi-GPU setups, so I essentially ran it with a single 670, which is comparable to a 7950, and had no trouble at the aforementioned settings. Then the game deleted my save and I stopped.

Do you have The Witcher 3 pre-ordered or do you intend to pre-order it? If so, I'd leave TW2 alone until closer to February 25th.

Reading Star Citzen.
Sounds like you should just be playing EVE unless I'm missing something.
Click to expand...

It's more Freelancer with a persistent universe but similar to EVE in it's reliance on roles and faction based stuff. Like certain ships are for certain roles and players can specialize and not be penalized for it.

I missed awesome AMD deal? awww

For those of you who aren't fortunate enough to get an AMD Gold or Silver codes and want one of the games in the Gold or Silver tiers.

Don't be sad. Just add them to your wishlist. I'm going to be giving everything I have away. Obviously I won't have enough for everyone. But best of luck. :)

Currently I have a package which includes a ship, S42, SC and other goodies, and the AMD code will just add that ship to my hangar since I already have a game package.

That sounds complicated. Are they going to use the same module system when they release the final game?

I suppose I was right when I said you can probably get Alien Isolation even cheaper through the AMD code route. Didn't mean $0.99 though..

Now to find one of those codes. Still very unsure about Alien Isolation but for $10 or so, I'll give it a shot.

No interest in multi-GPU here, and I can deal with those tweaks(running 14.7 driver atm). Ouch on the save.

I won't be awake when the raffle ends, if you're around then you are free to redeem and redo the raffle yourself. If not or you just don't feel like it do what the other guys said to do. G'night SteamGAF.

Yeah they are, but with the exception that you will be able to buy additional ships with in game currency then. It's actually an okay pricing model if you want a specific ship and the game without having to buy stuff you don't want but it can be really confusing for someone who doesn't keep up with it. Like right now you can go there and get a starter ship (the Aurora) Squadron 42, and Star Citizen for $40, and that would get you access to the game when it comes out. It gets more confusing when you add other ships and alpha, beta access, and other stuff to your package.
