Scumbag practices around early access from devs/publishers.

Here is the current breakdown of pre-order vs Deluxe.

Notice something different? After they ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up and released the standard edition for everyone they simply changed the image to reflect their ♥♥♥♥ up. Sorry devs/publishers, but you've missold the Deluxe edition as having an early access perk to everyone who purchased it.

It's a shame because I do like the game, this is just a big fat L from them and a spit in the face of everyone who purchased the deluxe edition to play early.

EDIT: Even this post from yesterday reinforces this gigantic administrative ♥♥♥♥ up. Sort this out.

"Early Unlock is Available Now for Deluxe Edition Players!"

[Bohdan36]

More people are better for PvP mode, right:?))
In any case, if you bought Deluxe, you additionally supported the developer for $10 (regional prices) + received OST and Artbook at once, as is usually the case in games.

It'll keep happening as long as sheep keep forking over their money to be exploited. It isn't a shame, it's the industry we deserve. They're now doing what's expected of them: disrespect the customer. Dispiriting, but not unexpected.

[HybridMemorieZ]

funny thing is i have the standard and the deluxe dlc is show in my game for now lol

[Powellinho.72]

Awful by the publisher

[Wilder]

Yea, in some way that bad, because now i could have saved 10 box, and still play early.

They should give deluxe owners more free stuff for this, some skins.

It is funny, before that most of the Deluxe people were all like "it is not about the access, it is about supporting RTS and getting the banger Soundtrack".

Now this. Now they show their real face. As expected. 😂👌

To all the Deluxe people: Thank you for supporting the RTS genre with your donation and I hope the publisher will give their CEO some nice bonus from it ^^

Anyone spouting that is blowing smoke up their own arse. >Nobody< is buying the deluxe edition to throw money at the publisher or get a soundtrack that's going to be on Youtube.

You're spot on, all that's happened is they've scammed some extra money for the publishers.

I´did buy if for the 7 days, now i think of refund, and buy the normal edition insteaed....or they could make som f.r.e.e s.k.i.n ONLY for deluxe owners, and they should if the where smart.

[Zaxx]

I support this idea even if it came from a mistake. Having to pay 10 bucks to play earlier sucks.

Hell I might pick up this game now with the positive reviews and all. Standard edition of course.

Dont worry, they will sell you some cosmetics down the line.

Maybe they should release some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ though for the Deluxe owners, making the soldiers look like milk cows 😂

[Celery]

I'm happy for everybody else that gets to play early, that's a W for them. But for they really have just stuck the middle finger up to Deluxe buyers, who are likely those who were most hyped for the game.

yea 100%, but i have refunded mine, and will buy the normal edition.

[Molotov]

How do I show people I'm cheap and/or poor? Ah I know, I'll throw shade at people that buy deluxe editions of games they like, perfect

[Psyclops]

I mean, just look at the absolutely ♥♥♥♥ graphics in some parts of of the game! I will wait for this thing to be on sale @ 75% off.

You've not understood this post at all.

I'm actually arguing FOR Deluxe buyers who have been scammed by the publishers.
