Will you be buying this bundle? Which tier?
Remarkable in that I think this is the fastest an AAA title has hit the SG bundle list?
And Borderlands:TPS joining it, too. They threw a lot of pricey games into this one.

As already discussed up-thread, the current discount for buying Tier 3 is 95.16% off. It will rise when more games are added next week.

I have bought tier $1 in order to lock the average and I want to buy one more because I plan to buy 2 BTA or Tier 3... But my second purchase got cancelled because 'limited quantity bla bla' .
Is there a way to bypass this? Wait a week or use different payment method or buy as a gift?

In order to buy multiple copies, you need to use a different payment method for each purchase.
That can include separate Paypal accounts or the same Paypal account with a different default email address.

I've always used card then paypal. I once used amazon for a third to buy it for my niece too.
Comment has been collapsed.
Then add and verify a second email to your Paypal account and make it the default. Then pay for the second bundle using that new email. See if it works.

I don't know. I was just offering a possible solution. It's up to you to decide whether to try it or not.
Comment has been collapsed.
It depends on the bundle. The publisher decides if they want to limit the number of bundles people can buy, to discourage resellers.
When the publisher doesn't care, then the default is usually 2-4 bundles. In this case, it's one bundle per payment method.

The BTA is really not as attractive as it might appear to be at first:
Civilization V - Most people have the base already and the DLC is necessary to get the proper experience.
Mafia II: Director's Cut - While it seems like a DLC upgrade, you lose critical in-game music from the older version.
NBA 2K16 - The worst rated of all the existing NBA games, with a long -- and some say boring -- cinematic backstory.
I decided to just lock the BTA by paying a dollar, and need to see what they add next week to know if it's worth it.

Thought about tier 3, then looked up the Digital Deluxe version of Battleborn and realized there is no upgrade to get the Digital Deluxe extras DLC.
Along with the game and Season Pass, you get:
-“Cyber” character skin for Oscar Mike, Miko, Caldarius, Phoebe, and Orendi
-3 Legendary Gear packs
-Golden pedestal during character select
-Golden Battleborn logo on title screen
Nothing much, but something that collectors, like myself may want to think about. I ended up just going over to CDKeys and buying the Deluxe, before it ends up F2P. There is a sub for an upgrade, but it isn't active on Steam and I'm not seeing it available anywhere.
You can still buy the BattleBorn Pre-Order: Firstborn Pack at various sites, including $.56 at G2A and a little over a $1 at Kinguin. This is, "golden hero skins for Thorn, Reyna, Montana, Marquis, and Rath."
Again, not much, but I collect, so it is important to me and some others.

This is probably their last "let's get some money" try, and in two weeks they'll announce going F2P, pissing off everyone who bought bundle XD
Or maybe a month, since maybe Humble does returns, so they'll want to make sure nobody will return it?

Mafia II comes with 2 keys? or 1 key for the whole "deluxe eddition"
Comment has been collapsed.
I see they've finally fixed the Mafia II title and description to fit the "Director's Cut" Edition... Any official word on their side or did they just silently wipe out the mess? Kind of shady not to give any explanation about what happened, or if they are going to compensate early buyers for the misleading...
Comment has been collapsed.
I sent HB email about the wrong description. They corrected it next day and this is their reply:
We've confirmed with 2K that they intentionally sent us Mafia II Director's Cut keys and not Digital Deluxe Edition keys. This was a miscommunication on our part. We've corrected the title and description on the site to reflect what is actually being sent out. I'm terribly sorry for any disappointment this may cause.

I guess there won't be any compensation - we will see next week. Would be nice if they give key for "Made Man DLC" that I think adds the Deluxe Edition content to Mafia II ?
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet. But as someone who bought the bundle and activated the Directors cut, when I view the mislabeled giveaways for the Deluxe it shows it as existing in my account. So for the moment anyone who marks it as received probably won't have an issue with sgtools.
Comment has been collapsed.
I can't be certain about sgtools. I still wouldn't be making giveaways for it till the Directors Cut is added or just choose the base game.
Comment has been collapsed.
Was not planning on it, but I am waiting for the in-flooding of posts on it.

