Ugh already got that with the golden potato. Then they threw in Portal 2 after I had already bought it.
>>
>>322380339
wait what
i tried doing that, but either i am using the wrong search bar or it just doesnt work
>>
>>322381358
You just type SEARCH and hit enter on the screen.
Gotta do it in the browser though, not via the client.

thanks fa.m. but i got that badge, but i have no idea what to do with it? do i somehow get free shit?
>>
>>322382037
Not really. It's just 100xp badge to increase steam level. But for every 10 levels in steam level, you get a % increase in chances to get card booster packs. Which in turn can be sold on the market so you can get new games cheaper.
>>
>>322381354
Wait so the fish badge came out years ago? For portal 2?
>>
>>322380339
I'm doing all that but I'm not getting any badges. What am I doing wrong?
>>
So, after typing in the code it just takes me to the search results for SEARCH. Yes, I'm logged in, anyone know what's up?
>>
Logged in, got it. So, is there any other tricks for badges and/or free games?

Also, I have a copy of Payday 2 + Some DLC I got from humble monthly, anyone want to trade for Hurtworld?
>>
>>322380339
It's literally NAMED "Red Herring" you retards what do you think it is? You fucking millenials are a cultural dead end.

Try it again, go to the Ikaruga page on your browser NOT Steam, then type in 1v7531 after the search bar comes up.

Here's what I do

Then it takes me to the search results, with no badge.

Don't type it in the search bar you retard.
Click anywhere on the page, type search and press enter (no caps)
Dialog box should pop up and then you put in the code
>>
>>322382728
Don't use the search bar. Just write it on the screen of the game page without highlighting anything
>>
>>322382728
You go to the page, don't click on anything. Type in search and press enter. Put code in. Don't type search in the search bar.
>>
>>322382728
dont type search in the search bar, just type search
>>
>>322380596
this is fake, right?
>>
>>322382928
considering the badge is red herring, it makes sense it's fake
>>
>>322382928
It's an anonymous user on /v/, it could be complete bullshit or real, there's no way to source it.

>a clue or piece of information which is or is intended to be misleading or distracting
You can't be misleading or distracting if there's nothing to be distracted or misled FROM.

If it really was all a joke then their usage of a "red herring" is inappropriate.

>>322380596
>valve complete
no one wants this
i couldn't even give it away 3 years ago
>>
Wait so how do you make the winter sale 2015 badge?
I doesn't give an option to look at your progress
>>
>>322383643
Go to you Badges page
>>
>>322382189
the rate at which you earn cards has a dreadful cooldown and a diminishing returns vs cards you spend based on increased xp needed.

Long story short, you have to be rich to take advantage of it fully and when you are rich you no longer care about cards, but the popularity it brings (not so much anymore now that theres so many high level steam users)

Diminishing returns kicks in hard at level 50, unless you are really careful with your money, you can probably reach level 100, but then I wouldn't recommend pumping it higher if you are poor.
>>
Doing this doesn't give me the badge, done it several times now.

It's the top one by default.

Well holy fuck it works

>>322384829

What reward? I mean, is this some seasonal special event or something?
>>
>>322384769
The achievement was found by following those clues.
>>
>>322384927
The wrong ones, retard.
The red herring clues distracted from the real clues.

How the fuck did you find this?

Why Ikaruga, and why is 1v7531 the code

golden potato is the ARG from Portal 2, from before it was announced obviously.
