Major Update Speculation V5: Somewhere over the rainbow - Games

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36693118]I want, now I know this is going to get some hate, the Angry Birds series on Steam[/QUOTE] AB don't really work on PC. Most of the fun comes from the touch screen.

[QUOTE=J-RcZ;36693208]AB don't really work on PC. Most of the fun comes from the touch screen.[/QUOTE] Just because you find it more fun on the touchscreen doesn't mean it can't work for PC. [url]http://chrome.angrybirds.com/[/url] It works nicely imo.

[QUOTE=DatWut?;36693148]I played Angry Birds once, I quite like it and find it amusing. Why should it be getting hate?[/QUOTE] There are thousands of better flash games and this one got somehow popular for no reason. That's how I see it. It's not like I care though. EDIT: Jrcz meant that you don't get the same experience with mouse, not that there are some issues with the game itself.

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693232]Have you even played VVVVVVVV(VVVVV?)? Please point me where the originality is, since I can't find it. Same with Binding of Isaac.[/QUOTE] Binding of Isaac is about a corrupted child who jumps into the bottomless pits of his home in order to escape and eventually [sp]defeat his own mother.[/sp] How is that not original? :v:

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693232]Have you even played VVVVVVVV(VVVVV?)? Please point me where the originality is, since I can't find it. Same with Binding of Isaac.[/QUOTE] You know, I could write an article about the original stuff about the games, but I refuse to waste my time on impenetrable minds such as yours.

[QUOTE=mixshifter;36693113]I want Fez on Steam.[/QUOTE] agree so hard

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36693118]I want, now I know this is going to get some hate, the Angry Birds series on Steam[/QUOTE] Why? Isn't it on Google chrome store?

[QUOTE=Scizor;36693303]Why? Isn't it on Google chrome store?[/QUOTE] Most of the games on Steam are available off-Steam, what's your point?

[QUOTE=Scizor;36693303]Why? Isn't it on Google chrome store?[/QUOTE] be nice to have sales and steam achievements

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36692917]Binding of Isaac and VVVVV are both Flash games, nothing wrong with Flash games.[/QUOTE] VVVVVV is not a flash game anymore.

[QUOTE=Jvs;36693335]VVVVVV is not a flash game anymore.[/QUOTE] yea, I guess I should have worded that differently.

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693332]Wow, the story is original! Oh my god, I now love these boring games for their deep and rich storyline! Thank you for showing me to the enlightenment. Excuse me for not liking something. Well, it's nice of you to not try and force it on me like some would.[/QUOTE] Well that's the first thing that comes to mind when we talk about whether a game is original or not. Gameplay-wise, the gameplay isn't exactly original but the way it's executed is something I haven't seen in any game before. Randomly generated levels, randomly generated ways to give you items and currency. Every game is different, some games will fuck you over and other games you'll get insanely lucky and successful. It's one of those games I always keep installed because I'll never know when I wanna attempt a run through it. My god Chalky, I thought you stopped with this nonsense ages ago.

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693332]Excuse me for not liking something. Well, it's nice of you to not try and force it on me like some would.[/QUOTE] Not liking something is pferectly fine. But you bring such a HATE towards those games and accuse them of not being original. The Binding of Isaac for example has a story I've never seen before, and VVVVVV is pretty creative gameplay wise. But due to you not liking these games, you're all like "not creative, shit game". That's what he meant with "impenetrable mind". You can stick to your [B]opinion[/B], but you have to accept some other points others bring up. Just my 2 cents.

I got sorta angry when they added skyrim on workshop, kinda wanted it to be a tf2-only thing.

I wonder if there would be a way to hook the indie games up to a related TF2 item as sort of "here's a promo item we also made, take a look at what could be in TF2 if this game is accepted"

[QUOTE=mphayes97;36693491]I got sorta angry when they added skyrim on workshop, kinda wanted it to be a tf2-only thing.[/QUOTE] Yeah, it felt as when you just realized your wife slept with dovahkiin. At first you're angry, but then you're like "oh fuck this shit he's dovahkiin" I need to go sleep.

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693538]I will never stop wondering strange things such as paying for flash games with unoriginal gameplay. Maybe they are just too ~deep~ for me to understand.[/QUOTE] this is why no one respects your opinions, you share them in the most rude and unnecessary ways

[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36693516]I wonder if there would be a way to hook the indie games up to a related TF2 item as sort of "here's a promo item we also made, take a look at what could be in TF2 if this game is accepted"[/QUOTE] I doubt that there will be a built-in method for this until there is a large enough demand for it. But the workaround would be for them to link to one another in the workshop and greenlight description.

Hey hey guys hey why don't we keep this shitty argument about opinions to PMs and go back to speculation? He doesn't like a couple games, ok, argue about it somewhere else.

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693626]No one respects my opinions because I don't like things I am 'meant' to like.[/QUOTE] Ah yes. You're that kind of hipster that doesn't claim himself to be a hipster because they're too mainstream for him.

[QUOTE=mphayes97;36693491]I got sorta angry when they added skyrim on workshop, kinda wanted it to be a tf2-only thing.[/QUOTE] Wouldn't that be kind of selfish of Valve though? It's not like it hurts anybody.

I wonder if we'll get one last Pyromania bug fix tonight or tomorrow. There's just a few more bugs left, and then the update is practically bug free. Also we'll probably get an update Wednesday. Not that they technically need to, but adding so many items to the store and removing items from backpacks usually brings an update.

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693813]They are propably still too busy on Dota 2. I believe there are some problems viewing the Defense.[/QUOTE] different teams. TF2 always has a standard staff size of a dozen or so people, so not even the worst Dota 2 bug fixes would change that

The ash items could be given the Festive crate treatment and the store, well whatever valve does to make it work.

[QUOTE=Erfly;36693880]Can't this all be done through the schema and item servers though? The ash items could be given the Festive crate treatment and the store, well whatever valve does to make it work.[/QUOTE] yea, but it's such a large change, they've never done big changes like that 100% schema. Usually 100% schema "patches" are little bug fixes like changing the Spy's Nanobalaclava to use his instead of Heavy's, or making the Three Rune Blade use Eyelander sounds. They haven't really ever added a dozen new items to the shop, plus removed thousands of items out of the system without some sort of patch with it. It also helps aid confusion, if a patch ships that explains the ashes were removed and new items were added to the shop.

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693813]They are propably still too busy on Dota 2. I believe there are some problems viewing the Defense.[/QUOTE] There's a Dota 2 team and a TF2 team... they operate independently...

[QUOTE=Erfly;36693733]Wouldn't that be kind of selfish of Valve though? It's not like it hurts anybody.[/QUOTE] Wouldn't really have been selfish if they made a content accepting and delivering system for tf2 only, it would just have been the average thing to do. Instead they went a step further and added support for other games. Also I'm excited, I'm going back to work on that android game soon because of this announcement. I'll make sure it has a unique rocket launcher with unique rockets. so we can get a nice rocket launcher[sp]and rocket bodygroups[/sp]in tf2

I'm really hoping those damn promos become tradable this thursday, it's pretty goddamn sad when I'm starting to get more antsy about those than the prospect of getting them Grodbort guns.

Some more hints for MvM please?

[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;36693232]Have you even played VVVVVVVV(VVVVV?)? Please point me where the originality is, since I can't find it. Same with Binding of Isaac.[/QUOTE] have you played them? because according to steam you have zero time clocked on VVVVVV and you don't even own the binding of isaac nice job looking like a complete tool there talking shit about things you've never played because rockcock64 told you the games weren't cool