There is no problem with the Deluxe version.
The only App-difference between regular Mafia II and Deluxe Edition is that the Deluxe contains "Made Man DLC". And SG or SGTools are not able to see does someone own "Made Man DLC" (as is the case with most other DLC). As a matter of fact, the way that DLC is configured: 'No Price' and not visible in Steam Store - SG/SGTools are not aware of that DLC at all - it's like it doesn't exist to them.
That's why if you own Mafia II basegame, SG/SGTools assumes that you also own Deluxe version even if you really don't.
--
Director's Cut version is different case. SG/SGTools are aware of the existence of some of the DLC's included like "Jimmy's Vendetta" - they are buyable separately and visible in Steam Store. But again it's not possible to check does someone own them or not - because most of the DLCs don't show up in your public Steam library listing - only in private.
So if Director's Cut sub gets added to SG, then every giveaway of it will have the problem of users entering who may already own the DLCs included. But that's just how it is with almost every GOTY and Deluxe versions of other games too.

I am owning those Mafia II DLCs or Not ?

Also if I go to those 4 DLC store pages, it doesn't show that I already have them.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, you own them, but it won't show in the store because the app ids have been changed.
Comment has been collapsed.
I was about to post the same information this evening. It s-u-c-k-s when you own something in your Steam library, but it's not shown as "owned" in the Steam store (I remember it also happens with Painkiller: Black Edition). Kudos to the person who has to manage 2K games on Steam, it must not be easy to deal with 84 packages and 52 depots for a single game.
Comment has been collapsed.
Same with Saints row iv century edition. I bought saints row then century edition upgrade (both from steam on same day) and it shows I don't have century edition in steam store page. Also same with Saints Row: The Third - The Full Package.. It shows I don't have season pass even if I have everything in the season pass. Also Borderlands 2 GOTY contains all dlcs from season pass plus 4 more dlcs but it doesn't show that you have season pass. It's like they would add something new in the season pass in the future, but they won't add anything new. It's just a way to rip off people by buying something useless. Borderlands 2 30 EURO (Borderlands 2 GOTY = 45 EURO (Base game+season pass+4dlcs), Season Pass 30 EURO

well, decided to chip in for T2 all things considered

CV = Contribution Value = those are the points in $ value you get towards your overall level on SG (contribution level)
CV is calculated as 0.15 or 15% of the TOTAL retail value of the bundle or the game. Free games do NOT count towards CV and are deducted from the Contribution Value.
A game is considered "bundled" on SG if the sale price or the price of the bundle is 95% off or more of the combined total retail of the games.
If you have any question about how the CV works, please read the FAQ for more questions and answers on CV value/level, beginning with the header "What are levels, and how can I increase my level?"

If Mafia II activates with 7 DLCs isn't it a Complete Pack then? That pack is apparently game plus 7 DLCs while Director's Cut seems to be a game plus only 4 DLCs, not 7. Strangely, DC includes The Betrayal of Jimmy and CP doesn't. Quite distracting.
Comment has been collapsed.
No, the Director's Cut includes 7 DLC (3 big/story DLC and 4 small/style DLC).
The Complete Pack, if it existed, would have to be the Director's Cut plus the Digital Deluxe Edition (which has just one small/style DLC but it can't be bough separately).

Q+A:
Q1: If I wait to buy the bundle, will the BTA Price go up? (Tier 2)
A: YES, the BTA price WILL INCREASE. This is because as people pay MORE than the BTA price to buy Tier 2 or higher, they BTA INCREASES as time goes on.
The BTA does NOT* go down
Q2: What is "increase your order"?
A: This is "increase your order"
Q3: What is locking the BTA?
A: Locking the BTA means that at the time of purchase, whatever the BTA price is at that time (i.e. Let's say its $5.50), this will be your BTA price forever. Simply buy Tier 1 of the bundle for $1, and if you want to increase your order in the future, you will only have to pay the difference between $1 and $5.50 + $0.01, meaning if you want the games in the BTA tier, you will pay only $4.51, even if the current BTA price on the bundle page is $6, for example (the BTA price changes depending on the AVERAGE $$x that people are buying the bundle at. The BTA fluctuates, and usually increases over time as more people pay higher prices for the bundle).
Q4: What is "Pay more than the average vs. Pay $XX or more"?
A: This is "Pay more than the average vs. Pay $XX or more"
