Mega pack for railworks 2 on steam

Post by ianb1234674 »

Has any body seen the new mega pack deal on steam I thought I was seeing things they got Railworks 2 and ALL dlc for £149 you save about £400 or some odd. I wonder what's going on there? I never seen that before. :) :o

A very good deal for new converts to RW but would someone new to the sim want to dive in with £149 investment for a computer game? what would the misses say? :o
Any smaller priced deals on the way, I thought Steam was going to blitz (am I allowed to use that word) us with Yuletide special offers? :wink:

Hmmm i'm kind of tempted by this. At the moment the only things I own from the pack are IOW and WCML North, so it would be good way for me to pickup a lot of content.

Not sure it would take much difference.. Most of the DLC other than WCML seems to download in a matter of seconds.. Just have another brew :D

Once I have the money, i'm buying this, seeing as i can save myself some money from it. However, I already have a few items on the list and have already spent £105 worth on items in the list. Though it means forking out another £150, it saves me spending another £400 in the long run?

Indeed. There isnt a great deal you can do about what you have already got but if you want to save a bit, its an ideal opportunity to do so.

An intriguing proposition ...

I already have 11 of the add-ons included in this package. There are 13 add-ons on my wanted list for this Christmas which are in this package. If I buy those 13 at normal price, it will cost me £ 154. The package costs £ 150. On top of that, there are some 6 to 8 other add-ons in which I'm interested but not yet committed to buying, and around 15 to 20 add-ons in the package in which I have absolutely no interest at all.

If you choose to delete any of these add-ons from your installation, I assume that Steam will re-install them the next time it updates or refreshes the cache. I'm also assuming that Steam doesn't offer any way of controlling which add-ons it installs - if you buy the lot, you get the lot in every Steam install that you update.

I wonder if RW2 can cope with all those add-ons in a single installation ...

Decisions, decisions - I may wait and see what other special offers Steam may have up its sleeves,

The Steam sale will be over the actual Christmas period; at least, that's when the Christmas sale usually is. And don't blame Steam if RW add-ons aren't part of it, either :wink:

'Mega Bundle'
I've been saying that all day in a rather sinister voice.

as bundles go it is rather huge.

anyway, thats me done for another week.
love fridays, and even better, no releases which means I can rest easy.

have a good one all.

regards

Seems like it's been further delayed in the inter-dimensional void of Steam's release "windows" :(
