Where is the reward for those that bought every DLC which is now available to all?

For those of us that have purchased every DLC, where is the bonus for us now that you've opened everything up to everyone via in game play? If there is nothing then do we need to pursue a refund?

    That's an insane comparison - besides they already stated they were going to do something for us.

    I mean they told everyone they’d give people a unique cosmetic for supporting them and buying the dlc so I understand where why some people are upset. 

    I get that and I can understand why people would be upset with these cosmetics not being available right away, perhaps they should make an announcement regarding what's happening with that. In my opinion though, I don't think they will be able to whip up exclusive skins that will really shout "thank you" to the purchasers right away so I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't see them come around until maybe a patch or two later. My main problem comes in when people expect a refund over an item they've already used long enough as is.

    Oh yea I agree like they’re working on other skins as well so I understand if it’ll be some time. They really should make announcement so people can know they didn’t forget lol

    Actually from hearing what other people say. The secondary outfits of the survivors aren't available when buying with shards

    I can confirm yes, secondary outfits aren't available to those who purchased them with shards.

    It's the same thing as saying I should get something for buying a game when it was released plus the DLC's and then getting mad 7 months later when the "Game of the year" edition of the game comes out at a discount. You already had the content in this case for 5+ months, how would you even get a refund for something you have and played for X amount of hours? If we do get some kind of cosmetic for buying early that is great but I don't find it necessary.

    Actually it’s nothing like that. .
    you had it earlier is not a valid reason as it was purchased in good faith that that was the only way you could play it. Those who did want to pay never got to play it. That is no longer the case.

    stop using false analogy’s.

    I still think people were confused by the DEVs saying if you buy the DLC you get an extra cosmetic, because if you buy curtain call you do get an extra cosmetic. I don’t think they ever planned adding retrospective cosmetics for the other DLCs

    However they did say that they were gonna add some skins for those who purchased it early.

    Noone knows when, and I think that's what this guy is confused about just as everyone else.

    Such a whiteknight, how noble you are.

    Read the thread again, devs promised us unique skins, and we still do not have them.

    No they bought it so they could be the ONLY ones to access it. What part of this is hard for you to grasp.
    It wasn’t an early access purchase. They made pay to play a play to pay system

    It would be a polite gesture but I don't think it's really needed, personally.

    It was just $7 every once in a while for something new to mess around with, that's a good enough reward to me. I'll keeping buying the DLCs since it's cheap and something new, but I would never expect some sort of compensation for me filling the game with more to play around with.

    I put 800 hours into this game.

    I'd say I got my reward already.

    Honestly that was mostly a joke. I understand where you're coming from and you are correct, but it's worth noting that the devs are extremely likely to ignore this and pretend they never said anything like that.

    Quite possibly, personally I don’t care either way. But when you have people rewarded for playing the game before the bloodweb was made easier, than for those actually paying for DLC are the people keeping this game supported

    Any alternate cosmetics a character has are what we have for owning DLC. When they said we may get exclusives the assumption was that they'd create something instead of just locking out things that already existed.

    Most of the DLC is licensed, and requires money to purchase anyway. You cannot buy the movie characters with Shards. At least, I didn't check...

    The "unique skins" your talking about is the white outfit for Kate therefore meaning the other skins you so desperately want are already out for the other characters and have been for awhile. It's as simple as that. You just misunderstood what the devs where talking about.

    Wow really so u bought something just to get something free? Did you not want to play the dlc asap? If so quit your entitled whining.

    They shouldn't give anything more than what they have already.

    You bought the DLC and didn't have to grind shards.

    No one deserves special treatment and they have no legal obligation to give free stuff to specific people.

    This. Every killer and survivor that you can buy with shards has two cosmetic outfits. You only get the second outfit if you paid cash. There's your unique cosmetic.

    For god's sake, people, this is not an entitlement problem if you regard the statements the devs have made in that regard.

    They said that buyers of the DLCs would receive an exclusive cosmetic option that people who unlock Chapters with Shards won't get.

    Since they didn't specify what those cosmetics would be/are, people (reasonably enough) assumed that those would new, not yet existing cosmetics.

    That in fact, those exclusive cosmetics would simply be any already existing alternative to the default outfit wasn't specified until a couple of weeks later.

    I think the main reason people are annoyed is because they spent money on both dlc killers (Hag/Doctor - excluding licensed killers since they are still pay only) before earning them via play time was even an option. Had earning killers through shards been a thing, I know very well that my choice to spend money on either would've been reversed in favor of simply playing to get them. I completely understand why some people are irritated about no compensation (auric cells or anything substantial), as many were likely never under the impression that something they paid money for could go up for free.

    How is it a false analogy? The OP wants a "bonus" for having purchased content from over a year ago because it is now unlockable with play time which is the same concept as I stated. You HAD the content for at least a year at this point (non-licensed that is) and used it for that long and it is not a foreign concept in games especially for previously released DLC to come in the base game. Why did they not get mad when it came out for console and we got all prior released DLC included? Not to mention its not like its an instant unlock, you still have to grind to get there for free, and you don't get all the cosmetics you get with purchasing.

    Because it is.... pay to play is not the same as play to pay. There is an issue of good faith that at the time of purchase there was the complete understanding that those who didn’t pay didn’t play, it was not early access they paid for.

    Not to mention he is not asking for a bonus he is asking for what he believes was promised by the Devs.

    The long and short is that at the time they offered a product for a price, we paid that price and got the product, there was no “good faith” involved, we just wanted that content bad enough to purchase it, the fact that it can be grinded now has no bearing on that. Again it would be great to get additional things for purchasing back then but it’s unnecessary, we got what we paid for.
