Steam Summer Sale 2012

Steam is concerned about my wallet’s well being.

A likely story…

Honest to god, if AOEIII complete doesn’t win the community vote on the last day, I’m gonna go schiz.

Got the DLC pack for Borderlands now aswell :slight_smile:

Should i buy Arma2 if I just wanted to play DayZ? Or should I wait until September for their rumored standalone version?

add me in steam and we can start as soon as you can.

I am waiting for their standalone version.

And it’s over. My wallet survived. Ahhhh.
It was glorious and yet I am somewhat glad that it’s over. At least until I tire of all the games I’ve bought!

my credit card company’s prbly rejoicing by now.

same here, except my wallet didn’t survive :smiley:

lol, ragewall. THere’s something wrong with your PC/install, is that not blatantly obvious.

The game load pretty fast for me.

Before the sale started I probably had over £100 that I wanted to save, now there’s nothing to save.

Thank God for tf2 stuff!!!

Although I didn’t need much this sale:

-Darkness 2
-Saints row 3

  • Dead Space 2
    -Crysis 2 max edition

stuff for further trade:

Gta 4
Bastion

I almost spent twice as much as I wanted to in the end, and got my Paypal into the minus =OP
but it was worth it =O)

Hmmm… I don’t know Siggs and Maxey… Everything else I own in Steam loads startup shit and saves etc pretty snappy-like – whether it be Dead Space 1 or 2, Portal2, all 3 Crysis, Metro2033, Assasins Creed… If I remember correctly though, Dead Island installed yet another copy of DirectX 9.x - and it isn’t the first game to do this… and some games install another copy of MS Visual C++ Redist… I have a bunch of these installed.

So I wonder: could multiple copies of DirectX 9.x and/or Visual C++ installs mess things up at all for some games? I am running on a auto-updated Win7 Pro x64, which I assume has DirectX 11, right? Anyone have ideas? I want to play this dang Dead Island some, but the loads make it almost unbearable… so I have been sticking with my wonderful new Crysis games for the time being.

Those multiple installs are normal, something to do with microsoft D3DX.

As for your problem, check DI forums or tech support.
