Factorio Forums

I wanted to buy the game as a gift, but the website was impossible to actually find the buy page for the base game while I was logged in. I spent 20 minutes with half a dozen people on discord and we eventually guessed the url:

https://factorio.com/buy

https://factorio.com/space-age/buy

I'm getting kinda old and it's been a few years since I built web pages with an optimized a user funnel, but maybe as a start the Content pages for both Factorio and Factorio: Space Age should link to their respective Buy pages, you know, so people can actually buy the game?

There are big buttons "Buy Factorio" and "Buy Factorio: Space Age" if you are not logined. If you have already bought base Factorio and logged in then only "Buy Factorio: Space Age" will be shown. If you have bought it as well this button will also be hidden. Quite logical.

Quite logical.

Only if buying as a gift is very rare.

I think the link "Buy Factorio: Space Age again" is much better than completely hiding the purchase page.

It's very weird, when logged in with my account that has bought both the base game and space age from the website, the only place I could find a 'buy' button was by clicking the 'Game' submenu: Notice how it only gives an option to buy space age.

Now clicking the 'Space Age' menu button, doesn't give me a buy option at all.

And hovering over the menu buttons don't show either.

So hard to log out

Logging back in is the hard part!
It could also takes a while to work out that you should log out.
