Will this monthly bundle be yours?
Having been a big fan of L4D2 co-op, Vermintide has been at the top of my wishlist. Will have to scrounge up some dough for this one! \o/

Already own the unlock (again), so no buy for me. Even if I didn't own it, I probably wouldn't have done it anyway...

If these bots are as dumb as the ones in Insurgency, I will definitely pass. :o/

Like left 4 Dead or Payday, this is definitely a highly multiplayer-focused type of game. It's designed around co-operative play with others and team synergy, so playing with bots is just going to be a somewhat neutered experience.

It's worth noting that Vermintide is doing an event until the 25th, where you get a free in-game item every day just from logging in. If you plan on getting the bundle and playing Vermintide, it may be worthwhile to pay early so you can start grabbing that loot every day. It's a great way to get a head start in the game.

I like Vermintide, but I already own it :/
Having the DLCs will be kind of neat but ughhhhhh

So how do these monthly things actually work?
Can't get it because I only have a debit card but do you start with 1 game and then at the end of the month u get a bunch more?
I think I understand it but not 100% sure..:P

I don't know if I have any friends to play that game with (and I heard that the AI friends are quite... useless) but I think I'll still crab this one. December monthly wasn't bad and the price isn't really a problem ^^

Maybe being an annual subscriber wasn't the best idea. Bad unlock for me, and I already had Dark Arisen from this month.

Yeah the monthly bundle isn't really for someone who already has a bunch of games, or buys the good games on sale.
It's more for people who want a handful of good games regularly, but don't buy many.
Comment has been collapsed.
Anyone knows how to get the game right away. I remembered there is a button in the monthly bundle page but i can't find it now :(
Edit: found it. It's in december page (early access button at the top)

i don't buy the 12 month plan but so you hava alreeady bought the bundle technically . Try to see on your purchase page account maybe ?
Comment has been collapsed.
Already found it. Have to go to December Bundle Page. Click on the Early Access button at the top then go to the Download link provided. It does not show in the purchase page >.<

First Grim Dawn & now Vermintide! Please, stop it, Humble Bundle! It's like you're doing this to me on purpose!
Comment has been collapsed.
I pass this one, not interesed in the game as i don't have time to enjoy it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, gonna be skipping this one, don't really care about the early unlock, so not gonna risk it.

Considering you can generate gift links from the Monthly games, I guess this means they stop the one payment address/one pack only policy? I am sure the owners of G2A would be happy then.
Comment has been collapsed.
they have only 1 bundle per 1 account limit only, u can buy multiple from same payment method
Comment has been collapsed.
Even if the accounts have the same payment address/bank card/PayPal account? Usually it is that what sites check.

I am not really keen on Vermintide (haven't pre-activated it).
I know there is a pause option like Rachel mentioned ( https://www.humblebundle.com/user/cancel-subscription ) but is it possible to pause it after the rest of the games are announced on the evening of the 6th?
Comment has been collapsed.
but is it possible to pause it after the rest of the games are announced on the evening of the 6th? or do I just cancel my reoccuring subscription for now?
You can do either. If you wait til the 6th, though, you will have been already charged for the Vermintide/January bundle (and I'm assuming you don't want that game from your comment). You can also pause/cancel it now to skip the January bundle.
Comment has been collapsed.
You can cancel at any time, but if you're hinting towards trying to avoid paying for the January bundle after seeing the revealed games, this possibly won't work since you're already subscribed and they will bill you beforehand.
EDIT: Beaten again. I'm just too slow for the interwebs, it seems... smh

They initially stated the Vermintide + DLC to have a MSRP of $41.97 but that has magically changed to $32.98 since. Did anyone else notice that?
Comment has been collapsed.
Since it was bumped already (thanks FilthySouls!), I'll bump again with a reminder -- if you're planning to unsubscribe or pause, do it now, tomorrow is billing day.
(I'm pausing for a month -- not that interested in Vermintide and my wallet is empty, so the rest of the games will probably all be on my wishlist ;))

