CV Question (with poll) Regarding Monthly VS Tier3

Closed
d3m4n

I thought until recently that Tier 3 ($14.99+) in humblebundle was excluded from the bundlelist, but now I see a few of mine were retroactively added to that list. Why would the Monthly bundle ($12.00) have all 6-8x of its game count as non-bundle, yet the 1-2x games that come in the 3rd tier that costs even more then monthly are considered bundled?

I am not mad or upset about this, I just want other peoples opinion on this matter. Why does one get a free pass and not the other? Personally could of saved $4 and gotten ~4x the amount of CV, which mathematically or logically speaking makes no sense.

Do you feel the Tier 3 should get full CV since Monthly bundle does?

Yes, I paid more then monthly therefore it should
No, I think the monthly bundled games should also be considered bundled
No, I think that it is perfect as it is currently

they use math.

But, also, sometimes the Tier 3 ends up getting into another bundle or steep discount

i understand that tier3 gets into other bundles or steep discounts, but that is not the case here. and i am not mad about this, i just find it quite strange.

as far as it being done with math, look at that math above.. it is heavily unbalanced math.

okay, i know that. i am talking about "Battleborn" & "Borderlands: Pre-sequel". neither of which have even been 75% off before..

Sleeping Dogs & Sonic Lost world have been in Tier3, and still are considered non-bundled as well.

correction: actually borderlands pre-seq has been exactly 75% off before. but even counting the bundle discounts, i spent more then $3 on either one of them, even including only the difference price between tier 2 and tier 3, the diff being $8, is more then 95% off spent on those 2x games. meaning i only got approx a 90-92% discount when only counting the difference between tiers divided by the two games and not counting the full $15+... that is leaning every possible direction towards the heavier discount and still coming up short of that threshhold.

okay i see. thank you for clarifying. i would not say that is quite so straightforward when you think about the $8 tier2 vs $15 tier3 price difference being you spent $7 for just the two games. but i see just including all even the $1 tier does make the overall discount rate the 95% so in those regards it makes sense. my math was correct'ish (for off the top of my head), but not when including the full bundle.

next time spend less and gain more.. lame, but noted... :S
