Tofolo Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 I understand the new rewards system, although I am with tough_boy about the selection of the planes. In my case I already bought the mustang long ago, and I don't really fancy the Dora when the Spitfire or the P-47 are on list, so my question is: wouldn't it be possible to use the data from the Backers' rewards selection page in order to let the users choose which aircraft they would like to fly and then afterwards acquire the rest? Thanks

Narushima Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 ED didnt make these promises... this was the best compromise they could come up with based on what RRG set up... They said they'll do their best to honour kickstarter commitments. This doesn't look like their best. Not at all. It's a cheap cop-out. 1 FW 190 Dora performance charts: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=128354

Darkmater Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Oh and Thanks for not separating DCS world into different products by era, I just didn't understand that move.
dwpenney Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 I am happy with this. It could be worse, much worse. Fridge ---------- Things which do you no good in aviation: 1) Altitude above you; 2) Runway behind you; 3) Fuel in the truck; 4) The airspeed you don't have.

Art-J Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Well, in my opinion the original Kickstarter campaign was bulls..t anyway. There was no way in hell the project would end up being profitable with all the goodies promised for unrealistic prices. A "mini Ponzi-scheme" for DCS if you ask me. The offer above sounds much more plausible, I admit however some folks ain't going to be happy about lack of plane swap option. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.
SkateZilla Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 if all else fails, sell your extra or unwanted P-51D License Key for funds towards the aircraft you want, or trade.

ED Team NineLine Posted July 7, 2014 ED Team Posted July 7, 2014 Something to remember as well guys... the maps will probably sell around 39-49 bucks... they have as much work in them as a DCS level aircraft module (if not more)... so when you are valuing your rewards, take that into account...

Same here, but making a mission you would have to sive through the list trying to find what you need. Unless there was a drop menu [with in the ME] with era units.

USA_Recon Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Confused on July Update Maybe I misunderstood the original backer, when I put up $85... I see in this update this is what I get now: $80-$99 Silver Backer credit in manuals DCS: P-51D Mustang and print-ready PDF manual Normandy Map DCS: Fw 190 D-9 Dora, Alpha access, and print-ready PDF manual DCS: Bf-109K, Alpha access, and print-ready PDF manual DCS: Spitfire, Alpha access, and print-ready PDF manual But the plane I most wanted was the p47 Thunderbolt... ??? So basically I lose the p47, which is the one I mostly wanted and get 2 planes I might not fly ? Maybe I am misreading ?

Cnuke Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 I dont think ED was consulted on a lot of the aspects of the KS, that is an unfortunate part.... ED was certainly sleeping during the KS campaign. :smilewink:

ED Team NineLine Posted July 7, 2014 ED Team Posted July 7, 2014 ED was certainly sleeping during the KS campaign. :smilewink: Well... not sure that is fair... I am sure it was assumed that RRG could handle their own project and not need babysitting... specially as they had experiences in the industry already... but I really dont wanna get to deep in discussing RRG or any failings... want to look forward... not back.

HotTom Posted July 7, 2014 Posted July 7, 2014 Very fair solution. I'm a bit bewildered by all the bellyaching from folks who easily could have ended up with nothing to show for their money at all. ED was under no obligation to pick it up when RRG dropped it. Thank you, ED, for salvaging this project! I will certainly support it as it goes ahead!
