[OnePlay] The 12 months subscription for $1 offer is back [ENDED]

Meh. Don't really like the business model that they try to implement.

Yup if it becomes a trend then we are surely f****d

Crikey, that is seriously overpriced.

It is becoming an awful trend

games like furi, firewatch is on the list but still i would rather own them to play whenever than gaining access for a short period of time

Definitely worth it... it took awhile to figure out how to activate the subscription but seems like it will work out nicely..,.

I will use to to play all the HOG games which once played is not needed anymore.

Thanks for the info.

I'll give a try. It's just 1 buck for a whole year.

id rather they just fucking fix desura

Edit: for those daft enough to even consider this "service": https://www.trustpilot.com/review/oneplay.com - even their replies are piss poor.

Is there a list of the best games offered?

Hey OnePlay, still no Desura library back for us?

View attached image.

Looks like a good deal, imagine if you could get a whole year of netflix for one buck, it'd be great.
For me it's a terrible offer however, my library is already massive enough to last me many years so I'd probably never touch this thing before the subscription expires.

Tried this a year or so ago. Didn't work for me even though i was charged 1$. Support replied with "everything's ok on our end go fuck yourself" scripted message that kinda charming.

1$ is ofc not much but my backlog is strong and winter (sale) is coming.

I did try a few games and even finished one (hidden object style adventure). As has been said, the client is bad, and I often had to exit and start it again just for my account to be recognised. It's hard to find games you want. I'd say it's certainly worth it for someone who doesn't own a lot of games, but I think that even for me it was worth $1. I got more out of it than a lot of game purchases.

I decided to try it out for a buck but I'm having trouble getting it to work. First the payment was super slow to be approved, then it took me a while to find out that what you bought was not the actual subscription but a 100% off voucher for their one year plan that you have to "reveal" in your "game library" and that you then need to enter as a gift code to buy the actual subscription :/ With that done, I got the client and downloaded Firewatch and was prompted to log in (again) to "activate" it but that failed. The client is also hot garbage, I can't choose where it will download and install my games and it's a UX disaster, switching between in-client and external web pages willy-nilly. Urgh, the whole thing is a mess. Wrote support about the VIP rental thing not working and I'm waiting to see what they have to say but if I can't get it to work I'm just going to dispute it with Paypal and get a refund.

Thanks for the heads up!
I'll most likely pick it up for Firewatch, the LEGO games, and their immense catalog of Hidden Object Games.
Their client is a pain in the ass and sometimes you have to try downloading a game numerous times before it registers. Also, I have multiple computers and it seems that whenever the IP of the device changes, it recognizes it as a new machine. I wouldn't complain, but you can only activate a game on up to 3 machines. It's honestly a terrible platform at the moment, but it's $1 and I am a sucker for HOGs.

i've kept a list of games of oneplay i intended to play, i think i have listed it once here but now it contains more items, probably it's useful for others to highlight the more fun games among their huge list of games (their client is indeed a mess):

They auto-renewd my subscription without prior notice. I just paid 68 dollars due to that unethical behavior from Oneplay. I highly recommend to stay away from this site.

installing adware and false advertising for just 1€

what a deal.

and where do you see 12 month? for me it says "3 months OnePlay VIP subscription
IN STOCK BUY $ 29.99 $ 1.00
You save $ 28.99 (97%)"

"-Games can only be installed on C: (or the same directory where the client is installed, not quite sure)" You can always create a symbolic link for programs that do that crap. It's usually big companies too that should have competent programmers but somehow don't.
