F1 2020 How do I buy the base game?

[Bram Hengeveld]

I have waited 3 extra days to purchase F1 2020 as I can't be bothered with the Schumacher edition. The game was supposed to unlock on the 10th of July and now when going to the Steam store I am met with one option and that is to buy:

F1® 2020: Seventy Edition DLC for 54 euros.

Again I cannot be bothered with DLC for this game. When can I just buy the base game and just play what it says to be what this game is about: F1 2020?

I assume you know about these guys?

<mod edit: link removed, i buy my games the official way>

Just activate the game with the Steam key (in Steam)

So it's not possible to just buy just F1 2020? I either need to go to an off-steam page or buy a DLC i don't want?

Just checked myself and... same as you Bram, only deluxe and 70 are available at the moment : I think it is part of codies commercial strategy, apparently standard version will be available on july 14th for my country.

Scummy move from codies, why am i not surprised

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Really absurd. Ended up buying the "70s version" as that seems to be the most basic version available.

Game better be good this time for this price.

I may be missing the point, I am not sure of the issue here, as it appears, you seem to be complaining about a free DLC, as the price is the same as would be expected for such a new game, go in to "Manage DLC" and remove.
