Meh. The card beta has fucked up steam prematurely so they kind of have to unfuck steam before the summer sale as steam sales tend to fuck everything up. :p

Constant disconnects, community is slower than usual, they barely got trading fixed again, the store timetraveled, global stats was down for 3 days, etc etc etc.

And those are just the most obvious ones. Steam has never been able to handle any major feature addition/sale without tons of problems popping up.

The sad moment when you only buy games when they are at least 75% off and you already have all the game that can go on 75% discount. No happy sale for me. :(

But I want to feel the joy of acquiring new games, even if I don't play them more than 5 minutes. D:

5 minutes is your threshold? That's a lot higher than my 1 second threshold...

Slow PC problems: I can't even open/close a game within 1 second. :(

I know the feeling. I haven't bought a single game during last christmas sale. But then, with my current library I could probably manage without buying anything for 2 or 3 years.
Of course, with all those bundles flying around, It's not going to happen until I have a job.
On the second hand, I still have 104 positions on my wishlist :P

Stock up on trading cards.

Depends on how it shakes out. If having more cards or levels proves to be a good thing, then yeah, stocking up is wise. If summer sale just highlights certain games with cards then best to liquidate ahead of the sale, especially certain games.

I'm hoping the trend is toward the former though, as that would be much more interesting and in some ways be a little bit like the previous treasure hunt and summer camp activities.

I know it probably won't happen but I'm really hoping for some treasure hunt and prizes (games) we could win.

I highly doubt anything like that is going to happen. People always feel the need to exploit such things for their own benefit.

Agreed. This summer sale will definitely focus on trading cards. Maybe a different featured trading card game on 75 percent off every few hours like with that voting thing they've taken a liking to?

I actually think that there will be something like that and it will focus on the steam trading cards.

Calling out is saying a user is making a fake giveaway or something else against the rules.

I hope soon. My brother just got his first computer that is worth playing games with, and it's just been his birthday. He knows his present will be belated but if I can get him a bunch of games for cheap instead of one xbox game... well, I'll look pretty awesome.

Imagine how much games you can buy on steam, instead of 1 PS4 or Xbox One game....
