Maybe its just the regional prices that are their issue? Otherwise I agree I don't understand the issue.
The whole point is that rate based discounts function differently than a flat $ cut discount. Flat 20% discounts are even in every region - 10$ discount in a country with close to normal dollar valuation is different from a 10$ discount with a much higher valuation for the dollar compared to local currency.
Sure, my thoughts were specifically with regard to NA pricing. I thought that was fairly clear, but perhaps not.
That or they didn't really inform the publishers on how the sale worked which has caused them to pull their games after finding out.
Welp, I'm sure this game will be on sale a few more times before launch at $50/20% off. No biggie. Hopefully they get it right next time.
What purpose? Guessing there is a typo there, but i cant figure out what it should be instead :)
Yeah, maybe that could be why.
Maybe things would be different indeed, although i think those who deal with exclusives and actual developement of the store are two different departments. While the company (Epic Games) as a whole have something to say, i'm not sure if its much overlap between those things (as in trying to get exclusives to their store hinders developement of the actual store).
Yes, those are almost certainly different governing bodies. like 99.9%. I'm sure there is some overlap at the executive level, but not much I wouldn't think.
is this a serious reply? please be a troll reply..this is getting ridiculous. DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION is not SOMETHING NEW!!!!
Does this deserve a new thread? Since it's not fully related to BL3
It is if the reason for the dev doing that is Epic's incompetence.
No I think I did a pretty good job of surmising the various incompetent things that Epic have done related to this sale.
Why?
The sale is happening now. Ubisoft games are removed from the store now. Now is the same time as now.
Read my first post earlier in the thread.
He was mistranslated, even Google Translate proves it. Shitty clickbait article.
No explanation but the shopping cart is currently slated for 2020. A lot of things to look forward to.
It was already answered, but for me, the following are features I use and rely on constantly:
Nope. 2k confirmed that they pulled the game, but did not provide any explanation.
So Epic is not responsible for managing the Epic Store Epic Mega Sale?
I wouldn't call it a need. Achievements have never once dictated a purchase either way for me. I don't think I've ever even really paid attention to them except when they're used in a quirky way(like Portal 2, The Part Where He Kills You). To each his own but it seems like kind of a silly thing to prioritize.
You missed the point. Consumers like sales. But consumers don't like it when a game that is currently exclusive to one store, suddenly got taken off the store for an indetermant period of time and not available to anyone. And all because the store was incompetent and both didn't do their jobs at informing the game studios in advance, and have a storefront so badly coded that the only way to be excluded from discount sale is to not sell it at all.
Am i missing something or does he not say that? Is the Google translate shown incorrect?
I had a jolly good time showing someone the difference in chat/messenger features yesterday.
