Opinions on community vote?

you guys worry too much, Steam always crashes during the summer sale it is to be expected

Here's hoping Krater wins.

Waiting for the new deals is kinda losing it's excitement since so many are repeats.

Yeah, I worry that the Daily Deals will be like 85% rehashed Community/Flash Sales.

Yep, at least Krater is a new deal.

The pack with the 5 DLCs and The Lost Chapters was the same price as the base game. That's what was up (and why I grabbed it).

Um...

Lulz, I got through and the deals had not changed

It's odd having the site down before 1PM EST. Usually it crashes around the time new daily deals appear.

Still not working for me

Apparently I'm not the only one unable to get through. I went to check the deals this morning about 40m ago, and couldn't get on even then. And now I'll miss my community vote and never get my badges.

oh well. Hey there F5.

Hey man, Central time-zone. I'm always confused what time it is! That 8/7 central crap still confounds me after being an east coaster.

In preparation for the possibility of an ARMA II sale - what's all this DayZ hype? I read over the website for the mod, but didn't have a chance to watch any gameplay video...it sounds like most people are buying ARMA II just to play DayZ?

I'm hoping it comes. They may have to wait until existing contracts end, of course.
The biggest clue, or trolling, was the last minute of the Double Fine Adventure campaign countdown party. The cameras were off but Tim Schafer was still (knowingly) mic'd and said, "I didn't say anything about Trenched PC did I? Whew." Someone else, "Your mic!" Cut to black.

The badge requires you to vote at least 20 times and each day. We already hit 15 votes earlier so even if you just vote once a day from now on so long as you have been keeping up, you will be perfectly fine...

Mobile app is still down :(

Total damages so far: around $90. I've got about $15 left and one last thing on my wishlist, but the sales in the last day or so have been rather underwhelming. Let's hope they've got something nice in store for us

Underwhelming, yet you spent $90?

I played the Krater Beta, mostly because I was hoping for good things from Fatshark. The post-apocalyptic Swedish setting is cool and different but the combat was very bland and I've read that there are a host of other design issues, like having to replace your characters every five levels because they can't advance anymore. I'm not too enthused about it at this point.

*sniffffffffffffffffffff*
Ahhh new thread smell
