>>322154492
you gotta be logged in and have any javascript blockers disabled. I just did in in Internet Explorer because Comodo was blocking the script fuckery.
>>322154669
>>322154802
Not him, I did it on firefor with adbock enabled and worked just fine
>>322155094
might just be chromium-based browsers then
>>322151124
What am I supposed to be seeing? I enter the password and nothing happens.
Or just go to this link
http://store.steampowered.com/actions/d3708146fc0c5d593
>>322155514
its just a profile badge you get if you are capable of following a simple instruction
which you clearly are not
Well I did all of this and didn't get my badge.
Now everytime i try again to type in SEARCH the box doesn't pop up.
>>322155996
>using a botnet browser for every day use
>>322155174
Can confirm, it didn't work on Waterfox but worked on Chrome.
>>322156574
use chrome and it has to be in ikaruga or w/e
>>322156574
you dont type in the box OP said it wrong. go to the ikaruga page and just type "search" and press "enter" then type the password "1v7531" and press enter
>>322156691
My Waterfox nigga.
>>322152179
"a dried smoked herring, which is turned red by the smoke."
Or use the steam app on a phone or tab or whatever. Worked easily. But is there any more?

>>322156705
This is the guy that posted >>322156574
These didn't work either. I've tried IE and Chrome and they dont work. I have my Steam application open though and I'm logged into that aswell. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks /v/
The box pop up with Baldur's Gate EE
http://store.steampowered.com/app/228280
>>322151124
Which search bar?
The one for my browser or for the store?
>>322157879
Store, has to be in caps too.
I did all this shit in Firefox and I got the box, typed in the numbers, then it went to search results for "SEARCH" and did nothing. No badge,so it really was a red herring
>>322157879
that part is actually confusing, you dont need to type it in the search bar, just be in the in the page, type "search"(without quotes) and press enter, a input box should pop up
>>322157906
Weird, when i typed it in the store search bar and in caps, nothing happened, while it worked with the method i just described
one shitty badge isn't even worth logging in to steam through a browser
>>322157993
Only works on Chromium browsers, it should technically also work on the Steam client since it's Chromium based but it doesn't.
>>322158287
I don't have Chrome installed because fuck google watching more than they need to.
i just got the badge on chrome, so what was the arg related to? HL3 confirmed cancelled?
>>322158505
It's related to nothing, just having a secret badge you'd only get if you solved the ARG, but usual dumb steam didn't think people would share the method
This isn't the solution to the ARG you fucking retards
This is a dead end
It's called red herring because you got fucking misled
Not working on mobile.
>>322159234
>mfw the real solution was waiting until the very last day to craft the badge
>>322158287
I had a friend with Chrome try and jack shit happened, just went to a "NULL" pageThe question is, is this a Steam Red Herring or is this you faggots's red herring?How many of these faggots even know what a red herring is? The only reason I give it any credence is on the off chance that Steam actually put up a fake arg red herring for us
>>322159635
>NULL
ikaruga is a dreamcast game
nulldc is a dreamcast emulator
coincidence???
>>322159594
When the cards cost the most to buy on the market? No thanks.
>>322159789
Nigga that shit was like 6 cents each yesterday. Unless last minute faggots went nuts buying I doubt that. Ragnarok Online's are 20-40 cents each atm since you have to buy time through steam to get them and it has few dlcs
No idea, I just used regular Chrome, went to the Ikaruga page, typed SEARCH in all caps on the Store search box, typed 1v7531 on the box, pressed OK and got it.
If there's a real red herring it's probably the badge itself, as in there could be another one.
>>322159635
was he fucking logged in
>>322159972
meant for
>>322159635
Make sure you're logged in too.
>>322159963
That's exactly what happens faggot.
The problem is that the prices go so low that they all get sold, increasing the price due to demand.
This happens every time.
>>322159635
He needs to be logged in on the browser first before doing it.
>>322160295
But do I sell at 1,13$?
>reddit solve it then tell you what to do and you get some shitty badge
epic ARG guys!
>>322160749
KYS, MM
I find it kinda sad how /v/ or /vg/ are not even trying to solve this arg :(
I guess i'll switch to reddit now
>>322161823
solving things is reddit as fuck
>>322155860
Fuck you for hacking my profile.
....FREE xp?
I just found this embedded in the metadata for one of the steam cards, not sure what to do with this number though.

