Where can I get the DLCs in Germany?

[hit123 10]

Hi, I was looking for a possibility to buy both DLCs in Germany but I just found shops out of Germany. Does any shop exist that offers the DLCs for the retail game?

Is there any "combo pack" planned, I mean a possibility to get both DLCs for a cheaper price? :)

I´m from Germany too and i bought (ofcourse:) ) directly at Sprocket.

There was an DLC-Bundle at x-mas but i can´t see it anymore.

Sprocket.

Not germany but surely works for you too.

@Baraka: There was a x-mas bundle? What price was it?

@W0lle: Good to know

Thanks for your answers, I sent a mail to the support of Sprocket and asked if they will offer a bundle again. If not, then I will get it anyways... :D

I really find it hard to understand why people are asking why they can't get the DLC in their country.

I will always say Sprocket, support the developers. It's their direct outlet.

But maybe check this out too... http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=112841 ;)

I always use Sprocket and I am in Germany. :)

It's hard to find a store that sells the A2 DLC if you don't own a paypal account or a credit card. I won't subscribe to any of this for DLC so I'll wait until it is avaiable for classic payment.

Right now Meridian4 seems to be one of the best places for german DLC buyers but they still don't sell PMC DLC :mad:

Cant understand why your so against getting a Paypal account or paying with a credit card. :confused:

Credit cards are really unusual in Germany, so here are not that many people who have a credit card. But we have bank accounts (with online banking) and EC cards, which can be used for paying with paypal.

[NeMeSiS 11]

I thought i read that some Dutch banks made a deal with some German banks to allow paying through iDeal, which makes it possible to buy the DLC at GamersGate.

Thats what i did, even though i do have a creditcard, but i prefer not to use it.

First of all, birtuma is right. Using credit cards in germany is not a common paymode. Usually things are payed instantly by a customer.

Second thing regarding paypal is a personal issue as I don't like this company because of it's bad reputation. I know lots of people have no problem but that doesn't convince me. Besides there is a huge security issue if your paypal account is connected to one or more credit cards and your banking account(s) in case of a hacking attempt. You could be ruined very fast.

I like classic methods of paying and if they're not possible, I don't buy anything. It's as simple as that.

Because many people don't understand English sufficiently, thus don't know that DLC is an acronym for Downloadable Content. Simple as that, and international transactions are not an everyday matter yet either

And your information regarding Paypal is from where? Or is this just your take on the whole Paypal issue? I have been using Paypal for about 3 years now and yes it is linked to my bank account / card and no I have never had any security issues.

Can we drop the 'Paypal is evil' vs. 'Paypal is great' discussion please?

It's pointless after all. If one doesn't want to use because of 'security risks' then that is his problem (No DLC).

Done, apologies.

What about Maestro?

It's owned by Mastercard and has prepaid cards

They work like Credit cards online and in stores.
