Thanks to Rad86 for this thread on our forums: click

And in my country, Poland and also e.g. Hungary we pay 11,24€ and the full price is 14,99€

think am rly loosing it

maybe there was sum1 already talking about it, for that case, i apologize

    OMG, an announcement because of a price difference of 2,25€ !? LOL
    I agree with somebody and dagla, also I’m fine with that price and I already bought Killing Floor for 13,49€

    Even a price difference of 1€ is still a difference.

    Let me see if I got this right. They put lower prices in some countries with VAT, but they put the same high price as before for Norway with 0% VAT. I am happy for the people that got lower prices but this still stinks.

    They obviously have the possibility to put different prices for countries in Europe, but they have no problem acting like idiots and get some extra money trough the “magic Valve VAT”.

    Well one less game on my list of interest, I see no point in supporting devs that act this way.

    I didnt ask for announcement on the main page.. but I guess stranded made it cuz this is probably just a beginning of different prices for each EU country.. now its only 2,25 .. we’ll see what is coming.

    UK price is ÂŁ11.24

    Relax guys, this is a discussion about pricing. Topic starter just made a note about it and asked your opinion. Nothing bad about it.

    I can confirm its 14,99€/11,24€ for Estonia as well. Could someone please tell what the UK price is?

    This should be looked at as a positive thing.

    They use different prices, because the retail stores are also using lower prices in these regions, simply because people can’t afford to buy $50-$60 games here. New games are usually released at $35-40 here in Hungary, except the EA and blizzard titles, they are confident with the higher prices, because many people buy WoW, FIFA and valve games for the multiplayer part at any price.
    It’s very kind from Tripwire to give us this reduced price after they release the game at a relatively low price. Definitely buying, and I wish other games were released like this on Steam in the future, so I could expand my list of original games more with quality products.

    Goddamn, West-Europe pays a little more (I’m from West-Europe), SO WHAT? Pyro Gourmand: are you the biggest retard alive? “ZOMG €2,25 more! Anarchy! Chaos! Let’s kill them all”. I don’t think that 4 sales will make that much difference. West-Europe is richer than East-Europe, that’s the truth. I really don’t care how much I pay for a game, as long as it’s great, and Tripwire is known for adding content after release.

    If it’s true, Tripwire Interactive just lost 4 Killing Floor buyers :D

    Everytime I see such disregard, I think about sailing the baltic sea…

    please verify this, I can only use the ?cc= command (don’t know how use a proxy), thanks =)
