Just installed the Beta to try and it looks nicer. Was going through settings and thought I'd clear the cache for a little spruce up and Steam instantly rebooted but now I'm stuck with the new logo spinning and a "Waiting for network...".
The terminal shows...
[2023-04-28 12:18:05] Nothing to do
I've tried various command line parameters when starting but the same. Any ideas how to reset Steam so it'll boot?
EDIT: I don't have the patience for this so I overwrote two folders from backup, deleted the beta file in the package directory and started with "-clearbeta".

I'm just going to add this... I'm very much into Fallout 3. Crashes like hell but I'm spamming quicksave, so it's tolerable. Apart from that, working great via Proton. Worth the price of the bundle on its own!

Quoting: rcritI wonder how well siege will work in single-player.I got the impression they'd be manned by nasties. Presumably the player can also use them when captured (or built?). Anyway, looks good. With the drip rate of new stuff it looks like I'll be playing this game for years to come :happy:

Quoting: GuestOk, thanks for the clarification.Quoting: fabertawein doom eternal you can play doom 1 and 2 inside the main game. not sure about 2016 though, maybe I am mistaken, and only eternal has wads.Quoting: GuestI have Doom 2016 (not installed), so are you saying these are installed in that game's folder? Why would they provide the old WADs?Quoting: fabertaweSeeing as I just got Doom II in the Fanatical bundle, I'll try this out, cheers :smile:if you have the newest doom games (2016, eternal, maybe doom 3 bfg has it), then you have full doom 1-2 wads provided with the game, so you are a legit owner of them already

So I went for the 10 egg bundle and ended up with three games I might eventually play - Fallout 3, Doom II and The Wild Eight (not that I've checked whether they're Proton playable. And I played Doom II back in the day). The top tier game was "Dead Island Definitive Edition", which I already have. Another six I have no interest in.
If anyone wants to swap keys for Dead Island Definitive Edition, Blazing Sails: Pirate Battle Royale, Home Sweet Home, Slime-san, Chess Ultra, oO or Crumble then PM me!
p.s. I love chess but Chess Ultra doesn't even have a top down 2d view, which is the only way I can play on a screen.

Quoting: EschguyIt's tempting, but I wish we could at least look through the pool of potential games...I rarely buy games these days as I have such a backlog and I'm usually playing Valheim anyway but I was intrigued by the "lottery" aspect. They say a fool and his money are soon parted :whistle:

The pet shop was out of kittens for my new bazooka so I've installed this instead. Good clean fun for all the family.

I'm all for options! Personally, I may lower "Death Penalty" and "Raid Rate", otherwise it's business as usual for me. Saying that, my current seed still has Eikthyr undefeated as I don't like any raids. My previous seed has all bosses defeated :wink:
