Micro Transaction Points

Hi, I have been enjoying the hell out of this game so much that it made me want to support by buying some stash tabs. I went in to do that, and noticed the points system requires you to buy more than you actually need to get what you want (similar to the microsoft points on xbox live), and this is really putting me off. People are going out of their way to give GGG money, yet they use money grab tactics to squeeze just a little more out of them. At least this is the way it seems to me, please correct me if I missed something here.

you are wrong

read the information at the top of that purchase page, specifically:

"

The number of Points per bundle varies because of credit card fees (which are much larger for smaller transactions) and to slightly encourage sales of larger packs

Then don't buy them I suppose.

I bought the $50 bundle and it allowed me two sets of 6 premium stashes and to upgrade the original 4 to premium with 56 left overs. Not a bad deal at all.

If you have no points now and don't want to have any left over just buy the $20 option for 200 pts and get the 6-pack premium stash tab bundle.

Yet every other game gives a round number when you pay 10 dollars.

god. we've had this discussion over and over already ... here's an idea:

pretend the $5 and $10 packs dont exist.

problem solved.

Here is an idea,how about we dont pretend that?This is realy low from them for doing this.

It seems my point was lost on a few people. I chose to buy the 150 point stash tab bundle because I don't care to color code and name them when I can just remember it. I went to get 150 points and found the only way to get 150 points is to buy 200 points, or spend the same amount of money that 200 points costs to get less than 200. It just so happens that the premium stash bundle is 200 points, making the 150 point bundle pointless.

Also, pretending a problem doesn't exist is a pretty terrible way to go about anything. I hate to say, but ualac you seem to be giving off a very strong vibe of "GGG can do no wrong because I am a diamond supporter I will defend anything they do no matter what"