Note: Some people may have 10% off coupons for NEW subscribers for the monthly bundle. These coupons will apply to your purchase, and you will pay $10.80 instead of $12.
Does this apply on the first month or does it stay at that price for as long as you don't unsub?
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, if the hidden game selection was not set in stone, I have a feeling they are gonna put some good games out. I`m thinking that many people are opting out this time so it would make sense to make it the best bundle ever to bring back old and bring in new subscribers, and especially to show that the hidden games can be better/more value than the displayed teaser. #mindgames
Comment has been collapsed.
Of course there is a point. Say u dont like Warhammer; u unsub. Friday comes and there is Mafia III, Fallout 4 and I dunno, your most wish listed game. Next time u dont like the teaser, u might stay subbed because u don`t wanna miss out again.
Of course, the choice of games to explain my point is far fetched, but all I`m saying is that it makes the most sense to make the best bundle when the subs are lowest.

You don't get it, I said that speculating the upcoming bundle contents is pointless.
Comment has been collapsed.
How do you know what the historical trends in the subscriber numbers are? Is this published somewhere?
Also, as far as speculation about people not liking the early revealed game goes, that seems like it would be an arbitrary thing as people's tastes vary widely and short of it being a relatively unpopular genre I think you could probably say that about any given month.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have no clue on official statistics, thats why I said " Im thinking that many people are opting out this time" I thought the same when they announced that --Call of Duty: Black Ops III Multiplayer Starter Pack-- was the teaser for it`s respective month. It was the general vibe I got from reading the comments in the HB Monthly thread as well.
I think Stardew Valley for example was a big hit (though not my cup of tea, yet stayed subscribed), according to what I read in the comments so 1 can speculate that online multiplayer games are less desirable. Then again, I think that Rocket League must have been a good month even though it`s an online multiplayer game. I could be entirely wrong about it and I can make the case for that as well.
About peoples varied tastes, yes, I agree, that is a variable that is less easy to speculate with. (Though U could compile the information on the previous bundles that do have the info published.) In addition, one might subscribe still, even when they dont like the teaser. This can also have different reasons, trading, gifting, trying,... Its what I have done with a few of the monthlies myself.
One thing that alters a possible succes in sales is if people already own the teaser or not, yadda yadda yadda... Just speculating, nothing more.
On speculating what game will not be in next bundle, a safe bet would be --Factorio--
Comment has been collapsed.
Well for what it's worth I like multiplayer games but I didn't care for the Black Ops III multiplayer reveal because it was only part of a game and not the whole thing. People don't want half a game, they want the entire thing and not to feel like significant content is being withheld. I think that is an important aspect that should not be overlooked.
As far as the popularity or desirability of multiplayer games go, I do not think that this is a good place to form judgements about such based on comments in a thread, especially broad-sweeping ones. The reason I say that is because I think this is a place that tends to attract introverted people in disproportionate numbers compared to some others, and as such the introverted tend to shy away from the type of multiplayer-focused cooperative experience (of which voice communications is an integral part) that is exemplified by Vermintide. That's the theory anyway. Also, the percentage of people of who shop with Humble but at same time frequent this site and regularly engage in the community here is probably fairly low. This place may very well represent a small (albeit at times outspoken) and biased sample size that will skew results. I do not feel that making a generalization about the subscriber numbers based on people's comments here is necessarily accurate or representative of the whole.
edit: I could definitely see Factorio being in a Humble Monthly sooner or later though

I see where u are coming from and can agree with your points without feeling my own conjecture has no merit, but with your edit, I am thinking you are arguing for argument`s sake.
Comment has been collapsed.
If that's what you wish to believe then so be it. I simply believe that taking the temperature of the room (so to speak) on a glacier doesn't necessarily mean that the rest of the world need be as icy.

Feel free to clarify where I am unwilling to have an open mind. It`s rather ironic that this would be the conclusion you come to, and furthermore u prove my point that you are just here to argue.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well you've made it clear that to do so would be both a futile and ultimately hollow endeavor, therefore to say that is of no real consequence or meaning. Have a nice day.
Comment has been collapsed.
Again, the irony in your reply is amazing. I do want to take some credit but it is mostly yourself who made one thing very clear, that is that you are here just to start an argument and spout some rhetorical and nihilistic nonsense.
Fwiw, the bundle was not too bad, no Factorio tho ;)
