Payday 2 The Starbreeze developer admitted that he “mixed up” when he introduced the Premium subscription service along with the journey at a price of $ 100 by 50%.
Subscription – launched At the beginning of this week – Package “Full access to over 65 DLC, full of seizures, weapons and cosmetics … too low monthly cost” USD 4.99 per month or $ 19.99 in six months. At that time, the company said that it allowed players to “examine the mass library of Payday 2 content at its own pace, mastering the art of robbery at one crime at a time”, and the subscription – available via Steam – can be canceled at any time. “
Now in a statement GamedeveloperThe head of commercial Gustav Nisser, admitted that the developer “dropped the ball into internal coordination and properly communicating with our community.”
“A negative reaction makes sense, and the community explained how the price change and its time look from the outside,” said Nisser. “We agree with the community, we mixed up this and immediately returned the price of the package.”
He continued: “In retrospect, we should be aware of it. Because the package of fees only for items you do not have, and the discount on the package is accumulated with some other discounts (i.e. discounts on the items contained), the actual full price of the package may differ significantly.”
“Heisters – we saw feedback on changing the prices of the infamous collections that took place at the beginning of this month, and we examined,” Starbreeze told players X/Twitter. “Prices have been returned to the place where it should be, and we apologize for this mistake.”
Starbreeze’s Haua also explained Reddit: “I know that nobody will believe me, but it was a mistake. Regardless of this, the damage was caused and we hope that with this adaptation anyone who hoped DLC can do it through the collection.
“We appreciate everyone who marked this problem and talk about it! Continue being you, guys, and we hope that we will be able to regain all trust that could have been lost.”
Quick checking steam.db confirms that the price for the infamous collection has actually been returned nowAlthough it is not clear whether someone who has paid an additional 50% fee in the last few weeks can apply for a difference.
