[QUOTE=Pernoccuous;50575076]is this sale going to be like the last one where they did away with the flash/daily sales and all discounts will be available immediately or are they going to cycle[/QUOTE] As far as I know, no more Flash/Dailies, because of the Refund system
[QUOTE=Magikoopa24;50575027][media]https://twitter.com/Wario64/status/746018896830828544[/media] Protect your wallets[/QUOTE] None of those seem good. 10 - 15 % is a very low discount for an expensive bundle, especially when it's basing it off the full price of the games which are going to be discounted anyway. Edit: Actually it seems the prices shown there are wrong: [url]http://store.steampowered.com/bundle/785/[/url] The summer sale JRPG bundle shows 68% off for me.
its up seems to be no game OR comic this time
Steam's dead already. No game from what i can tell :( [vid]http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/clusters/sale_summer2016_daily/7805a9cd444a9cc818fa165c/video_webm_english.webm?t=1466663323[/vid] This is cool
Perhaps there's an arg again. Being hopeful.
2016, billions in the bank and the servers are still shit

I have every summer sale card but you can't actually craft the badge right now, brilliant [img]https://i.gyazo.com/9f3e27fc79eb40bcedc8f33955d7bea4.png[/img] where the badge at
[QUOTE=xianlee;50575254]2016, billions in the bank and the servers are still shit[/QUOTE] I can't be mad at companies for this kind of thing; servers get this busy maybe two or three times a year. It's so much more cost effective to let there be 30 minutes of spotty downtime than investing hugely on something that's unnecessary for almost the entire year.
I knew I should have waited to buy Fallout 4, it's half price.
So should I buy all the games I want now, or wait? I don't think the prices will change
was hoping for a 50% off for phantom pain, damn.
[QUOTE=bobxrawks;50575304]So should I buy all the games I want now, or wait? I don't think the prices will change[/QUOTE] Prices are still changing and being updated
So, I'm guessing there's nothing else to this years summer sale, no minigame/event?
Stellaris only 10% off. Dammit, I was hoping for a bigger deal...
[QUOTE=lionheart1066;50575328]So, I'm guessing there's nothing else to this years summer sale, no minigame/event?[/QUOTE] Nope, you can go through discovery for cards though.

Steam could definitely afford some better servers for the storefront.
Holy shit Doom is already 40% off despite being out for only a month
12 euro is the best sale they can do on rocket league? meh pass
Prepared for disappointment, got disappointment
[QUOTE=gdfsgdfg;50575338]12 euro is the best sale they can do on rocket league? meh pass[/QUOTE] buy the CE, comes with all DLC and you get 4 cars like 20 days before anyone else
[QUOTE=Antimuffin;50575336]Holy shit Doom is already 40% off despite being out for only a month[/QUOTE] And it's still like 60 AUD
For those wanting to pick up the Sonic Franchise, please take a look at Humble Bundle as they're doing a 25th anniversary of Sonic Bundle where you get most of the same games for 10 dollars instead of the 49 dollars on Steam.

Finally stardew valley is on sale!..oh nevermind its just 20% fuck it
[QUOTE=werewolf0020;50575394]Finally stardew valley is on sale!..oh nevermind its just 20% fuck it[/QUOTE] This bummed me out so much.
[QUOTE=werewolf0020;50575394]Finally stardew valley is on sale!..oh nevermind its just 20% fuck it[/QUOTE] Don't the individual devs control the sale percent? I'm not sure how it goes during large sales like this.
Yeaaaah, the reduction prices are so minimal it's not even worth most of these sales.
[QUOTE=Scruffel;50575299]I knew I should have waited to buy Fallout 4, it's half price.[/QUOTE] -50% off for Fallout 4 but Fallout 3 is -40% off? what Also Oblivion is not discounted at all
Why are there so many games without a discount? And most are 20/30% off. This is lame.
