The Darkness II -- MB-4194F92843B3F38D - Taken by Eanan

 

[bloke]

Btw. is there any other bundle besides Humble ones accepting bitcoins?

 

[phoenix296]

Does Declassified have a launcher? Don't fancy idling in full game on my basic laptop.

You can use another steam game to fake that your playing to idle for cards. I used Half-life 2 for most of the sale.

Go into steam/steamapps/common/Half-Life 2/
Look for a .txt doc called "steam_appid.txt", open it and change the id to the game you want to idle for cards.
Start hl2.exe from the same folder, not through steam. Steam will think you're in the game you put in steam_appid rather than HL2 and you can get your card drops.

This isn't limited to Half-Life 2 but it doesn't work for all games. Play around with the games you have installed to see if you can get it working. The basic steps are the same though (alter steam_appid.txt and run the game from the folder rather than steam itself).

 

[Zero-Crescent]

The Darkness II is pretty awesome. Love this scene.

FINALLY, a nice Bundle!!

Thanks man, lots of people saying good things about this on reddit.

 

[Scythian]

Another bundle where I own most of it, if you ask me, The Darkness II is more than worth the $1+ . Really fun shooter / taking out people's hearts with your darkness pets.

 

[Grief.exe]

The 'best single player FPS' thread has really gone down hill.

The first couple pages I was getting hyped on some of the best FPS games to play, now it has gone to BioShock Infinite and Borderlands 2.

 

[wilflare]

so for those who redeemed Mafia II
what does it show under your Account Details?

 

[zkylon]

Shiet that sounds like a good time to me.

it's not if you don't have divinity

What's it like to have friends?

overrated

i got like 40 minutes of lunch for like a 90 pesos burger king

with 90 pesos i could prolly buy divinity with keys or something

Yep, these things happen:

i'm enjoying this more than i should

 

[GaussTek]

Thanks man, lots of people saying good things about this on reddit.

No problem, enjoy!

Thanks for Bioshock 2. Was the only game from the 2K bundle I didn't have.

Yep, these things happen:

Didn't noticed it'll end in 731 days.

[nampad]

Only X-Com interests me but the price for it alone is a little bit steep. One of the better bundles though.

Bioshock -- MB-F7CD43FC1BD3D850 - Taken by Divius

 

[Divius]

I totally forget about steamthreads because I always forget to subscribe to them :c

*suibscribes*

 

[iosefe]

Robocraft has hit Steam!

http://store.steampowered.com/app/301520/

it's a fun little game. build a battle vehicle out of cubes of different shape, size, and persuasion.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

Playing Vampire the Masquerade on my new PC. I guess it takes a while to get used to it. Is there not character customization in appearance?

 

[Kiru]

So anyone checked if Minerva's Den is included in that Bioshock 2 copy ?

 

[Zeknurn]

I totally forget about steamthreads because I always forget to subscribe to them :c

Just in time as this one is almost done.

Specifically, it doesn't work with games that don't use CEG/"Steam DRM", however they're hardly abundant in number. I myself use the app id trick with Age2 HD's launcher to idle -- the game was already installed and the launcher's memory footprint is tiny.

 

[super-famicom]

Didn't noticed it'll end in 731 days.

"Hey! My eyes are up here!"

 

[Shantom]

Bought it in Summer sale...Should've waited a week lol.

It was 66% off in the Summer, so you still got a better deal.

Spoiler

Unless you didn't wait for the dailies.

 

[Divius]

Just in time as this one is almost done.

Yeah, I suck. I'll try to subscribe to the next one early >.<

 

[Sky Chief]

I have some of these games but bought the bundle regardless. Is there anything special I have to do so that I can gift the duplicates of the games I already own? Don't want to screw this up

Kind of reminds me of Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. Might have to give it a go, seems pretty fun, even though it may very well be pay-to-win.

