Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
If you like THQ's Facebook page you get a copy of Metro 2033. It's kind of sad really, I mean I guess it is a promotion for the sequel, but it also seems like kind of a dying flailing.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
And that humble bundle of theirs is also giving away quite a few games for less than 6$. Company of Heroes and its expacs are quality rts games.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
How old are these games, though. I mean, yeah, Saints Row 3 on the bundle might be worrisome, but the rest of the games seem decently old. Putting them in a bundle like the Humble bundle seems like a decent way to get people to buy the games, something many wouldn't do otherwise.
Not sure about the free game for liking on facebook, though.He fears his fate too much, and his reward is small, who will not put it to the touch, to win or lose it all.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
Red Faction was last year, Darksiders and Metro 2033 were two years before that, I'd call those recent and Saints Row 3 was this year. Company of Heroes was originally released in 2006 so it has been out awhile, but the expansions were more recent with Tales of Valor 3 years ago. The others were added after the bundle's inception and are relatively old, but overall it is not a good sign.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
What's the dropoff in sales? Aren't the vast majority of sales on a given game made in the first couple weeks or months? A two or more year old game, unless on a subscription or in game purchase model, might very well not seem any significant money, if that's the case.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
Things that confuse me: okay, I expect to have 5 snipers and 2 spies in a team of 9 in Harvest when only 10 seconds are left to capture the point. What I don't expect is to go on 2Fort and have zero snipers. Happened twice.
Also: my team controls the bridge in 2Fort. And I wait. And I wait. And no one tries to get the intelligence. Obviously this means the enemy intelligence room is full of level 3 sentries. But whatever, I'm bored since I can't snip anything (I'm sniper with machina, razorback, Tribalman's Shiv and Gibbus). So I go to room, which is completely empty, get the intelligence and almost get back to own room, if not an enemy scout with our intelligence kills my of the stairs in our own base.
By the way: is it a good idea to solo two heavies in melee with Tribalman's Shiv? I got surprisingly successful in melee with Shiv recently and I wonder if I got a bit too bold.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
Well, unlike what haters sat, 2Fort is pretty bad sniper map...
Not as bad as completely broken ones like Steel, but still.

And scouts can take tunnel or roof of bridge, I guess.

Yes, meleeing heavy or lev 3 sentry as Sniper is surprisingly viable, unless the other guy knows what he is doing.Come one, come all! GitP MLP Steam Group is open!

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
Not really, but yeah, I meant Foundry. Also steel-themed >_<
Along with Granary, it's I think the worst Sniper map.
It's easier if you dump the razorback for a jarate. The razorback is just a waste of a slot.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
THQ probably dying. It's worth noting that a lot of what THQ actually did was incredibly dumb, even if they did have a talent for publishing games by good developers.
Hopefully when THQ dies, all the good developers will get snapped up. Maybe we can have a new Red Faction game that isn't awful!Last edited by shadow_archmagi; 2012-12-12 at 11:28 AM.

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
Huh, the top contribution is $1,650.01 (I assume the 0.01 was to get above the guy who paid $1,650). Guess someone really likes THQ.
Also, awesome, SR3 and Dawn of War were two of those games I always meant to get, but never actually did (I do already have Titan Quest, but having a digital copy is cool too, I guess).

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
The following is my uneducated guess, so please don't take this as gospel.
There's gonna be as many people uncrating goods as before, so there's not going to be any decrease in demand. There'll likely be a few immediate fluctuations in price as spare keys are bought up by people who would have otherwise used the store, but it should eventually fall back to a stable level. The difference is that now the people who sell keys will now have a safer way to sell them, and that all the money traded for keys is going to be going back into steam's system. I presume they've actually planned this quite carefully.Awesome Iron Chef avatars by Neoseph7! Murkrow avatar of coolness by Introbulus!Spoiler

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
I don't think so, at least not in the long run. Many things being sold in the market can't be bought from the Store (strange parts, for example), and things like crate keys have been bought from the Store already. For example, it's cheaper to buy crate keys on the Steam Market, but I expect that will change. Econ 101 says that if nobody's buying keys from the Store, but people are still using keys, the number of keys in existence will go down. As a result, Market key prices will go up. Eventually, they'll raise higher than the Store's price for keys, and people will start buying from Mann Co. again.
Man, talking about the Store and the Market in the same post gets confusing fast.Originally Posted by Book of Erotic Fantasy

Re: [Steam]-y Thread 30: Throwing titles out the window!
Well, this is inconvenient, at first it was 2 refined a key, then 2.5, now it is 3 refined a key. When the steam store kicks in, will it be impossible to trade refined for keys anymore?
