I made the decision today to relent and purchase DTM experience. The reason is that I really enjoyed the new Audi in R3E and I figured I waited long enough to buy DTM.
So I click on the icon in R3E and I am given two choices:
1) Buy the 2013 game only for €24.99
2) buy the game plus the code for the 2014 edition for €39.99
#2 is what I want so I read the instructions and I click on "Buy Redeem Code" for €39.99.
Except that when I click on that it takes me to a link (http://store.dtm-experience.com/game.html) where the game costs 24.99. Clearly not the one I want.
So I go back to R3E and click on the other option. That one keeps me inside the steam system and gives me various choices for purchasing credits, but the price I see listed is 2900vRP which also amounts to around €24.99 if my math is correct.
By the way, the reason why I am not buying it here on RD is because I already have the free car and track they are offering.
What is going on? Is the price lower now? Why wouldn't I be able to buy the €39.99 package?
I should point out that my expertise is in e-commerce, so I am not a babe in the woods when it comes to buy things online (At the same time, building shopping carts doesn't mean I am immune from brain farts).
this is not a very clear interface and certainly not an intuitive process.
Now, it's possible that upon following one of the two paths, I can then pay for the code and get both the 2013 game and the 2014 code, but nothing assures me of that and I don't know what would happen if I buy the wrong package. Am I then forced to play the 2013 game and buy the 2014 one full price when it comes out?
If someone has completed the transaction directly from R3E or knows of a place where I can do it, pay with paypal and get the download immediately, I'd be grateful.
Thanks.