 

[kierwynn]

Oh man, I don't have any of the humble bundle games on steam yet. Definitely gonna do BTA.

 

[Ventara]

This newest Humble Bundle is pretty sweet. Got the mid-tier bundle for $5.17. I already have Bioshock and Spec Ops, and have already played Mafia 2, but still a good bundle for me.

Yep, these things happen:

OMG! Anime was right all along!!!

 

[Dice]

I still haven't played it since preordering, lol. And while it may seem I was smart with Darkness 2, waiting until it was $5 (3 weeks ago), they are basically giving that away too. Never underestimate PC discounts.

So anyone checked if Minerva's Den is included in that Bioshock 2 copy ?

Just checked, it's not.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Time to send Humble an e-mail, I bought the bundle, then wanted to upgrade for BTA and accidentally ended up buying the bundle again instead. Let's hope I can get the orders merged, otherwise I'll have some extra keys to give away.

 

[wilflare]

Just checked, it's not.

did you redeem Mafia II by any chance? mind checking your Account Details and share what's the name of this sub/code?

looks fun, i shall download it

 

[freshVeggie]

Stats are interesting.

Why do Mac/Linux owners pay that more? Are the tier one games not playable on mac?

 

[Jørdan]

Thanks for all the Bioshock giveaways &#9829;

 

[MadGear]

OK, upgraded to BTA. Spec Ops looks fun enough, at least to me

 

[Divius]

Oh wow, the humblebundle is pretty sweet. Been a while since I was this impressed by one.

The Darkness II -- MB-39B19481BDAEE568 - Taken by redlacs. 16 entrants total.

 

[JaseC]

my current Mafia II sub is Mafia II Retail nVidia
so I should be able to claim the one from the bundle and get everything?

You can buy the DDE, yeah. It includes a DLC app.

Edit: Nothing on the Humble Bundle page suggests that the game comes with DLC. I think you'll find it's just the standard edition.

 

[Elija2]

did you redeem Mafia II by any chance? mind checking your Account Details and share what's the name of this sub/code?

I did redeem it but I'm not sure what you mean by this. It shows up as "Mafia II Retail" if that's what you meant.

 

[random]

Does anybody know if it will be Uncut in Germany through the Humble Bundle?

I paid with a german Paypal account, but did not access the site from a german IP address, and got:

The Darkness II Standard Edition Retail

 

[Divius]

OK, upgraded to BTA. Spec Ops looks fun enough, at least to me

Haven't played it myself yet, but I don't think 'fun' is the right word for that game

 

[Sub Zero]

One of the best Humble Bundles ever. I own everything but good to see them getting back in form

 

[billmcdougal]

Haven't played it myself yet, but I don't think 'fun' is the right word for that game

The shooting mechanics are solid and may or may not provide some fun.

The story and overall experience, basically art. Like reading a good book. But yeah, "fun" isn't the best descriptor.

 

[toastyToast]

The Banner Saga down.

One of the few games I actually saw the end of this year. I had a pretty dang good time but I was unaware this game is a part of a trilogy, there are a whole bunch of loose threads at the end which had me a bit agitated when the credits started rolling. That said there is a fairly conclusive arc in the game as is. Took me a little while to warm up to it but I enjoyed the battle system, there's definitely room for improvement in part 2 though. The main thing is that there's a status effect system that's only ever used by one enemy (or 2, maybe). I don't think it should go the typical route with poison and stun and all that, a bit more flavour on top of the armour/strength system would be welcomed. Needless to say the game is pretty and the soundtrack is wonderful. Money well spent.

 

[BruteUA]

so for those who redeemed Mafia II
what does it show under your Account Details?

It won't let me redeem it because it's already in my library. So no idea if it'll add the DLC. Was hoping if it did it'd redeem over top of it.

 

[nampad]

I paid with a german Paypal account, but did not access the site from a german IP address, and got:

That's the cut one? I have a german Paypal account but live abroad right now.
