Every giveaway for Dark Messiah I've found is the MP.
Is anyone planning to do SP?

Well, no one receives points for putting up the MP keys. The people that have submitted the MP keys clearly state that they are MP only as well.

Edit: It still looks like the people that enter into the giveaway don't notice that they are multiplayer only.

  • It's the wrong use of the term. It's more of an exploiter. Because it's technically not gifting a full game, so it shouldn't be counted as gifting a full game. (I know that DM has been disabled and does not gift points anymore) If I gifted Portal 2, and it only came with MP, some people might be interested, but it's still not the same as Gifting Portal 2 Full with SP and MP intact.

  • The Dark Messiah Option on the menu for submitting giveaways should only be for the Full Game with SP and MP.

  • The site, and steam itself does not distinguish between Regular DM M&M w/ SP and MP, and the MP only version. If it did they'd have separate ID's.

  • Since MP Only is "Free" it shouldn't be gifted as if it was a full game, demanding the full point value to enter. Instead, since it is free, it should be given away as such. Even though you say you're from Poland and are able to get as many keys as you like. The general consensus of the site is to always take sides with the developers/publishers of games and the companies that are promoting them. Since the Polish site does have measures to make sure people outside of Poland aren't getting keys, the users on the site feel that it is best to Honor their wishes and not obtain keys for people outside of Poland and any advertisement as such.

  • Even though you are not circumventing their region locking by using proxies because you actually live in Poland, it is clear that the site has made an effort (although minimal) to offer this promotion only to it's Polish userbase.

I'm with Inrideo on this. Would actually be tempted to join a giveaway for one if it wasn't a MP only key that was acquired through shady means (the way I understand it)

Considering the source of the keys, its more of an exploit than a scam. The codes are legit, they're just not made for people outside of poland. Paying the full price in points for only the multiplayer part of the game is somewhat of a scam, but oh well you don't have to enter.

I'm creating these giveaways because I'm from Poland and I can take as much keys as I want from this site.
And this site is site of the biggest gaming magazine here in Poland. Everyone here can take as much keys as they want.
Since I already have that game I'm taking few keys and I'm posting giveaway here for people that do not have it and do not want to use polish proxy's too.

There's nothing illegal in here, so please - do not call me a scammer. Do not enter if you do not want it.

  • In my opinion it should be put up as a thread in the forum for free rather than a giveaway that requires points to enter since it is a "Free" game.

  • The site and steam do not distinguish between SP/MP and MP only versions of the game. So it really is misrepresenting the game, and the system. There is already a thread for free games on the forum.

Use words appropriately. There is no scam, and the site wins nothing if they put them up. People only join if they WANT to. Stop being a cry baby.

  • I agree that the word scammer is used incorrectly but it still is a grey area.

it's not my fault that some people cant read and they're entering every giveaway without thinking what they're doing.
I'm informing people in all my giveaways that these keys are MP ONLY.

Really, it's not my fault.

It has nothing to do with whether or not people are reading the descriptions. Nor have I expressed any fault in my posts.

Scam: "A dishonest scheme"

I am using the word appropriately. The rules say DO NOT POST THEM. So people post it and leave out that it's MP only from the description until someone calls them on it so they can play the "Oh, I didn't know I wasn't supposed to post this" card.

I agree it should cost nothing to enter the giveaway, or simply put the keys out there for anyone who wants them, but still, it's not a scam. z_z

Agreed, it should cost either nothing or max 1 or 2 points. Having the same cost for it as for the full game is kinda ridiculous. I mean, it's even more points than the Humble Bundles and those include at least 4 full games.

Oh and did I mention the multiplayer is dead? It's pretty much worthless...
