Started with 4. It seemed like the logical thing to do.

How do I install Postal 2?

You have to go to desura.com and download their Desura client, install it, create an account (if you don't have one) log in, and then use that key on your bundle to activate Postal 2 on Desura. Then you will be able to download and install it through Desura. If you run into any issues let us know and we'll try to walk you through it as activating a product on Desura can be tricky.

Note that you do not have to use their client, although it may make managing your games on their service easier.

To activate the code, enter it in here (you'll need to create or log into a Desura account):
https://secure.desura.com/cart/gifts/activate

After the code is activated, you can download the installer on the game's page (as long as you're logged in):

You know, I didn't know that. Very cool/convenient. I like Desura so I am glad I didn't know that and gave their client a chance, but that is agreat option to have. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the info on Desura. Postal 2 was one of the main reasons I bit on this bundle. I hear it totally sucks, but it looks like some mindless fun.

Postal 2 is amazing. Little can match the joy of lighting a man on fire, urinating to put out his flaming corpse, and then chopping his head off with a shovel for the hell of it.

Exactly. Eat your heart out, GTA.

I'm still waiting for my free gift email. Support hasnt responded yet.

Same. It seems like that Jonny Cappuccino guy is sending them all manually, which is why it's taking forever.. I emailed support a couple days ago and haven't had a response yet. I even talked Christian (one of the admins) and nothing has been done yet.

Please stop turning this thread into a tradelist.

Anyone have Jonny Cappuccino's email? I might as well shoot him an email directly considering that support hasn't been responding.

So I guess they've added a new goal. It's now Goal 6, and the former Goal 6 has been bumped to Goal 7.

Anyway, the new Goal 6 is this:

If we reach $50k, then for the first 24hrs of Build a Bundle 2, we’ll discount game and bundle prices by 40%! BAB2 launches next week.

It's a great bonus, but I don't think we'll meet the goal. We're getting around 100 sales per hour.

Build a bundle! Yeah!!!! If they could restrict the discount to only people who bought 3 I think that would drive sales, but sounds too complicated.

I welcome another "build-a-bundle", but doesn't it seem odd that it appears that it's gonna run during the expected run time for the Steam Sale? Isn't it gonna be overshadowed by steam sale fervor?

Also, if you're a dev/publisher, aren't you looking at a situation where people will essentially be able to buy your game for a buck? Wouldn't you rather only have that option available to people after the Summer Sale ends? After a certain number of people have bought your game for more than a buck?

I guess that depends on the games in the bundle. If it's a bunch of games like Caster (which is only $5 and goes on sale during the big sales for about a buck), then I guess it doesn't really matter.

Maybe I'm the only one, but ever since bundles took off, I can't say I've given a damn about Steam sales.

Interesting.

I'd say 90% of the games I play are from indie bundles. I hadn't thought about that until just now.

yeah, I was just thinking this the other day... I'm at the point of I'll take free crap Valve throws my way but my backlog of indie games has grown quite large. I'll probably just do the achievement stuff from all the games I've already got and just wait for the next bundle.

emailed support again and finally got my gift bundle.
