Not that there really is that much in common between the two, other than multiple people trying to not get killed by zombies by shooting them, and the boomer. The themes, feel, and overall game play are pretty different.

If you played in the beta KF2 might not show up on the Steam front page because Steam considers the game already in your library. :downs:

Gentleman, it has been a pleasure. Soon we will all die from our hearts exploding from the excitement.

Even if not for the fact I like DJ Skully, and 3D Glasses, the fancy edition would be worth it because of the cool soundtrack and "Not a loving joke" sized art gallery (Unless "over 200 images!" counts the amount of zeds in one screenshot as individual images or something bonkers). The freebie copy of KF1 is also nice because it is easy to forget it still costs :10bux: :10bux: when it's not having one of it's countless 90% off sales.

Yes it's an old game, but that's still a game that costs twice as much as the price difference between normal and fancy KF2 purchase all by itself if you didn't happen to have it yet and wanted to see what the old one was like.

How do these six packs work? I bought it as a gift and added it to my inventory. Do I have to add the six pack to my library before I can start giving copies to people? I've never bought a multi-pack on Steam before. I want to give Killing Floor to my friends.

It used to be that you couldn't even buy multi-packs as gifts. I believe activating it should give you the game plus five extra copies in your inventory.

For people in the beta, Steam store is telling me that I won't be geting KF1 or 2 becuase I already own them cause I was in the beta. I'm hesitant to pay $40, then try to deal with steam support if poo poo hits the fan. Is it safe?

Oh, right. I totally got that the first try...

Not like I could go insane and buy the Delux edition after anyways. Steam is very strange about this sort of thing and tells you "You already own this! Gift only"

EDIT: Steam support is notorious and I'd hate to use my "One Refund" on rebuying the same game. How exactly do I go about getting the Deluxe edition stuff since I misspurchased the normal edition? Even if I wanted to wastefully throw another 40 bucks at this game, bundle deals like to go "You already own this idiot, you are only allowed to buy this as a gift!"

Also, can you make sure that the Digital Deluxe Edition gives the copy of KF1 as a gift so I can give it to maybe the one or two people in the world that don't already have it? Or was it how Tripwire wanted it to be?

I've never seen a <number>-pack on Steam allowed as a gift, since the way they work is that you get a copy and then <number-1> copies pop up in your inventory. Sort of blows to be honest.

IIRC They will be releasing all of the deluxe edition separately in a bit.

vvv Yeah, it's not the end of the world or anything, just excited. I'm honestly impressed at how fast things are being sorted in general, somebody on the steam forums just commented that I wasn't crazy, that Deluxe upgrade button wasn't there when I last looked all of two minutes prior.

TW have said that all the Deluxe content will be released as regular DLC (at full game launch maybe?), so you should be able to get your hands on everything eventually.

Already sent off that e-mail to Valve. We absolutely intended for it to be a giftable copy.

Also, DDE Upgrade should be in the store page and DDE content should be showing up for people who own it. Restart Steam if you're still having issues!

Hmm, I had the "already own KF2" beta problem thing and went ahead and bought it. It's in my library but will only download 4.6gb instead of the full 9gb. Wouldn't start up when it was finished, so deleted it and went to redownload but it's still only downloading 4.6gb. I'm using a new hard drive, so the beta files are definitely not on here still.

I am sure you thought of this, but would using a VPN or having someone buy it for you? If the latter will work we might be able to work something out

E. Woah thread moves fast.

Having somebody else buy it was how I got KF1. There are how however some games where even that would not work, seemingly dependant on why the game got cut in Germany and the phase of the moon. (Steam is kinda inconsistent in how it enforces that kind of stuff but I don't want to complain too loudly or else they might notice that having Early Access games which have not yet passed by the rating board at all might be extremely problematic. :v:) So I'd like to avoid taking any chances if possible.
