    It is not on sale. It is a new 'feature' of the asset store that if you are able to upgrade the asset it will list as a sale for you and show the discount comparing upgrade price to full price.

    Oh ok - was wondering why it would show the same price as the update cost was and thought it was a quite generous offer. Thanks for clarifying!

    Easy Scatter by Hedgehog is now for sale at $1. Not sure if this is an actual sale or not.

    Do you guys want this thread to become a mirror for automatic bot results or would you prefer it to be an author-led thread where people post their own assets on sale and maybe ones they like?

    Now people get a commission for assets, we'll probably see a lot of bot driven results popping up. Thoughts?

    I was just wondering why the heck there are so many deal threads. If UT could automate the deal reporting we wouldn't need any threads at all, but we technically only need one until then. Who posts isn't too important; just don't make my new posts list all bot posts :p

    I left a note with community managers, but if anyone would like to chime in with their thoughts please do as I'm certain they'll take that into account. There is no rule against people posting huge lists that a bot or search has pulled up (at the time of writing), but I'm not convinced that's any value or any benefit to end users. I would rather see steam like curated content lists so at least there's interesting things to look at.

    Sometimes I pop an asset in my sig if I'm given a copy to check out or I just like the asset. I think others do that too.

    I think it should boil down to content authors (predicated on the assumption they have to give the commission). asset_store_deals wasn't hard to find online (and there's a few others like that). I just follow asd site, this thread and another one more site. Apart from that the "new" section of UT also has deals at times (since beta assets might be sold cheaper before full release).

    UT might also want to show when there are deals but unsure what's a good trade-off (e.g. I can see asset authors intentionally setting a high price and dropping it every now and than if UT will feature assets on sale which is probably not healthy for authors and buyers).

    I've already injected my opinion on this one before. I prefer it to be author-led or the occasional user who spots an item on sale and wants to pass on the good news. I am against making this thread a method by which some make a profit on for their own gain.

    The bot type deals are useful to me. I've found many deals I wouldn't have usually found.
    Also isn't the propose of commissions for people to spread the word?

    I prefer curated content, but on the other hand I usually scan the bot deals for very high discounts. If a discount is 70% or more I often take a look but having a bot tell me something I don't know what is has a 15% discount is ridiculous.

    OK I think it's probably best this thread stays for humans. Nothing stops asset bot / commission guys having their own threads.

    Unfortunately, without the bots we would miss half of the actual 'sale' items since Unity doesn't have a functional sale filter other than the daily one.

    This just highlights the uselessness of the 'on_sale' flag in the asset search. It is showing yesterdays 24hr sale item only. Doesn't even show the current day's item.

    Is there a official sale going on?
    I found those official discounted assets, but i guess there are more.
    Uber Shader 50% off
    Bird Flock Bundle 33% off
    Is there an overview anywhere?

    As far as I can see these assets are not on sale. Are your sure you're not just seeing an "update" price discount? For Uber for example the Upgrade prices are the following:
    I quess you just own Relief Terrain Pack here. Just as you probably own one of the following, which would allow you to buy Bird Flock Bundle for 33% less.

    In the new store front design (aka Asset Store Beta), there's a link called "On Sale" sitting in the subnavigation.
    The old store front offers a "On Sale This Week" (see) and a "24 hour sale" (see) banner.

    Yes thank you, that's it.
    But i also saw this sale badge on the overview, so i thought its a hidden sale.
