Really gaijin? Maximizing profit over players yet again?

For a while now, when there have been huge sales, for some reason xbox doesn’t seem to have any discounts, and they are usually on a thing or two, and not gold.I learned somewhere Xbox and gaijin made a deal where there are no discounts when gaijin has it for everyone else, but they keep a lot of the money from those purchases or something along those lines. I do not want to buy a PC just to have the things promised for everyone and yet aren’t, such as these huge discounts purchased out of game, the test servers(you get to buy premiums and gold orders and try them out for free),game mods, and all that other stuff.console has felt just the middle child of enlisted for a while now, and this just feels like they just don’t care about the players. Thanks again gaijin, for not giving a $hit about the players and instead focusing on profit.

Ah - you heard something, or other, from somewhere, not sure what, but you’re sure it means you’re getting ripped off because you don’t like it and it’s extra to take 15th hand hearsay and make conclusions that suit yourself, nad how dare Gaijin make money, etc…

But actually it is Microsoft that control teh terms and conditions of sales for their platforms…

Sounds like just another over entitled dropkick dipstick…

I mean it’s just annoying having to pay $15 for some squads than everyone else is paying and all it is doing is making them tons of money off of us to incentiveize this kind of marketing.

Or you could read the links - sales on Xbox store are decided by Microsoft - for all games.

Try to learn something and improve yourself!

I did, I was just saying I’m tired of it, and it isnt gaijins fault but they aren’t sorry at all, they are probably happy because most if it is going into their pockets for a non reduced rate.it seems almost every other game and the add-ons for them have sales, but this game almost never does

We know that the stores take a very large % of sale money due to various court cases.

And why should Gaijin not be “happy” to make normal profit ffs?? Are you a commie??

Do you often make conclusions based on nothing more than your own self interest?

I mean sure, gaijin is EA games lvl of greed but…

Why don’t you complain about the REAL culprit instead; Microsoft?

No, I’m not a commie, and I understand companies have to profit in some way, but this just feel like a kick in the nuts from gaijin after all the other stuff console dosent have access to, and it is a much larger profit income than it would normally be during these sales, and especially back when they were removing all those old squads when everyone was getting things last minute. And this isn’t for my self intrest, this is for all the Xbox players who haven’t gotten discounts when every other platform has gotten them,ask any other Xbox player on here and ask them.

Well I would, but it wouldent do anything with it being such a big company, and besides what is some idiot squabbling on some barely know games forum going to do to a international billion dollar company. I’m just trying to get to the half that has listened (although by large outcry) to the players of their games to do something.I’m tired of Xbox getting the short end of the stick and I just want gaijin to listen.

Would it make any difference?

They would continue to pull more of these BS maneuvers to get profit at the expense of their “middle child” of the platforms and possibly the other ones as well.

Not sure who you’re replying to (that’s a flaw in the forum, not your issue). When you say “They,” who do you mean? It seems that someone already pointed to discussion indicating that Gaijin does not control sales on XBOX.

So. Why should Gaijin or Darkflow be sorry? What would it change?

I’m trying to say they won’t try to make it able for discounts on Xbox and may try to negotiate something similar with PS and do something similar in the gaijin store.they should be sorry because they are scamming a large number of people that play their game out of 2x the amount everyone else is paying at that moment, and considering the prices of premium squads that’s a whole lot of money.if they were sorry, they might try to work something out or work around Microsoft to get deals to Xbox, but they sit there and think of the opposite, keep the prices high from the platform with a very large playerbase (it was higher than halo infinite for a while in top free) and keep raking in the money and the mostly PC dominated forum won’t give a $hit and just carry on.
