Seems like a good price for a well optimised, fun game. I know it's also available as part of the Humble Monthly Bundle, but this is a few quid cheaper. Good for people who aren't interested in cancelling subscriptions after 1 month or getting other games they don't want.
The higher GBP price in the title is available to anyone with a PayPal account, PayPal will convert foreign currencies to GBP and then charge your bank account in GBP, so there are no extra fees.
The lower price is only available to those with a zero foreign currency transaction fee credit card, such as a Halifax Clarity Card.
DO NOT pay in Euros on a standard UK credit/debit card, there will almost certainly be extra charges applied by your bank or credit card company.
Naturally, prices may well change by a few pence, either up or down, as the Euro to GBP exchange rate fluctuates.

Stop putting Steam in the title when it's not sold by steam. Put the seller FIRST. Ta.

Thanks for the feedback. You're the first to mention it and no-one from the HUKD moderation team has said anything similar. However, if a majority of others voice the same opinion as yourself, or I'm instructed to change it by the moderation team, I'll reformat any active deals and put the seller first in future.
I don't think I can say fairer than that. :smiley:

My experience is that seller last is the done thing around here.
Besides, I don't think the way it's formatted here is confusing. That it's a steam key is relevant information to a lot of people (e.g. those who avoid things like Uplay).

I think it's good to mention the DRM / platform - As long as the merchant is mentioned in the title too, it should be fine. The DRM does indeed matter to some people and it saves a little time if you're scrolling through the deals without clicking :smiley:

If we buy with paypal in euro, we get low price also correct ? as you say they dont charge for conversion.
PayPal will convert foreign currencies to GBP and then charge your bank account in GBP, so there are no extra fees.

With PayPal you'll get the higher of the two GBP prices quoted in the title. The lower of the two GBP prices is for people with credit cards which do not charge a conversion fee for purchases made in foreign currencies. This price is lower as these cards have a better conversion rate than PayPal.
However, both prices are well below what you'd pay if you just select GBP on the CDKeys website (currently £9.49 with the 5% code applied).

Cheers for the clarification, NeoTrix. I put the DRM/platform first because, as you say, some people have err....strong feelings...about one DRM system or another.
I'll leave it as is, unless the community overwhelmingly voice their collective opinion that they'd prefer it formatted differently. :smiley:

Solid game. My map-mopper of choice currently. The more I get into it the more and more I'm often thinking "hey this is actually really good!". Sitting waiting for a 6 car strong convoy to roll back around made me feel like I was actually in The Road Warrior. Some absolute quality mayhem at times.

No worries, you could always pop [Steam Key] at the end, if that helps? Up to you though! It's your thread! :smiley:

One of the best optimised games I've ever played. Runs like butter.

This and MGSV are the two best optimised PC games I've played, both are examples of the PC version of a game done perfectly.

27 Apr 16#19
great game, come out too long after mad max and too close to MGS5 to really get the attention it deserved but the driving and the fighting are both great and there is a lot to do (open the map and open-world map marker fatigue does start to set in though)

A tiny complaint about MGS is that the engine seems optimised for 60fps. I play on a 1440/144 monitor and whilst you can unlock it my fps wouldnt go above around 80fps, even though it was only using 85% of my GPU. Mad Mad was smashing it however at 120fps maxed out, fully GPU usage all the time. Truly a wonderful piece of code.
matt101101
27 Apr 16#21
I didn't realise that. I only game at 1080p @ 60fps, so MGSV's refusal to go above ~80fps went entirely unnoticed.
Now I'm aware of that, Mad Max does take the title of the best optimised PC game I've played. It's just a shame that Avalanche Studios couldn't do a better job of optimisation with Just Cause 3, I was expecting good things after Mad Max.

The physics are supposedly tied to the frame rate so unlocked can result in funky things, I believe the same is true of games like skyrim, fallout etc. Personally I didn't notice anything. Problem with JC3 wasnt the optimisation IMO, it just wasnt that fun after 5 hours for me.
matt101101
27 Apr 16#23
I know lots of games aren't designed to run over 60fps, I just didn't know MGSV was one of them.
What?! JC3 was great fun! :stuck_out_tongue:

Been debating whether to get this but at that price it's worth a gamble, reviews saying it's repetitive put me off but it's worth a go.

Just want to point out that this game is in the current Humble Monthly Bundle for $12 or about £8.70. You get Mad Max right away, and then it unlocks more games (usually about 7-9 total) at end of the month.

A rehash of what i've posted before; I semi reviewed this game on release, and at the original cd- keys price of 14 quid, it was still just 'fine'. this is a hot price, but if you've honestly got anything in your steam library you haven't got round to playing yet, then you should maybe give this a swerve.
You could put 'Steam code' instead....may stop some fragile minds being blown and needing to read the full title which could waste about 3 seconds of their life....I mean every moment is precious after all :P
