ARMA III is 40% off. Not a bad deal...

[–]Ryan_H 3 ポイント4 ポイント

It is also free for the weekend!

[–]ThrownOut2013 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Finally pushed me to purchase it. I'm definitely gonna be hitting up some Breaking Point and Battle Royale myself.

I just bought it yesterday on gamesell :(.

[–]Hicks_206Producer 33 ポイント34 ポイント

All of BI's titles are on a very brief sale I believe, because of today being the 15 year anniversary of the studio.

(Hence 15%)

Cant wait for another 85 Years ;)

[–]CommissarTom 12 ポイント13 ポイント

I've got nothing wrong with a 15% sale. I'm not going to rage that I, "lost out" on $4.50....I literally bought Europa Universalis IV at full price moments before it went on a massive sale.

I get the 15 year anniversary and I think it's a nice touch, but I thought there was a strong suggestion there would be no discount until after Alpha? Something like Rocket saying there wouldn't be one because they have enough Alpha testers? I may be wrong and I look forward to an answer.

I'm guessing your referring to his responses in his AMA.

From what I can see, he's keeping to his word.

He said it wouldn't happen for several months, and he said it 3 months ago.

"several ˈsɛv(ə)r(ə)l/Submit determiner & pronoun 1. more than two but not many"

Checks out!

That word annoys me so much. It clearly has a root word "seven" but means nothing close to it. Fucking stupid.

It's from Latin - separ / separalis - separate, different.

Bohemia owns Day Z, Dean Hall does not. I'm sure he has a voice, but they are a business, and if they think a 15% sale is going to help their bottom line, then they have every right to put it on sale.

[–]MonkeySafari 6 ポイント7 ポイント

Deans Birthday AND 15 year anniversary? you guys must be drunk all week xD

[–]Arsenic13 -1 ポイント0 ポイント

Honestly, I'm sorry you even have to justify a sale to some of the people here declaring that they've been cheated by you.

[–]cylinderdz [score hidden]

I don't.

This is questionable. Its never a reason to be unpleasant or offensive. But to put an early access game which is not released on sale, is very questionable.

You need to release a game before you put it on sale. This early access is getting beyond a joke. Queue BI astroturf account replies....

[–]Zatoichi5 [score hidden]

Plenty of Early Access games on sale.

Aren't they effectively 'on sale' when you buy them anyway? Since most of them offer a lower price to get into Alpha, and then convert to full price at release.

[–]adog12341 [score hidden]

Who says you need to fully release a game before you have a sale? Did the almighty game gods put that in their 5th amendment of the Bill of Game Right? Boo-Hoo, you paid $4.50 more than some people, get over it.

[–]Fargin -2 ポイント-1 ポイント

Congratulations Hicks et al.

After 15 years BI looks stronger than ever!

[–]bbbbaconstripsFriendly In Cherno 13 ポイント14 ポイント

That is really bizarre. I assumed it wouldn't go on sale till at least after beta.

"Do not buy the game, it's a terrible mess ! But here is a 15% discount, I hope this doesn't make you want to buy our broken game"

All Bohemia games are on sale. 15 year anniversary. Arma 3 is free for the weekend.

[–]Itriedtoplaydayz -5 ポイント-4 ポイント

Agreed. This is starting to feel like a game that just had an incredibly rocky launch and now they're slowly fixing it.

[–]Arsenic13 5 ポイント6 ポイント

Some of the comments in here are a fucking trainwreck. Some of you are crying foul, as if you were scammed, cheated, and robbed, over a $4.50 off sale? Pathetic.

[–]cylinderdz 2 ポイント3 ポイント

I don't feel robbed, but I do find it questionable to put a non complete game on sale.

[–]robertzon [score hidden]

DayZ developers had no say in this, Bohemia added all their games on sale, once again the lazy side of this subreddit never bothers to actually read

[–]Arsenic13 [score hidden]

So you must really object to a non-complete game being sold in the first place for a higher price?

[–]cylinderdz [score hidden]

Where did I remotely suggest that?

This is like, I can't fault what you have said, so I will try and suggest what you're actually not saying in the hope that you might be foolish enough to take bate.

