It is getting hot in here, almost... steamy: Steam Summer Sale 2012 Thread - Page 4

Picked up Terraria. Pretty neat stuff, though I haven't had the chance to do anything interesting yet because I can't go very far in either direction without getting swarmed by Eaters.

How does Multiplayer work on Terraria?

We had a Hamachi server set up ages ago, but I'm not sure of its current status.

Pip was the dude with the server for servering, so ask him.

Also new vote is up, not sure what to vote for that is not-Brink (UPDATE: Voted for Brink because Stronghold 3 somehow earned a metascore less than 50 and Ghost Recon seems 'meh'.)

EDIT: I also need some help with LEET IP HAX so I can see what two of the flash deals are (they say not available in my region). Or you can just say what they are (the not-Star wars and not-Backtothefuture). Lol valve placeholders.

I'm pretty sure Ghost Recon is a lot, lot less meh than Brink.

Anyway, you haven't needed Hamachi for Terraria since forever. If you want to cheat a little, you can download a map viewer for whatever maps you generate so you can locate where all the tasty minerals are. Beats fruitlessly digging around for hours on end like Minecraft.

Messiah of Might and Magic for under $3 is a true blast from the past... i just might give it a pass, cause it's a pretty dated game and i don't really see myself finishing it. Trine 2 on the other hand seems pretty cool, i have Trine 1 and love it, but 2 has Coop Multiplayer? How does that work?

BTW, the Bethesda pack is totally worth it for people who don't have most of those games...

It's like direct IP connection, I think. But you have to be part of a shitty community to get a good server it seems. And then the people on those servers are shitty too.

Most of those servers use third party server software which has tons of features necessary for playing with shit people. But last I checked it also fucks up bits of the game. so it's best to play with the two or three people you know who also have the game.

Also: for obvious reasons Terraria is more fun when you still don't know what the fuck is happening. I also recommend not using any map viewers and shit until you've got some decent mileage out of at least one character.

Meister had the server I played in, he had to shut it down because people weren't playing anymore IIRC. I?d be up for some multiplayer shenanigams if they ever happen again.

I bought Portal 2 for some people, but nothing for myself yet. I actually don't need many games this year. Shogun 2 eats my gaming life entirely, and I'm still working through Saints Row The Third.

I recommend both, by the way! The former for grand strategy, the latter for mindless awesome.

Vote the Darkness 2 for the next vote sale, since it's a very decent game with potential multiplayer shenanigans. RAGE doesn't bring that much and burns out right when you expect it to bring more and Revelations is basically a copy/paste of the last two Assassin Creed games in terms of gameplay.
