    so, im looking to get my summer badge (yes, it costs money, yes its just for e-peen, and yes, its my hobby/choice) as high as possible, so if any1 got any sale cards they wanna get rid of in exchange for other games cards/emotes/backgrounds, i want them! , i'll also consider TF2 keys for summer cards if the price is right

    trade link to my account:

    with that out of the way, how you feeling about this year sale?, i have to admit, sofar im dissapointed, having only bought farcry 3, which i can't even play thanks to Ubi****, there haven't really been anything yet that got me excited, maybe Planetary Annihilation for 15 euro, but the early acces is screaming at me to stay away

    This summer sale is TERRIBLE. It basically shows that this has been a very slow year when it comes to good games. I basically already owned all the good games on sale and only bought a few I deem mediocre at best. I bought Thief, Baldur's Gate 2 and Rust (which wasn't even reduced).

    I played Farcry3 earlier today and didn't have any problems with Ubisoft.

    Am ticked. I dont like this way of getting special event badges like summer sale etc etc. Because I felt it was better when it did not rely on Trading Cards to get them. It should be given with particapation in it.

    because of the double layer of DRM, it crashes constantly, total of 23 times, in 3 hours of trying to play

    and i know its the DRM crap, because i tested with a friend who has FC3 directly on Ubiplay, and that ran flawless for 2 hours straight, on the same pc!


    gotten summer badge up to lvl 9 atm, and it didn't cost me anything, the joy of selling cards , im tempted to get the foil, but the price for it goes against what im willing to pay

    Drenus look on the right for the cd-key and use that to put the game on Uplay which you should have done.

    Instead of playing from Steam play from Uplay instead.
    Oh and Don't forget some tuts on ASM and defeating DMA

    ummm, the first time you start it on steam, it starts up Uplay, and tells you to add the cd-key before being able to play

    even if i close steam completly, and just try to run it via Uplay, it boots steam back up

    but thanks for the suggestion DaB^^

    I have no doubt of your results with UPlay, it's just that we're doing things much the same but I'm not getting all the crashes you report. I fire up the trainer, then the DX11 exe, UPlay opens, I start FC3 there, a small Steam box comes up, I hit that and the game loads...I play from there.

    That about the same as you're doing? I'm at a loss to explain the differences in your and my results. But I've been almost crash free on two play thrus, much the same as you reported for your friend. Apparently your milage is varying, it's the why that's the bugger.
