Black Friday

With so many triple a titles being 1/2 off for black friday I figured this game would be completely free or at least 90% off but I see no discount whatsoever. What gives..

We already have the game discounted at $29.99. We are a small team so if we discount the game further, we aren't helping our case.

Sony and Microsft take 30% of every transaction so for one purchase our team receives $21.

A lot of people want the game to advance but if we give it away for free, how can we grow our team to advance it?

Re: Black Friday

It's a limited time sale not a permanent price change. I would think getting as many people to play it at this point would be the priority considering the game has been out for a few months now. Not sure how realistic a big sales surge out of nowhere is. Even with christmas right around the corner it would still be a limited time sale.

Re: Black Friday

Even if they gave it away for free or 90% off they still wouldn't make any money or barely any. And if you want the game to grow you should support the product by paying for it in my opinion. These guys don't really get any extra money from the sales anyway. Last I heard I believe the money they made from the last game ALL WENT BACK INTO THE GAME. So yeah there was nothing extra. And I'm sure they have families to support as well as themselves.

Re: Black Friday

We also do not have the mainstream mass appeal where a lot of people are sitting on the fence to purchase when there is a price drop. Of course, there will be a couple like the original poster. But it won't be enough to move the needle, we're in the niche market of indie sports games.

There are also regular giveaways on our Twitter - I posted one earlier this morning.

Its already only 30 dollars. How could they make any money to throw into the game ?. Even if it was just a few days how would losing money help them grow?. Its Half the price of Madden and Madden sucks. I enjoy this game more than other football games that charge 60 and copy and paste the same game every year. And I seen a used copy for 20 at gamestop.

Re: Black Friday

A price drop would of been a good way to get people to try the game out that normally wouldn't play a indy sports game. But I understand not being able to do it.