[–]Arsenic13 [score hidden]

Why do you have a problem with an incomplete game being sold at a price lower than it normally is, for a temporary amount of time?

It's not a suggestion, it's just odd that you have an issue with the game being on a small sale, but not being sold to begin with. How is a lower price offensive?

[–]cylinderdz [score hidden]

I would rather not debate early access, but I find both questionable.

If you want a soft launch, and a niche audience, don't fucking release on the worlds biggest content delivery platform and have 15% sales.

If you don't understand that, your straight up fanboying.

[–]yourunconscious(Chef Stevesy/Mr. Feeney) 7 ポイント8 ポイント

I originally heard dean say that he didn't want any more sales (upon being prompted on the success of the game's sales so far) because they got enough alpha testers and wanted people to buy the game when it was finished (and more expensive). So it makes no sense to me why they would put it on sale...

[–]Ghost4000 3 ポイント4 ポイント

It's an overall sale for all BI games.

[–]kickazzgoalie 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Got to get more money! So that they can continue to NOT develop the game and look like shit.

[–]uprope 5 ポイント6 ポイント

The game is about 15 percent done.

[–]smashT 3 ポイント4 ポイント

Kick in the teeth to everyone who bought in early under the assumption it was already a heavily discounted price and that it would only increase as development progressed through release.

[–]Tranqui1 0 ポイント1 ポイント

I'm feeling a bit cheated at the moment. Especially considering the lacklustre content of late. Yea.... cheated is the right word...

[–]CaniborrowafeeIing༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ give bicycle [score hidden]

And how do you feel on every other product youve purchased in your life when it SUDDENLY after 5months goes down in price?? Seriously, stop dramatizing, its 1 day discount, if you played alot of hours you got some great value already of the game. And if you didnt then why the hell did you buy it at release.

[–]Arsenic13 -1 ポイント0 ポイント

It's only four dollars and fifty cents off. Seriously?

Sure it does, it's BIS' 15th anniversary.

And arma 2 combined operations is only 4 euro now. A good chance to get into the mod if you haven't had a chance to play it yet.

When does the sale end? Can't buy ARMA3 at the moment but definitely want to within the next 3 days

[–]leonopolis [score hidden]

Sale ends May 19th, so you should be fine.

      Yes, that is what i'm saying. Do you think it's reasonable to put a game that's in alpha on sale, after saying it wouldn't be on sale until way closer to release at the very least?

      [–]Jedigasm -1 ポイント0 ポイント

      OH NO!!! We lost the chance to save $4.50!!! THE WORLD IS GONNA END!

      [–]gibonez [score hidden]

      That is not the point.

      The point is they lied they said the price would not come down and that early supporters would get the best price while the game was still in development.

      [–]synx07 [score hidden]

      That's what Dean said. But Dean doesn't control how much something costs. And like many others have said, It's a company wide sale, not just DayZ. I don't understand why people would be upset about something so trivial as a SMALL sale due to the company celebrating years of work. It's just such a ridiculous thing to get pissed about.

      Can I be one of the minority in these comments and just say, Happy Birthday Bohemia!

      Conspiracy Keanu:

      DayZ source code leaked (at least partially) and now DayZ is on sale to encourage cheaters to buy plenty of copies so they can use them with future hacks that will be created.

      [–]CommissarTom 4 ポイント5 ポイント

      $4.50 off? Were you here for the mod? Hackers would buy copies of Arma II from their buddies for a price cheaper than a lollipop.

      [–]calabam 1 ポイント2 ポイント

      Says its a free weekend on arma III anybody know when its start wouldnt mind seeing how it runs?

      [–]narchy 1 ポイント2 ポイント

      Ooh! Might buy it for a mate who has been debating whether or not to get it.

      [–]FullMetalJamesIts December somewhere 0 ポイント1 ポイント

      Definitely odd but not unreasonable. 4.50 off, bought it at release so that's 1.10 per month. The marketing team of Bohemia was definitely scared at release so they charged more than needed. $25 should have been the original price.

      Won't be surprised when this gets blown out of proportion though.

      LOL, comment graveyard.

      Folks find a way to complain about the game being cheaper.
