Could we have a pack with only DLC???

Title says all

Even if it wasn't at as big a discount it would still be better than playing for a game I already own.

I actually find this very odd that the game is cheaper than all the DLC at the moment, and combined is only $2 dearer than the DLC by itself.

Umm, or you could buy the DLC themselves. I mean, it'd be nice to have the DLC in a bundle, but in reality that's not the point of the DLC system. And I think even without a discount, it's still cheaper to buy the 4 separate DLC packs than to buy the discounted bundle ($8 compared to $9.50, US. No idea if you're from outside the states and if so, what the pricing would be.)

Oh yeah, let's screw with the guys who bought KF before and the new ones we give the DLCs almost for free.

I am bumping this. I want to know why new players get the DLC for £1.50 while players who bought the game at full price will have to pay out triple the price and the new players get the game cheaper too.

I know the DLC isn't expensive but its screwing over existing players. I want an answer from the devs even if it is "we want more monies"

I'm not sure I understand the issue, all the DLC's are available stand alone at what should be reasonable prices for the different currencies based on what those currencies were at when the dlc was released.

And at this time there is no discount on the DLC's (least to my knowledge)

Me neither. Are you guys talking about how the bundle is on sale for 66% off?

DLC included with game bundle: £1.50
DLC on its own £4.50

I want to know why you guys are making older players pay more than new ones, many of which are only here for TF2 items.

I know the DLC is optional but my point still stands.

If i wanted to buy the DLC it would cost me 3x more than new players who get everything on sale.

That's my problem, there's a sale on right now and only new players are getting the DLC at a reduced price.

To get the DLC for £4.50 I would be paying nearly as much as new players are getting the base game for which is ridiculous. The base game is going for £5.10 right now so new players only pay 60p more for a full game compared to what I'd be paying for skins.

...Wait, what? Here in the US, the DLCs are the same price in the bundle and alone. I just asked a friend of mine in Greater Britain to check it out too, and he said its the same for him.

Are you complaining because a product's price was reduced and you didnt benefit? That's how holiday sales work, my friend. :S

I think this is asking for a DLC only package. Some may only have Killing Floor, but want to bulk buy the DLC in one go. I just buy them as new ones crop up.

OK Look here

http://i54.tinypic.com/nei4ix.jpg

Game with DLC: £6.61
Game without DLC:£5.10
DLC on its own: £4.45

That means new users are paying £1.51 for the DLC if they buy the bundle compared people who already own the game who have to pay £4.45 which is around triple the price.

What I would like is if people who already own the game could get a DLC only budle for around £2.50 or £3.

I just got the bundle on sale and I still agree with the OP. The OP wants a dlc bundle for 66% off. When you buy the "Killing Floor Complete Pack" you get the DLC for %66 off but when you buy the DLC seperately there is no discount. I think players that bought the game ahead of time should still be able to benefit from the sale ; there is nothing out of line about that request.
