If you checked the DLC tab under Retribution for the DLC included in the pack and it's still not there, then Tony may have an improper activation or glitch due to the order some people activate in.

I activated Retribution first. I tried activating the DLC code, but it says "Product Already Owned" and redirects me to install Retribution again. I then gave the code to my gf, who activated it as the Last Standalone base game, but without the DLC.

is there any news about Guild Wars 2?

Hmm, you might want to send Tony screenshots of your DLC tab for Retribution and your girlfriend's tab as well? I wonder if it is a key error in the batches that were sent, so potentially some Last Stand Alone codes got thrown in by accident.

The DLC names for this game are way too long, haha. The names are cut off in the DLC tab, so I can't tell what is what.

Edit: Did some additional research. For The Last Standalone base, the DLC tab says:
"Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Retribution - Last Stan..."
"Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II Retribution - Imperial Fi..." (free DLC I think?)

The full Retribution game has in the DLC tab
"Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Retribution - Campaig..."
"Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Retribution - Last Stan..."
"Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Retribution - Multiplay..."
"Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II Retribution - Imperial Fi..."

Waiting for THQ Medley to flip over

you would make me feel better if you just got walking dead
the gifts would just end up in backlogs
so play the walking dead

I grabbed this from the Steam app on my phone back when everyone was getting the franchise pack there.

as i mentioned before

it is "last stand alone mode" expansion only, not the full dlc pack which contains 6 unique wargear for heroes

as steam tells me

LOL perhaps. If I buy both the DoW pack and TWD, I'll be out of $5 coupons.

Nothing else in the OP interests me, nor does Max Payne 3. So, I'm not sure if I should hold onto one more coupon just in case...have there been any other hints of deals to come? I may have missed something.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT!!!

The combat in DoW is more squad based and tactical than AoE. I'd say that's the biggest gameplay difference for me. As a result the combat feels much faster paced rather than "make 1039240340931409309 longbowman, point at castle, win."

BTW I LOVE AoE as well. I'll be picking it up again here soon, is the multiplayer pretty active still?

Cheers,

Tony, it seems we got the incorrect codes with our DoW franchise packs. Instead of the Last Stand DLC, people received codes for Last Standalone, which if you installed in the proper order means that code is wasted and can't be activated (as Last Stand is included in Retribution) Any chance you could look into this for us?

The Retribution DLC pack has the wargear in it. The Last Standalone isn't the wrong key, it is just superfluous.

@ Tony, thank you for your reply and all these great deals. For $5 I'm probably going to give it a shot and try new RTS games. Also just logged in AOE3 to check and saw about ~1k multi-players.

It is superfluous, but it is ALSO the wrong key. It's advertised as the Last Standalone Wargear DLC Pack, but gives The Last Standalone instead.

Comeon Tony some of us need sleep so filp the THQ medley

Man all those DOW games look so nice in my Steam library. Too bad the DOW 1 games aren't steam keys haha. When I get around to playing them i'll have to add the shortcuts to Steam and respective grid icons

I just checked, I have none of the dlc items listed on the amazon page for the included pack. That is inded not the correct key.

Hmm yeah you're right. Not sure what's up with that.
