So now that we all known Helldivers won't be in the winter sale, is it still worth buying the base game for around ~15 eurobucks? The game looks alright enough, it's just that those metric fuckton of DLC packs kind of have me worried. I don't want to get this only to find out I need to shell out 20 more bucks to get the gear required to keep up in later levels

What. How do you know?
>>
>>321088126
The winter sale has started and it's not on sale.
>>
>>321088126

Because there's no discount on the game? Valve stopped with daily / flash sales, everything you see now is exactly what you'll get for the whole duration of the sale
>>
>>321088292
>>321088317

When I looked at the sales, it said that there were 156 games on sale.

Now it says 9939.

So I don't know.
>>
...

Also Assassins Creed wasn't on sale, and now it is.
>>
>>321088292
>The winter sale has started and it's not on sale.
the sale lasts for more than one day m8
>>
>>321088515

Whatever the case, there's still no discount and my question still stands

>>321088685

You're behind the times mate, Steam no longer does daily / flash sales. What you see right now is what you get
>>
>>321088685
Even forgetting the fact that there are no more dailys or flash sales, in the previous sales if something was going to go on sale for a lower price, it would have some sort of discount to start with.
>>
I'm also waiting for a Helldivers sale
I'd like to buy it for me and my friends but I don't want to shell out 80 bucks
>>
I'm not buying shit. It's been out for a year and they couldn't even put a fucking 33% discount on it. They obviously don't want my money

Are you directing this at yourself? They're just highlighting sales. They aren't fucking daily deals
>>
>>321089329
>highlighted
they are just putting new shit on the front page, nothing actually changes.
>>
>>321087747
Yeah the game is great and you can solo lvl 12 difficulty missions without dlc. (but i dont think you can complete the "Kill X enemy" missions alone or the bosses).

In the end the dlcs are not necessary.
>>
>>321089329

> highlighted deals

A highlighted deal doesn't mean they make it cheaper numbskull, it just means they slap it on the frontpage for some extra publicity
>>
>>321089527

I wasn't intending to solo anything anyway, I was more worried about getting kicked from groups because I don't have [Overpowered DLC #X]
>>
>>321089275
I hear yah. I got it when it came out and wanted to get it for my friend, but not if it's not going on sale.
>>
>>321089757
Nah, there's only a couple dlc items that people really use anyway. I've had great success with just the vanilla items.
>>
>>321089628
>>321089520
>>321089486
>thinking they'll have the same deals everyday for the entirety of the sale
they want to sell games and get money, the sale would get pretty stale after at least 5 days if they didn't update the deals once in a while
>>
>>321090092
You're a fucking idiot. They explicitly said the sale prices will not change. What you get day one is what you get on the last day. No new items will go on sale and existing sales will not go lower.
>>
>>321090092

Yet that's exactly what they're doing. I don't know why you're even arguing in this thread when you can just google it and read it for yourself
>>
>>321090219
>They explicitly said the sale prices will not chang
nobody has said anything about anything, valve never reveal anything about their sales everything is just speculations
>>
>>321090092

>From now on, though, there'll be less of a rush. According to an email sent out to those who have content up for sale on Steam, verified by Eurogamer, Valve is doing away with daily deals. Instead, items will remain at a set discount for the entire duration of the sale - meaning it'll no longer be necessary to check back daily to see what's on offer.

>meaning it'll no longer be necessary to check back daily to see what's on offer.

>>321090478

>But the vast majority of your catalog should be running its best discount for the duration of the sale.”
>>
>>321090580
pure speculation
>>
>>321090478
“We’ll still be highlighting your top games on the front page for 24-48 hour spans, but those products will stay at their most competitive discount, before and after being featured.”

“It’s not a major change, but it does make the sale a lot more valuable for customers, and it allows us to build sale features that recommend your product all sale long, instead of just during its front page feature.”

“For a brand new release, if you can’t get approval for your best discount for the full length of the sale, that’s OK and we can work on a plan for that game. But the vast majority of your catalog should be running its best discount for the duration of the sale.”
This is what they said about the new sale system

I'd play this game more if:
>It didn't take 5 minutes to load into a game
>Other people didn't have control over my camera
>>
>>321090819
an email that no one has really read, have you read the email? i haven't
>>
Which of the DLCs are a must have, if at all any. I considered picking up for next to nothing on PS4 but all that DLC really threw me off.
>>
This poor guy going to be really upset when the deals stay the same until January 4th.
>>
>>321090829

>Other people didn't have control over my camera

Wait, what? Does everyone have to be on the same screen? That sounds pretty fucking annoying

>>321090882

Got it, you're just baiting. Thanks for letting us know
>>
>>321090882
Literally 2 minutes in google

"Those dates come from Shacknews, which also suggested that games would get just one sale price for the duration of each event.
Eurogamer can now confirm this, after receiving the notice of this change that Valve sent out to Steam developers and publishers today."

wouldn't be that much of a problem if people learned to use the fucking map which TELLS YOU WHERE THE ENEMIES ARE COMING FROM

I swear, people are fucking handicapped when it comes to any kind of map in any game.

Every multiplayer, niggers can't learn to look at the fucking thing even when enemies are highlighted (and they usually are)
>>
>>321090975
Support pack for the Sickle, easily the best gun in the game, Ranger pack for the UAV that can detect samples. Everything else is just extra shit, some of it's nice but like the main game, most of it's useless.
>>
>>321091290
Agreed. Or when you clear an objective and motherfuckers STILL WANT TO STAND THERE. It's like, lets go guys, we're wasting time/lives/ammo just sitting here shooting at endlessly respawning enemies.
