Ayepecks Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Already have Left 4 Dead 2 on the 360, but I got it on Steam as well now. $10 is just too good a deal to pass up, IMO, and I love playing with the PC crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08993 Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Think we'll have to wait until the Autumn to actually install our games - servers are too busy and have been for a few days now, ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah just bought it too. ?6.80 in the UK which is a steal! Think we'll have to wait until the Autumn to actually install our games - servers are too busy and have been for a few days now, ffs.

TrevPlus Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I was resisting buying games then i see you recommend Audiosurf & Beat Hazard. Steam is just to easy as i have now brought them along with the Peggle Pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayepecks Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Think we'll have to wait until the Autumn to actually install our games - servers are too busy and have been for a few days now, ffs. I'm getting ~350KB/s on the Dallas server (I live relatively close to Dallas). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViZioN Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I'm getting ~350KB/s on the Dallas server (I live relatively close to Dallas). Currently getting 50KB/s trying to download L4D2. Normally I max out at 2MB/s. Oh well, guess I'll just leave it on overnight. Edit: Tried changing the download server and seems to be a fair bit quicker now. Getting around 300KB/s.

08993 Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I'm getting ~350KB/s on the Dallas server (I live relatively close to Dallas). UK servers are hopeless, I switched to France and managed to get one game DL'ing but now that server is too busy as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted June 26, 2010 Veteran Share Posted June 26, 2010 Download speeds will vary by region. If you're having issues, change your download location in the Steam settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Their servers are taking a massive hit, I usually max out my connection but with all these sales going on, I'm barely hitting 500 kb/s and the average speed is around 100 kb/s. Can't say that I blame them but it certainly is annoying to see your newly purchased game arrive so slowly :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted June 26, 2010 Veteran Share Posted June 26, 2010 I guess I'm lucky because I was downloading Supreme Commander 2 at 1.6 MB/s. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewbares Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 "The Steam servers are currently too busy to handle your request. Please try again in a few minutes." Loll. I just wanna download mah AudioSurf!!! Fastest my internet ever goes is 160 KB/s, so don't compain you fiber optic people :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViZioN Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 UK servers are hopeless, I switched to France and managed to get one game DL'ing but now that server is too busy as well. I'm currently getting a fairly steady 600KB/s off the Netherlands servers right now. Not great, but pretty good considering how busy the servers must be.

Xilo Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 and here I was debating on supreme commander 2, zeno clash, and audio surf The games are good, just not the kind of stuff people hope for in the daily special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajputwarrior Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 There's still over 16 hours left of the sale, aren't you home by then ... off work in 5 hours, party for at least another 4-5 (i usually get pretty smashed) if it turns out well i go home with something, or go to their home with something.With all of that, I could maybe pull it off... (Y) thanks for letting me knwo theres sixteen hours left. and yeah i could try my iphone xilo. Fact that everyone here is buying it also definitely gives me people to play with too.

deletedxyz Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 everyone getting left 4 dead 2 makes me wanna get left 4 dead 2... I picked up L4D2. $10.20 is worth it. I guarantee you that you will spend more than 10 hours smashing, shooting, exploding and bashing zombies so that's <$1 for each hour of gameplay. I doubt you can get a better form of entertainment than that. Valve also releases free DLCs unlike Bioware and other companies with their money grubbing schemes. off work in 5 hours, party for at least another 4-5 (i usually get pretty smashed) if it turns out well i go home with something, or go to their home with something.With all of that, I could maybe pull it off... This is why you stay indoors, order a game on Steam and spend hours playing it. You skip the hangover, meager social activities that involve harming yourself and enter the zombie apocalypse. :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
