The first time this was quoted I couldn't find the post at 1C in Oleg's ready room or any SoW thread .. alot of pages so I may have missed it.
"news" posted, especially "qoutes" should link to source material IMO, so at least it can be viewed in context, and can be seen accurately.
Something tells me that they're only going to loose money (and customers) this way... Especially if SoW will follow the same direction as IL-2 as going.
Good. If they hadn't pissed away their company's future on free addons in the past, Maddox Games would be able to afford more than a skeleton crew of developers and we'd all have been playing SoW for the last 18 months.
where is there discussion of Rise of Flight going great war 2?
I think that is a reasonable way to go.. and I have no issues with it.. They went with paid add ons for IL2.. and they sold well.. AEP, PF,PE2 46.. I see nothing wrong with paid add ons at all.. I know will be getting a good product.
If you can pay for expansions with several planes and stuff like in IL-2, ok.
But if they dare to make us pay to each airplane separately, I assure you they won't die of natural causes. :twisted:
Just kidding, still, I would *HATE* to pay for each airplane separately, and wouldn't do it at all.
Remember the Pe2 and dreaded Boontybox expansion...that was close enough to paying for one plane...we all still did it though.
well that was the reason i never bought ROF in the first place. But isn't there a great future for Modders with SOW? when you have to pay for each addon?? btw does each add-on mean not ony planes but also groundobjects, arfields, textures, etc?
bah if that happens i seriously thinking of going back to online racing or just stay focussed on Il-2 here with MODS.
Regardless, and you can gnash your teeth as much as you like.. Oleg is still the best maker of WWII aircraft and we will buy it.. those that say they wont are lying to themselves..
I have eight IL2 bought for games.. the original, forgotten battles, ace expansion pack, pacific fighters, ostfront, battle over europe, IL2 complete edition, IL2 1946.. and never regretted paying for them.
If thats the only way to get upgrades to the game and flyable aircraft then I'll gladly pay.. wev'e all seen the standard of the aircraft that are coming, I suspect there will be thousands that will gladly pay as well.
Just because there are changes that may be different to what has gone before, doesn't mean its all doom and gloom.. we just have to be prepared to do business in a different way.
If we were scared of change, there wouldn't be thousands of people on this site now would there.
