False report. The bonus only applies to the first purchase. My mistake.

I feel bad for no one that purchases fake money to buy things in a game. You've created the bane of gaming's existence, and fucked over everyone in the process.

 

[RoboFu]

Selling fake money a scam? nooooooo....

 

[ReBurn]

If only we weren't forced to buy it.

I'm assuming it's a one time bonus that has already been used, but game doesn't recognize that until it's clicked.

EA killed this game for me when they changed the anticheat. For a company generally failing, they're doubling down pushing customers away.

Isnt it a red flag that even without the bonus coins being messed up that the prices are cheaper if you buy the cheapest one multiple times instead of a big pack?

Not only do you buy fewer pts so you dont overload on it, but it'll be pennies cheaper too.

If people are dumb enough to pay, there is a business to make.

 

[diffusionx]

this should be illegal and whoever did it should be prosecuted

No doubt someone wil say it's a "bug"

This seems like a problem with steam? It looks like the first time purchase bonus eligibility isn't properly detected on steam until you actually have it connect to the purchase system.

Thats not EA, that's Respawn's fault and they've butchered this game to no end.

It amounts to a shit UI. Will people not notice, yeah. Should they probably change it, yeah. But it's not like the purchase page doesn't show what you are getting.

I overlooked it, you're right, it's only for the first time. It's strange that the bonus is still displayed.

I guess they didnt want to code it so anyone who already used the bonus offer gets the default purchase screen.

It's really no different than seeing a Costco bonus offer on the home page, but it only applies to new sign ups. Perhaps they can code it so when you log in, the bonus offer banner disappears if you already did it. But it's static for everyone.
