So, hey guys, I just saw the E3 Digital Key on Humble Bundle, and decided to get it mainly for the Payday 2 masks and Civ3, as well as the Twitch Turbo. As far as everything else goes, I don't play any of the games the other content is for, and don't plan on playing any of the other ones, so I thought i'd give these keys away rather than waste them on myself or haggle them off like a bum for cents.
Since i'd prefer these to go to registered users from MS, and try to avoid dumb shenanigans, i'll post which ones I have, and you simply PM me asking for which code you want, and i'll PM it back to you. I think i'd like to limit it to 2 codes per person as I don't have multiples of codes or that many to begin with. This is my first giveaway after all, even if it's not super amazing since it's mainly DLC content, but it's something I hope!
Oh, and a small disclaimer, I bought the bundle when the codes for Company of Heroes 2 DLC Pack and Rome 2 Nomadic Tribes DLC were sold out, that is why I don't have them, sorry!
What I have (I'll update this when something goes)- Anomaly 2 (Full Game)
- MX vs ATV Reflex (Full Game)
- Magicka: Wizard Wars E3 Robe
- Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection (Full Game)
- Warframe Booster Pack
- EVE Online: Trial Key
- EVE Online: Rifter Ship Skin
- Landmark 1-Week Closed Beta Key
- SMITE - Almighty Zeus
- Warframe Booster Pack

Skyrim is a game that will almost most definitely get its own flash sale or daily sale, it did during the Winter Sale. Wait a couple days, it will drop to like 5 or 7 bucks. Also, I would get the legendary edition, since it has all of the dlcs.In post 937, zoraster wrote:Got Enemy Within for $10. Considering Skyrim at the same price. I dont' think I'll like it, but for ten bucks, maybe worth a shot?\
This is the principle of steam sales. Wait for daily sales and flash sales for your games , if they haven't gone on sale by the end of the sale, then buy them on the second last day.I swear I'm trying my best

FTL is hard. The first time I got to the flagship (which was actually my third playthrough i think?), I got obliterated in the first round. On easy.In post 996, Zachrulez wrote:

For some reason I struggle a lot to get to the flagship. I've only managed it once, even on easy.
My advice for the flagship is boarding parties, rockets, and high evasion. All of the rocket/weapon rooms on the flagship are isolated rooms on the sides that nobody but their assigned gunners can access. If you have proper crewmembers that can board ships, you can slowly teleport two soldiers at a time into each of the rocket rooms, killing the gunners and then destroying the weapon in the room. Focus on the two rooms adjacent to the pilot, those two I believe are the strongest and deadliest. All the while, make sure you have high evasion and at least a three-layered shield so you can withstand the rockets and lasers. If you have the Federation Cruiser, all you have to do really is keep boarding the ship, killing the gunners, and waiting for the beam to strike. Eventually the beam will kill the ship in about 3 or 4 hits.
That pretty much works for the first two stages of the flagship. The last one is very hard because of the mind control, the flagship will start to brainwash your crewmembers in addition to sending landing drones. Basically you need defense drones to shoot down the landers, and you have to focus your rockets and fire on the mind control panel of the ship to keep your crewmembers healthy. Bombs are pretty effective as well, such as fire bombs and emp bombs, since they bypass shields. You can teleport them into vital rooms like mind control or shields to give yourself a window to barrage. A well timed emp bomb on the flagships shields for example lets you rain all your lasers and rockets for a short period of time without having to worry about shields.
One thing I learned the hard way is to never kill off all of the crewmembers on the flagship. If you do that then a very aggressive AI takes over. The ship will become way more self-sufficient and aggressive, making it much harder.I swear I'm trying my best

Mad Max looks super fun, kind of like a Post-Apocalyptic version of Shadow of Mordor, which was a fantastic game. I don't know if i'll get it at full price but it's definitely on my wishlist now, it looks great imo.I swear I'm trying my best

I play it on and off. It's rather nice.
I personally love it, it reminds me of FTL quite a bit as far as the feel of the game goes. It's hard but highly enjoyable. However there's a lot of RNG; I don't like how the enemy mobs getting lucky crits and lucky stun/blight/bleed resistances can turn the tide of the fight (not to mention the dungeon run) around. I feel punished by means out of my control for no reason at all sometimes.I swear I'm trying my best

I'm super hyped for Mass Effect: Andromeda, that game series is easily one of my favourite of all time.In post 2454, Brandi wrote:Any of you been watching E3?
Battlefield 1 has peaked my interest, but I'm remaining sceptical. The fact France won't be a faction at launch is a red flag for me, both for historical accuracy sake and because I suspect DLC bullshit, cause EA.I swear I'm trying my best
