Why ?

because of the high reviews and only 1$

regret because I already own XCOM and I have CIV V shared with me (and didn't even get V or IV). Pirates is promising I suppose, but it's just another for the backlog >.>

The bundle doesn't look that bad, I'd get tier 2 for like $4.
But right now without single keys, they're asking for too much :/

Considering it for 15 dollars, would have been for sure if they were individual keys instead of full tier keys

Good bundle. But i have most important games in this bundle. And did not know that i will be only one key for tier. I wanted to give away games and took only this which i did not have. I will give away whole tier 1 or ask for a refund and will but other bundle to giveaway:). I locked it on around 6.47 USD.

BTW: How to giveaway it on stemgifts if it is a 1 key? If I can not giveaway I will ask for a refund for sure.

The best you could do is create a giveaway for something in that key, and provide the rest as a bonus to the winner. Better to make it clear in the description though. Some entrants I suppose might not want the extras.

Usually id grab this at $6 just for Eu and give away the rest of my keys but since its one key per tier... Yeah no.

I got a chuckle out of the guy in the Top Contributors that apparently meant to put 6.59 into the payment box for BTA, but put it into the contributor name box and paid $25 instead :)

Now this presents another issue with the new monthly subscriptions, will that also be one key for all games or different keys.

This has happened before in bundles. They'd lose a ton of subs if they do this on monthly subs.

They are not doing that good for quite some time with bundles, I am afraid they will goof up on this as well. Even with the dissatisfaction with this bundle, price is still rising as of now.

Well Humble Monthly will be consisted of multiple publishers/devs, so I doubt they'll come together and package their games as one key.

This is probably the doing of 2K.

I guess even humble was not aware of it, because warning about 1 key came at a later point of time, it took them 5 mins to update the status

I have messaged HB to inquire about whether this is a new policy or just a one-off requested by Firaxis. I'll let you know if I hear back.

A single key is only possible with a single publisher, or cooperation among multiple publishers, which is rare to impossible.

I don't know why people keep getting worried about this. Keys are controlled by the publishers, not Humble.

A publisher has absolutely no incentive to allow that, unless it's to protect their own games, like in this case.

If I didn't have all of the XCOM items, I'd go for the BTA for sure. Pass, I guess.

The expansion is definitely worth the price! Go for it if you have the funds but the other games might go to waste though. Hopefully you'll find some nice home for those :)

Edit: Oh wait, I forgot they bundled everything into one key. Wow, what a waste for the others.

It is.. If I had to choose, I'd go for it only if the BTA is below $5. I'd pass if it go any higher. This is if I only wanted the expansion alone, mind you.

Just a word of warning. Once you buy your BTA price is fixed. Seems to be a good thing at the moment because the BTA price is increasing.

Shit. I should have came here first. Already did beat the average just to get starships and the x-com dlc packs. Was going to give the rest away.
HB should really say if the keys are separated or bundled before you buy them.

Damn guess they did say that. Just didn't see it. Still it wasn't on the front page until you click how you are paying for the bundle.

As far as the leaked bonuses go, the X-COM Classics were bundled once before together as a package:

How are people complaining? I'm trying to scrounge up some money at this moment to make sure that I could buy the BTA tier, so I could give these games off to people who don't have these games.
Don't buy this for yourself. Think further and think of someone else, who would love to get their hands on this bundle.
If you have the money, buy it. It's worth it. Give the excess away. Support Firaxis, HB and some cool charities. No need to start complaining about this good bundle. Better than most.

You can't give the excess away.

I think people have a right to complain when they are putting entire tiers on a single key so the games can't be separated. If they are going to do that then they need to be completely transparent about it and warn people up front before taking their money.

edit: There seems to be a warning below but it is not made visible enough. Ideally, it should be displayed in red or something in the section above where the tiers are shown. Yes, people should read before buying but you know how that goes for many.

Sorry, my fault guys. This is horrible. I mean, the bundle's still good, but there's literally no reason to get it if you have these games already.

I'm not interested in Civ, already have the entire XCOM for ages. Top tier is not good or expensive enough to farm CV. Very much skip.

I don't know who was this bundle made for. XCOM has been on sales almost every single day since the sequel was announced. Maybe for people who want to start wasting months on the Civ games?

Anyhow, frankly, this is a bundle that I would have expected on Bundle Stars, not HB.
