The release of the game should have been 12:00 here in EU and still no Speedstorm that we can buy? Don't say you will launch a game and then in the end don't have the game released on the time...

I have the same Problem. When I try to buy the Ultimate Pack it says I need to buy the Game first. But the game can´t be bought.

#

This exact same thing happened when Dreamlight Valley was released, took them two hours after release to sort it.

#

hue!! did not know that, and i played it alot, maybe the two teams should talk to each other

#

I was in the discord for that when it was happening, apparently it’s Steams issue. They aren’t very good with the founders pack thing, they need to bundle the packs with the game which they haven’t done as yet

whole shell
#

The founder's packs are listed as DLC, and in order to purchase any of those you need to "own the main game". The problem is, there is no purchase option for the "main game". WTF?

#

BTW, this is not Steam's faults. Gameloft didn't properly label the packs.

#

faults= fault

give them time, if you have played the beta you know, the time is worth it

Fingers crossed we get to download it soon 🤞

Pretty sloppy for such veterans as GL, Steam and Disney.

vapid bone
#

Definitely

But I guess even Michael Jordan can throw a brick from now and then.

#

For those millennials out there: Michael Jordan was the greatest NBA player that ever existed. Kinda like Lebron James, only better.

#

i don't know sports or even basket ball but i do know big names

vapid bone
#

You know millennials are born between 81 and 96?

sudden sun
#

yes

#

I finished High School in 96 😛

vapid bone
#

I’m a millennial (🤮) and I know who Michael Jordan is 😂 born in 85

whole shell
#

That's cool!

sudden sun
#

everyone has seen spacejam so duh!!! everyone know who michael jordan is

whole shell
#

Everyone knowS, Space Jam and Michael Jordan with uppercase, since they're proper names. You did get the onomatopoeia right, though.

#

thanks Professor 😂 i do not need a teacher tho or is this spelling of tho not good? 😂

#

😛

sudden sun
#

#

Anyway, here's hoping for the game to be available on Steam.

#

fingers crossed!

Disney Speedstorm and Gameloft, please fix the Steam issue. It says that you can’t buy any of the founders packs because you don’t own the game, but the game is NOT available to get for free or for money or anything. So your just stuck waiting and can’t play. 😒

I gifted the Ultimate pack to my son and he can't accept the gift, cos he also needs base game ... Whoever came up with idea to sell it like DLCs should be fired immediately ... never saw something so stupid like this on Steam ...

#

Well this sucks

#

I'll give it a few days then try again

#

Having the same issue. Steam wants you to own the base game first but there is not base game

#

Hopefully i have preorder from another platform, but i want play as well on Steam for most part.

Steam always unlocks the new games around 6 p.m. CET. Therefore, I believe that the problem will be solved in just under 2 hours.

They could fix the Steam issue by bundling it like other Early Access Free-to-play Games.

The bundles include the (free-to-play) game itself PLUS the dlc.

Apparently you need to assign a value to the free-to-play game (for example 5 bucks) in the bundle and simply subtract it from the Founders Pack cost.

(These games do not sell the free-to-play game for 5 bucks -> it's just something they need to set to make the bundles work on Steam)

steam users right now

lusty lynx
#

That's why pre-orders / early access for free-to-play games on Steam are bundles which include the game PLUS the founder's pack.

#

So I can buy it now, see if it works for you too

sudden sun
#

yes

#

thx for the heads up

#

@cyan palm @cold mulch @rocky skiff @balmy sedge @vapid bone @fringe cipher @whole shell @blissful kraken @half finch it should work now i can install it now

cold mulch
#

Confirmed.

lusty lynx
#

The DLCs shouldn't be listed outside the bundle (-> They should be made unavailable / N/A outside the bundles)

#

Otherwise the first buying option shown (for people who go on the founder's pack pages) doesn't work.

#

Solution would be to simply set the DLCs itself to N/A and only have them available as part of the bundles.

it works super great for me

lusty lynx
#

Cuz you bought a bundle.

#

If you don't already have a bundle (/ the base game) you'll still get the same error pressing the first buying option on each dlc xD

sudden sun
#

thats becouse you must have the standard bundle, deluxe bundle or ultimate bundle

#

they have said this 1000 x

twilit stirrup
#

The problem is fixed guys

lusty lynx
#

Three standalone buying options are now gone :3

sudden sun
#

if the problem is still there restart steam

#

How about the gift to friends before the problem fixed?

sudden sun
#

#

#

#

It doens't work, the gift i sent is still without the base game ...

# rocky skiff so i guess i have to refuse the gift & buy it again? What a let down ...

You have two options:

a) Buy one of the bundles on the account you gifted it to (your son's account) -> then he can also redeem the gifted DLC. (It needs to be a DIFFERENT founder's pack than the one you gifted)

b) Decline the gift. This will issue a refund to the original sender (your account). Keep in mind that you are currently not able to gift this game anymore. So you'd need to purchase it directly on your son's account.
