Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
A topic where to drop your card wishes. Best if stickied.
I am currently looking for L4D cards and willing to trade HL2 or any other cards i might come across for L4D ones.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
Can you actually do something with the cards, purchase things or so?
Haven't bothered to look into it, only noticed that there are cards to be collected.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
I don't really understand how this thing works. So you play game X and you gain trading cards from doing so? Do I gain cards for just owning these games already and having played them before? Do I trade the cards for money? What are booster packs? I am extremely confused.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
You get cards for playing the games. It's not retroactive to games you already played. For Serious Sam, at least, I seemed to get cards when I unlocked achievements. But considering Peltz has L4D cards, I doubt that's the only way. It may be some sort of trigger. You can buy/sell cards in Steam. Looks like most cards are going for ~ 40 cents. If you go into your inventory, click a card, and go to the trade or sell or whatever option, you can see the price and the interface to put it on the market. Other than that, I don't know. I have a total of 3 football manager cards if anyone wants to trade.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
For now you get cards simply by playing the game, it's on random time trigger. So basically when you go watch tv just leave the game on idle and come back later to see if the cards have dropped. Each set of cards can be collected 5 times. This means that your badge can be upgraded to level 5. Even the summer sale one. You get half the cards by playing, the other half by trading for the first set. After completing the set and crafting the badge, the in-game drops do not reset, from this point on its trade only. Except for free to play games, they follow a different formula. There is no point in trying to collect every game set at once. Pick a few games and trade cards from other game sets for them. Or just buy them. For me it seems that this entire card game is just a method to get users accustomed to the marketplace. Anyways check the official FAQ. Its in one of my previous posts.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
As stated in the other topic:
let me know if you can do something with my summer sale cards.
(btw i got a 'foil' card, which seems it's more valuable, cool)

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
I'm still interested in trading cards. Even if you plan on selling them on the market please do consider at least trading with ck community first. Thanks.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
What would you trade your cards for?
I have cards of course and a few games (X-coms and Omerta city of gangsters) plus a discount for hamiltons adventures 90% off.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
I dunno. Do I have any cards you want? I presume they're browseable.

Re: Steam Card Trading, vol. 1
I've gotten a few trading cards but I usually just stell them off on the market place....30 cents isn't exactly a fortune but it's not nothing either, especially if you're only buying a 2-5 euro game on a discount.