>>322163759
Won't work for me, just leads me to the search for ''search''
>>322163819
are you retarded? its not over yet.
>>322163759
Wich one of the cards, and in what part od the data
Recommend me a chromium based browser.
>>322164176
just use chrome and stop being a paranoid faggot
>>322164176
Chromium.
>>322163939
i wonder what bullshit will come out of this, if it's really a vr game I'll lmao
Thanks for the free badge OP.
>>322163008
Did that really hack your profile anon?
>>322165229
No, he just doesn't want others to get the badge. That link doesn't work anymore anyway.
>>322163759
might be a hex code
I give up.
All chromium browsers open steam on fucking phone mode so I can't access store pages.
I get the box, I type in the password 1v7531, but I get nothing.
>>322167671
>>322167223
>>322165229
It gives you a Red Herring badge ._.

>>322156813
>>322169972
Firefox is available in official 64-bit versions now, so you can use that instead of being a version behind like Waterfox always is.
>>322169784
It kind of looks like a blurry [WAKE ME UP] skeleton.

A way of valve to let people customize the look of their profiles while also raking in cash and preventing people from having goatse as their background. I wish they would do it with avatars too except make them tied to achievements or something.

It's one of the Shadow of the Colossus game over screens, just really blurry. SotC and Ico confirmed for steam release.

>>322158028
>just be in the in the page, type "search"(without quotes) and press enter, a input box should pop up
That's what worked for me, otherwise it'd always redirect me to search results when I put the password in.

So this is a part of that?
>>322169784
I didnt know there was an ARG going on at all, when did this start?
also I follow the steps but nothing happens after I put in 1v7531, whats the deal?
>>322171521
Use a Blink-based browser like Chromium, Chrome, Opera 15+, etc. Disable any ad blockers.
What's with the red eye icon on some of the games?
Planetside 2 and H1Z1 have it
>>322171795
Do you know what a red herring is?
>>322171786
that is the daybreak games logo, you fucking idiot
>Valve makes shit that doesn't work in the client
Who thought this was a good idea?
>>322171705
Fun thing: I had to actually turn on AdBlock for it to work
>>322151124
Got it, but I had to do it on Internet Explorer instead of Firefox.
>>322171873
Not him, but I don't know, what is it?
its obvious
>>322163139
THAT'S RIGHT
FREE EXP
>>322172219
a false lead or clue
Like if someone robbed a bank and made obvious footprints that are going in the wrong direction
>>322172219
It's something that misleads you from the actual issue. Meaning the ARG is taking the wrong route or something.
>>322172123
Worked for me too, much as I hate to use IE I didn't want to take the time to install chrome even less.
>>322172270
FREE bad rats, for everyone who got the badge
>>322170630
Is that Godzilla?
Any more free shit?
>>322172808
There's some free stuff in the terlet, Scruffy.
I DONE IT WHEN I WASN'T LOGGED IN SO I COULD SEE IF I NEEDED A DIFFERENT BROWSER OR NOT AND NOW IT WONT LET ME DO IT AGAIN
HELP
>>322173531
Use incognito mode
>>322173776
I got it working again, but even though I'm logged in and put the right password in, I'm not getting the badge.
I just want the xp fuck
>>322151124
This ARG is fucking retarded.
You had to figure out there was an ARG to begin with by typing the code bar from the front of the comic on Hitman Code 47 page, not even the new one, no the fucking original game that no one buys.
How you were supposed to know that with only the codebar? Ask around, no one will tell you.
The rest of the clues are even more nonsensical.
The potato sack and Portal ARG made sense.
A stealth update to a popular game, followed by a couple of shady files, and a change to an item sound, a very notorious one I must add.
There was stuff to do and discover. Now we are waiting for Reddit to happen to stumble on the answer which reeks to valve spoon feeding, that or tomorrow's comic update...does anyone give a fuck about the comic? Maybe if it had been out BEFORE CHRISTMAS, we know it is not fucking Half life 3, that much we know.
>>322174409
I got the badge but didn't get the xp
shit's fucked
