Updated my account to Premiere but the benefits don't seem to be working (the Bundle coupon doesn't work; only 20% showing on Gift Card purchases... Probably other things I didn't have time to test yet...) Is this also happening to anyone here?
Prices seem to be wonky right now so I would wait a bit.
I had a cart with $56 in it last night. It was $450+ after a nap. I guess I won't buy any of those assets now. I overslept by two hours to finish that sale.
But, as the thread title says, There will be another sale. Back into the wishlist they go.
C'est la vie.
I didn't pick up much other than D+ & biweekly freebies during the last week of the PA sale. I did buy 1 WL DO with the 20% coupon and, oddly for me, 1 LD that was under $1. But I was able to buy a bit more during the sale than I expected, so I am happy. Well, except for Daz changing everything around.
Now we know the reason they extended the PA sale: to put off the misery of fixing the inevitable glitches while fielding (mostly justified) forum explosions.
Maybe DAZ wanted PA to get more money and then we spent so much that we didn't want to upgrade
And a new day dawns in Daz-Land... These people certainly know how to over-complicate shopping! No idea what to do or say.
It seems to be how they celebrate their anniversary. Some people go out to dinner, buy a new outfit, and others get a new makeover . . . like a website makeover.
Edit: Just thought of something . . . will edit this in a minute rather than post twice If one reads between the lines, it seems Starter Essentials (only G10?) will be part of the subscription plan that leads me to believe DAZ 5 is ready, subscription only and G10 is about to debut along with DAZ 5. Every major DAZ Studio PRO version debuts a new character. 4.15 gave us 8.1. while 4.21 gave us G9 and although 4.22 gave us volumetrics it was not a major release. More like a test release, like they did for 8.1 prior to G9. But, 4.22 gave us Omni hair, and recently Omni nails too. Will G10 be an Omni10? Omni means of all things. Is DAZ going Omniverse? Do base members not get access to new content? Does anyone else wonder how this affect the Christmas PA giveaways. Last year the majority of PA Christmas content was targeted toward G9. Currently we can modify things in DAZ,we can create shapes from older models for G9. This reminds me of when Victoria 9 and the DAZ horse 3 were prematurely offered and we all know how that went. So I think I am going to lurk around some forums, stalk the DAZ release announcements, and click nothing to ensure my membership stays as is and I don't accidently mess it up. I have also backed up all plugins etc.
Already feeling bad for the forum team... dealing with three tiers of pricing queries in every sale...
It looks interesting but will wait and see. Last year they removed tokens for xmas so I guess they are now officially permanent.
Tokens may very well be permanent but I doubt they will be 100% consistently activated for every sale. DAZ can, and rightfully so, put an exclusion on any product promo or sale. I will be in shock if the tokens stay in place as a permanent carte blanche for every sale. Each month is a new subscription. Each month conditions can change.
Edit. For me DAZ Studio has 4 active tiers. DAZ BASE, DAZ PLUS monthly subscription, DAZ Premier monthly subscription, and grandfathered DAZ Annual Memberships.
Is it working for you? My coupons aren't working and prices are still the same Daz+ for me... The only different thing is some Daz Studio Premier add-ons showed up on my product library (didn't test them yet, though, because I didn't update my Daz Studio to the newest version -- I guess it's necessary).
Aren't the coupon codes on the wrong descriptions? I was pretty sure the Save 6 used to go to the $18 cart one...
Yes, the coupon codes are reversed.
Yes, this is an odd way to celebrate. re: edit: That's food for thought. I suppose we'll have to wait to see.
I miss the PA sale already; wish they continued to extend it. I doubt anything will come close to it for a long time. Ah well...
Joyous news, indeed. Long have I awaited the day that I, too, get to play at Genesis generation curmudgeon.
Nothing will beat G9. Never ever.
The bends on G10 are awful! Worked on day 1 for G9 out of the box. G8 had to wait nineteen years for proper bending and now I think G10 will too.
The two gender thing is a total throwback. What is this? The 1830's?
128k resolution textures? Don't they know that the planet is burning!
Pah, G10. Don't want it, don't need it, won't b--
Oh, that's a handsome character.
I'm loving G10.
Now I am longing for the good ol' days when Daz broke -- I mean Celebrated!! -- the Sale Formerly Known As Anniversary by replacing the store software.
Whine....
It's included in every plan, including the free one though.
Things seem to be working for Premiere members now.
B.T.W., "door buster" is just a fancy name for an item with a special rebate, isn't it? It doesn't give you any special rebates like the golden tickets, right?
Indeed, it doesn't seem to give you extra discount on anything else.
me too
I spent quite a lot these past weeks, at least my bargains should tide me over the famine now, I actually budgeted for a discounted DAZ+ offer too but now that will no longer happen with monthly subscriptions
I was absolutely gobsmacked people were complaining about that sale being extended and dared say so to much blowback
now I am betting a few are reminiscing about those prices and deals, I sure am, I couldn't afford every sweet offer sadly
Yeah, it was a good sale for me in the end, (not my wallet) spend a huge amount, but picked up some real awesome bargins and a massive amount of wishlisted items.
Averaging under $1 for a lot too.
Hard to justify anything now, the prices are nowhere near as cheap as last week, and I've got a ton of stuff to play with.
My view: People were upset about being misled by inaccurate ads that claimed that the PA sale was ending. It caused people to accelerate buying, when that was not necessary and maybe not in their financial best interest. And Daz did that TWICE! Nobody like being jerked around like that. Many people had already picked up what they wanted from the PA offers, that got quite repetitive. People were excited for the real Daz+ sale to start with its anticipated new discounts, bundles, BYOBs, etc. that have historically been part of that. Instead we got the giant distraction of the Premier level of Daz+ and its inevitable flawed roll out. Is there a Daz+ sale going on today. I was so distracted by Premier, I didn't even notice?
That might be a good plan for people who don't already have an existing Daz+ membership. If I did that, I'd lose the 2 full years left on my Daz+ subscription.
I agree, this new arrangement could work out to be pretty good, depending on how one usees it as you point out. There will always be another big sale even if it's not exactly like this past one.
yes, a month of DAZ+ is not out of the question if the sale picks up and there is something I want, $9 to grab the coupons alone over the cusp of a month worth it
I won't touch Premier with my setup where PostGreSQL won't run and Smart Content doesn't exist though, as I doubt those plugins will work eithout it
Also, I'd suggest sitting on that free Character Bundle coupon until later this week. Rumor has it that there will be a new bundle with functionality you've never seen before, and it might be worth using on it. But of course... that's just rumor ;)
