Valve expects to sell 1 million Steam Controllers by early 2017, will allow configs for other controllers

I really wish they'd make it work properly when you're trying to play local coop and have more than 1 steam controller plugged in.

It sort of works but lately it keeps freaking out and closing the game to ask which bindings to use over and over.

And it still has no support for other local players earning their own achievements even though the controller has been bound to their specific steam account.

Quoting: WorMzySorry if this is covered in the podcast, but picking a Valve game for 'episode 3', conscious choice y/n? :P
It was made as it was a game we could all play together and give our impressions on. Something we have all found is that our Steam libraries for games is quite different between each of hosts. So we look for games we all have so we can give our impressions of them.
*joke flies over head*

:P
Yeaaah you missed the HL3 reference Matt lol :P.

I wish this were our clever scheme to leak the confirmation of HL3. But sadly we are nowhere near that organized, and also the game doesn't exist. Which is probably the bigger issue with that plan.

.... Or does it? :whistle:

I'm looking forward to this, I hope that monsters will actually pose a threat to colonies. As it stands you could make a colony out of mud and even the biggest gribbly wouldn't be able to get in and hurt anybody. I would love them to fix it on SteamOS, it's the only game I can't play on my Steam box and it's been broken for ages.

Quoting: z1lt0idNice - looking forward to listening to it. Interesting you didn't give an option to download an ogg version of your podcast though in the spirit of open source.
We will do an ogg version along side in the future. This time the 'cast ended up a lot longer than we were intending, so the editing took longer and its a few days late to be online because of that. But we will at least do it next time, were still finding our feet with it all xP. I'll do the ogg export for this one too and send it over to Matt so he receives it later today.
