that's not a problem. it's something related to steam pipe delivery system. steam does a lot of disc work in background after a chunk of download.

I'll never understand how you guys have such strange problems. Been using Steam for 2 years now more or less flawlessly(without many issues)

Re: Steam related discussions
well what mikael_schiffer is complaining is always a issue with steam. they should give an option to opt out of updates for single player games. it ain't a problem for some of us but for those who have pitiable fup limits, it's understandable.
also mikael_schiffer, you may have had better luck with any other games other than valve games, they are notorious for pushing trivial updates.

Re: Steam related discussions
Yeah pretty much a steam noob myself. But did the above and now its done.
Add me people. My id is MultiSapman.
And also been wondering about some thing. For example,say Remember Me is 59.99 USD in steam. Its 999 here on flipkart(Yeah I know we get the cheaper version). My question is if I buy the game from steam,do I have to pay the equivalent amount of 59.99 USD in rupees? :O Thats quite a lot actually. Well over 3k.
Bit confused about this.

Re: Steam related discussions
^ But that doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I mean we Indians get a cheaper version of the game because of paper/cardboard box and cheaper product manufacturing process etc,but the game itself remains the same. And since steam is an online distribution service, doesn't it make sense for them to offer a game at the equivalent market price/lower than that of that region? They don't have to deal with disc production and distribution etc. Otherwise there is no benefit unless the steam sales occur.
I mean a guy in India can buy a game for Rs.999 in the market and has to pay 3k to get the game from steam? Where's the logic in that? Surely portability doesn't cost an extra 2k Especially when you can buy the Rs.999 version and activate it on steam.

Re: Steam related discussions
What is your point? The game you buy from FK, you can activate on steam and is same compare to the $59.99 games. We get the games cheaper because it is regional pricing. The industry decided that if they sell the game at cheaper price here, it will sell more, if they doesnot reduce the price lets assume 10 guy will buy this game, but when they reduce the price the number of buyer will increase, maybe 100-200. $20 X 100 allways greater than $60 X 10 that is the reason maybe.
Some games like battle.net games, Guild wars 2 doesnot offer regional pricing.
Anyway the prices gradually fall in steam. And they start offering discount after 6-8 months of game release. And in sales the games become cheaper than FK.

Re: Steam related discussions
well if we had separate storefront on steam for India, we could have got subsidized prices like Russian and Brazilian steam stores. sadly we don't. there's no point in buying from steam if our retail prices are lower.. except that many indie games are not available in retail and steam is only choice. hope one day we get a separate store on steam.

Re: Steam related discussions
There will not be any. Because of steam game trade. Everyone will buy game as gift at 1000 Rs and trade it with others @ $40-$50.
