“NOTE: Players who currently own Don't Starve on Steam will get Don't Starve Together for free when it exits Early-Access. During Early-Access, current owners of Don't Starve get 2 copies of Don't Starve Together through the Frontier Pack at 75% off."
It's an old news

It was announced as such a very long time ago and directly on the Steam page, nothing new there.

To all people above saying it's old news: what we didn't know is WHEN we were going to receive Don't Starve Together if we already had Don't Starve. Now we know the release date, and the deadline to receive "free" extra copies of DS Together by buying DS. That is new news :P
PS: Unless they do another sale this month, it seems last week's sale was also the last chance to buy the Frontier Pack (DS+ 2 copies of DS Together) really cheap :/

Thanks, nice to know! I think my sister doesn't have Don't Starve yet, I will ask her if she wants it before the discount is over!

Thanks. Updated topic - looks like everyone just read that, without checking TL; DR part...
Guess it was TL so they DR it :)

Damn, I own Don't Starve Together, but don't have Don't Starve :(

I bought Don't Starve + Reign of Giants DLC on offer solely to get Don't Starve Together for free.

Ok, i have got Dont Starve and now i need contact something or what? can explain better?...or need wait to June 3?¿

I already own DS together and I don't own don't starve. what will happen to me?
Comment has been collapsed.
What I wondered since the start of this deal is what happens to the people that bought DST or frontier pack if they already owned DS.
Will they get a gift copy of DST in their inventory? Or what?
Comment has been collapsed.
I find odd that they didn't give previous owners free copy on release, then proceeded to give thousands of free copies.
Comment has been collapsed.
I meant about the need to wait for early access to end, while same time giving free codes for everyone on their page.
Comment has been collapsed.
But what about the part of:
Store steam
"Buy Don't Starve Together
Includes an extra copy of Don't Starve Together. Send it to a friend!"
Shouldn't they include an extra copy for you to gift taking into account that THAT's one of the main concerns of the "play together" pack?

Do you guys know of any place to get DS for cheap now? I totally missed all of this...

Currently no sales. It can be found on the grey market for ~6€, if you dare buying from it.
Comment has been collapsed.
You can find it on tf2outpost for 3 - 4 tf2 keys.
Comment has been collapsed.
Probably best at this point in time. There have been several incidents where keys bought from grey market sellers have been revoked recently, and chances are that they'll really start to crack down on people buying stolen keys/keys bought with stolen credit cards soon, to set an example.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't even trade for games. It took me ages to start trading cards since everyone tried to scam me when I just joined Steam. People were offering me Dead Island Beta for like 10 of my cards.... That kind of trauma doesn't fade easily xD

Steamgifts has a pretty solid trading section. It shouldn't be hard to find a Frontier Pack for 3 keys. And with the rep system you can see how trustworthy they are or not
Comment has been collapsed.
You say tf2keys / any keys and I look at you like this....
Comment has been collapsed.
simply keys usually refer to csgo keys since there's a price difference.
Roughly 1 csgo key=2.50 euro and 1 tf2key=2.20 euro
also keep in mind that there's a 7day restriction from when you buy them to when you can trade them.
Comment has been collapsed.
So you're talking about Case keys for csgo and Chroma 2 cases for tf2?
Comment has been collapsed.
Any but capsule keys for csgo(those are worth half) with Chroma ones being the most common and Mann Co. for tf2
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you for explaining it to me :)
I'm still a bit fearful of trading as there is a possibility for it to go wrong (I just have the worst luck) so I mostly wait for the games I want to get bundled or go on a huge sale somewhere.
Hopefully, some day I'll give it a go and I'll know a bit of what I'm doing thanks to you <3

As long as you do an actual trade using the steam trade interface, it should be safe (but you need to plan ahead, as you need to wait a week before you can trade keys that you've bought). Trading keys for game keys is always risky though. Personally I've stopped trading, as long as no-one I know is safe actually asks me to do a trade, not because I got scammed, but because it was so much work actually figuring out who's trustworthy and who's not. Every time I posted a trade offer, it felt like I got 5 scammers for everyone who actually were interested in doing an honest trade (and they almost always tried to impersonate some other well known trader). And actually saying "no, I don't want to trade with you" never felt good, due to the off-chance of them actually not being a scammer.

Yup, I've heard about all the impersonating that's been going on... Horrible. Bundles ftw xD

Thank you so much for letting me know but it's still a bit to pricey for me. I'm more in a 2€ zone xD

That is impossible, it is a very popular game and it was never bundled. As others said, in the grey market is valued at 3 keys, so more or less 6-7 euros and Humble Bundle is an official reseller.
Comment has been collapsed.
Does it matter where we buy the game from? Because after activating the HB key, it showed up as Don't Starve 3rd party redeem. So, I'll still get DST on the 3rd right? It won't be a problem, right? Maybe I'm being uselessly paranoid. Right?
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm not sure, but it literally says: " all Don’t Starve owners in Steam", not "all who bought the game on Steam Store", so I think you will get DS Together for free :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Wow, that was quite a quick response. Thanks for your help!
Comment has been collapsed.
Soo... What if I own Don't Starve Together? I wan't free Don't Starve... This is discrimination...
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope, they were pretty clear that buying DS Together only gives you access to it earlier than to others.
Comment has been collapsed.
Discrimination, I am Master of the Universe! I deserve all games!
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, I read that when the store page first went up and that's why I never thought to buy it, since I was going to get it for free later anyway and I was in no rush.
Comment has been collapsed.
I bought it already, because i love the game and wanted to support the devs.... who cares if i could get it free... i knew that when i paid for it...... the game is cheap, its fun to play, and well worth your money...... instead of griping.... go buy it, but it all..... it is money well spent.

bump with fresh info: "If you bought Don't Starve on gog.com, send us an email with the key you got from gog.com and we will give you a steam key."

Has anyone redeemed an old gift copy of Don't Starve since this went live? I'm assuming that it will give you Don't Starve Together in your library as well as long as it was purchased prior to the cutoff.
Comment has been collapsed.
I guess we should look into steamdb, if there are some new and old Don't Starve versions, but you should be right - at least that's how keys work, according to http://steamcommunity.com/games/219740/announcements/detail/120815979558708987
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't see why it wouldn't. I mean technically a Steam gift is probably just a key too 'under the hood'. It's just that you never get to see it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Wouldn't be so sure, there are tons of games that have different entries for cd-keys and steam-bought-copies (can't say if all have that).
Anyway, I checked and there are two (actually, there's more, but they are different versions of same copy, most of a times...) different Don't Starves on Steam. New one is this: https://steamdb.info/sub/67579/apps/, while old ones are like this: https://steamdb.info/sub/28478/apps/ .
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah, good point.
If you look at that second link it does mention Don't Starve Together in the list of "Apps in this Package"
Comment has been collapsed.
Damn, that was supposed to be mine point :P
So, if your copy was bought pre-2nd-June, you should have sub 24748. Hopefully :P

TL; DR: "We can now confirm that Don’t Starve owners will be gifted Don’t Starve Together on June 3, 2015. (...) This means that June 2nd, will be the last day to qualify to receive Don’t Starve Together by purchasing Don’t Starve".
And it's off, crowd goes wild: http://steamcommunity.com/games/219740/announcements/detail/120815979558708987 .
