i said this a while back. Being a Star Citizen backer from many years ago, they offered hangar modules where you could purchase different hangars and view your purchased aircraft. I think this would be a great addition to DCS and another revenue stream.
1. Give us better fleshed out FPS mechanics for free.
2. offer a free base hangar feature that replaces the main menu. All your aircraft are there. Just walk up to the one you wish to fly and GET IN!
3. Offer purchasable, increasingly elaborate hangars.
4. Customizable characters with purchasable accouterments.
5. Profit!
The free benefits of a fleshed out FPS greatly outweigh the monetization. The Combined Arms modules then becomes a very valuable module with an Arma-like experience.
ED just hire me!
