Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

With a last purchase i have made some bonus points buying an AV8B. I would like to use these points now as i intend to buy a Nevada Map.

However i cannot find anywhere during checkout how to use these points, am i missing something?

Have a problem with using my bonus points.

 

 

Since there actually is a 50% bonus point sale I wanted to use some of my bonus points. I see it is only possible for released ED modules. Ok.

 

 

I tried to test it with a Yak-52 and a Mig-29 but I could not see any where how to use my points.

 

 

 

How does it work? Did I miss something?

Yes, have $28 of points, logged in to look at CA and cannot see an option to use points on 50%?

can we use bonus points to buy full price early access products from ED?

You can use bonus points on modules that are not on discount. That means you can use them on products that are released in Eary Access, unless there is a special discount going on (e.g. summer sale). You can generally not use them on products before they enter Early Access, beause they will probably be on pre-sale which means they are discounted.

I hope I didn't make it more confusing than it already was :music_whistling:

Should I have received bonus points for previous purchases at full price? Because in my account, it's marked "no information".

 

 

I recently purchased the Tomcat at full price.

 

 

Tomcat is a Heatblur thing. Bonus points are not for (every) 3rd party products. Don't know if HB is or is not participating in bonus system though.

Yeah, it would have been nice if they could be used for the F-16 pre-purchase.

i386DX40@42 MHz w/i387 CP, 4 MB RAM (8*512 kB), Trident 8900C 1 MB w/16-bit RAMDAC ISA, Quantum 340 MB UDMA33, SB 16, DOS 6.22 w/QEMM + Win3.11CE, Quickshot 1btn 2axis, Numpad as hat. 2 FPH on a good day, 1 FPH avg.

 

DISCLAIMER: My posts are still absolutely useless. Just finding excuses not to learn the F-14 (HB's Swansong?).

 

Annoyed by my posts? Please consider donating. Once the target sum is reached, I'll be off to somewhere nice I promise not to post from. I'd buy that for a dollar!
