It says 50% off l4d2. Not free. Nvm I only read a specific part of what was linked in the op.

Oh god my block list is going to get huge. There's enough griefers already.

Oh, so is this why the Steam Store and everything else is down?

Time to get l4d2 gifts and gift everyone who hasn't this in my friendslist. The catch is I only can buy the German censored version.

Good thing I grabbed it as soon as I saw the thread :v:

can someone confirm if you still get the Ellis Cap and Frying Pan in tf2?

Great, all my friends are asleep when stuff like this happens.

[QUOTE=The Baconator;43305952]This game is fun for a month[/QUOTE] not even

[QUOTE=Saturn V;43306403]Great, all my friends are asleep when stuff like this happens.[/QUOTE] It's steam pacific time so uh you have more than enough time to redeem it I'm pretty sure.

God the fucking servers are shitting themself I can't get it goddamnit.

[QUOTE=The Baconator;43305952]This game is fun for a month[/QUOTE] Tell that to my 800 hours!

God damnit the servers are offline...

Good job. We successfully DDoS'd Steam on Christmas just by trying to get L4D2.

[QUOTE=RzDat;43306522]God damnit the servers are offline...[/QUOTE] Nah. It's just steam shitting itself because of too many players trying to get it. R.I.P. Steam

It seems it is easier to connect to Steam through an actual browser than in the Steam client for those who can't connect.

[QUOTE=matt000024;43306554]It seems it is easier to connect to Steam through an actual browser than in the Steam client for those who can't connect.[/QUOTE] Both don't work for me. Me and a friend are going crazy on steam chat because were so annoyed we can't get it.

[QUOTE=matt000024;43306554]It seems it is easier to connect to Steam through an actual browser than in the Steam client for those who can't connect.[/QUOTE] I try to login, and I just get an infinite spinning gear symbol. Don't get me wrong, it's quite mesmerizing. But it's not getting me L4D2.

YEAH I GOT IT. Managed to squeeze myself through the thousands of steam users trying to grab a copy and snatched myself one. Thanks valve!

[QUOTE=KennyAwsum;43306588]Use the Internet Browser.[/QUOTE] I haven't signed into steam in a little over a year now. Steam Guard won't let me sign in until I give it a "special access code," and the servers are so bogged down that it won't send me the email that has it. I think I'm just going to try later. Nevermind, email finally came through after about 30 minutes of trying to login.

Their steamguard email servers are pretty shit, a friend of mine trying to redeem a humble bundle I gave her for Christmas (two weeks early but meh) hasn't gotten a single steam guard email, while she's requested dozens over the past two weeks.

Everytime I use SteamGuard the emails are instant. How about checking your spam, junk, etc.

[QUOTE=Advancedrock;43306645]works every single time to me, she probably messed up in some way shape or form.[/QUOTE] My friend's kid had the same issue, they were not sending emails to his registered email at all, despite dozens of attempts. Then one day about 5 months in the future he had over 100 new emails all from Steam with his steamguard shit.

Did this crash Steam?

[QUOTE=SCopE5000;43306181]They should make a free sequel which has a drops/inventory system like TF2 or DOTA, and take elements of the generated weapon system from Borderlands 2. That should scale up by putting you against increasingly difficult enemies based on your group's weapon/equipment levels. So you'd be zombie slaying with your friends and get some epic drops, like super baseball bats, hats, clothing etc.[/QUOTE] that is the worst idea in the world worse than feminism

[QUOTE=SCopE5000;43306040]I bought the first, and was pissed off when they promised tons of new maps, content and other DLC for it, but then announced a second, full-priced game instead.[/QUOTE] Nearly the same here, but it was the community who got upset at Valve for their delays... Turns out people did complain, and that Valve Time is a good thing.

[QUOTE=FromTheFuture;43306699]that is the worst idea in the world worse than feminism[/QUOTE] Haaaaaaaaaa totally not trolling. Also, yeah it's super slow right now.

Trying to log into the browser to get l4d2, it's taking forever goddamn
