    Show me 3 games that was put on sale the day they were released?

    • Humankind (it hasn't even been released yet, but as far as I've known it, it's been with a 17% discount)
    • Every Minion Masters DLC thus far has been released as free to keep (for a set period of time, of course) since the game was launched

    What are you talking about??? You white knight so hard for BHVR it makes you look silly. None of those games you mentioned fit the criteria for what I'm speaking of. I've already conceded it's ok if it's a global sale. If you really don't see how releasing on sale is dishonest, then as I said nothing else needs to be explained, cause you can't or won't take the time to understand.

  • I don't know how Capcom let them sell this... She looks like a beaten house wife...

  • Honestly, the map was a big reason I was excited to play this chapter...

    Well I did a little digging for you, OP.

    Section 74.05 of the Competition Act states that it's illegal to sell a product above it's advertised price. Nothing about if it can or can't be on sale and when.

    Subsections 74.01(2) and 74.01(3) of the Competition Act "prohibit the making, or the permitting of the making, of any materially false or misleading representation, to the public, as to the ordinary selling price of a product, in any form whatever". Basically, you can't mislead or allow others to mislead the public on the RRP- Regular Retail Price.

    The "ordinary selling price" can be decided in 2 ways. There's the volume test- if the supplier has sold "a substantial volume of the product was sold at that price or a higher price, within a reasonable period of time"- and the time test- where "the product was offered for sale, in good faith, for a substantial period of time at that price or a higher price".

    It has nothing to do with having a product be discounted, only that you cannot sell it above the usual price.

    I'm no expert in Canadian law, so if there's someone who is please do correct me because I'd love to know more, however I don't think it's illegal to have a sale on items put together in a bundle, as has been the case for the entire store, ever.

    Nice try, though.

    You're right. I did not know this was global.

  • Show me 3 games that was put on sale the day they were released? If you really don't see the issues with putting something on sale when it releases then there is no sense in me explaining it to you. That being said this is global. So no harm no foul.

    Say what? Why would they raise the price while it's on sale?

    It's not a sale, all outfits have a global discount of 10%. People are just looking for things to be angry about at this point...

    When the sale ends my dude.


    I was not aware of the global discount. Makes much more sense now. Thanks for letting me know. I don't look for things to be mad about btw. It's a bad practice to put things on sale that you literally just released.

    Scummy or not, they're currently offering full refunds to anyone who purchased those skins. Just refund them.

    I don't buy skins. And that's not the point. It's a bad tactic to use to push sales and if they don't raise the price it's false advertisement which is illegal. I'm assuming they will raise the price. It won't stop me from being annoyed and perturbed about a company I care about using scummy sales tactics.

  • I would also like to add the Claire skins looks ######### terrible. I don't know how Capcom gave the go ahead for this.

    In the mean time, the cashiers are left without a livelihood. Will you be the one to support them financially while they find new jobs (if they can even find new jobs)?

    Fact is, "just quit" isn't so easy when that's your only source of income. So how about, instead, you direct your complaints at the people who are actually responsible?

    Please, don't respond to people like this. It just turns into a flame war instead of something constructive. Just say your peace and move on.

  • Yea, it's inexcusable at this point. When you play victor it's a buggy mess and when you play against him you get no reward for kicking victor. The devs have been making killers for 4 years now (I understand this killer is a bit unique) and they have PBT as well. Gotta say, I'm extremely disappointed with them. You guys can do better. Please be better.
