Thanks Wags!

 

Hi all, a little update:

 

Yes, we are still pushing very hard to release DCS World 2.0 and the Nevada map open alphas by the end of this month. At this time, all looks good as we kill bugs and add some more content. However, as we continue testing, it is of course possible that a blocking bug could rear its ugly head and change our plans a bit.

 

We are proud that we have a good record in achieving our pre-sell / open beta release dates. Over the last few years, we only slightly missed announced open beta dates twice (Fw 190D due to internal server issues and the L-39 due to the release version not being ready) and in both cases it was only by a single day.

 

We hope to have DCS World 2.0 and the NTTR map to you soon.

 

Thanks!

Probably around the same time as you do. ;)

The big sales (i.e. -70% or so) are a thing of the past AFAIK; pretty sure someone at ED's said so a while ago. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

Correct, Sales w/ Large % Off are done, and smaller sales will be further in between..

[SkateZilla]

Nevada includes campaigns currently?

 

 

 

See the Product Page:

For those that pre-purchase prior to October 1st, 2015, you will receive a 20% discount and two free Red Flag campaigns (one for the F-15C and one for the A-10C). For those that pre-purchase between October 1st and the Open Alpha release in late November, you will receive a 20% discount and one free Red Flag campaign. Both of these options also include a 20% bonus savings on future purchases at full price.

[rjetster1]

Everybody wins if you preorder!

[Flogger23m]

Guys - products cost money. It's pretty straightforward. If you have a problem with it, don't buy it. You don't HAVE to own or install every module...

 

True, but if the goal is to maximize sale numbers then that isn't good.

 

The $50 is much cheaper than flight lessons, sourcing and renting or buying the actual aircraft.

 

Comparing games to physical aircraft or training lessons is down right silly.

 

It can't seriously surprise you if you've been playing games for any length of time over the past several years especially - with the rise of tons of DLC for every AAA title out now. Which, by the way, never goes on sale.

 

Which AAA games have DLC that never goes on sale? Only a single one series, Mass Effect, fits that criteria that I can think of. Essentially every other title massively discounts addons/DLCs rather quickly.

 

Except more often than not, foregoing the purchase of that DLC breaks the compatibility for multiplayer with people who do own the DLCs.

 

This depends on the game. DCS is an example of a game in which DLC will break the compatibility of multiplayer. Those that do not own the NTTR and future maps won't be able to play missions with those that do own it. That is my main concern regarding expensive maps.

 

Here you're meant to pick and choose what you want to fly - if you want everything, you're going to have to suck it up. If you want to wait for the sales to buy everything, you're going to have to expect to pay that extra 10% now.

 

Some of the modules are now roughly twice as much as they used to be, so it isn't exactly 10% more now. I think the big problem is the discount amount over time. When the UH-1 came out it when down to $8 very quickly, which is rather awkward. That high of a discount occurred too soon. On the other hand, $24 for the A-10C, a title which is many years old and has been cheaper many times in the past isn't that great of a discount.

 

I would prefer a system which starts out with minimal discounts and as the title aged became discounted more. It would be more in line with the rest of the industry and allows impulse buyers to grab a module or two on the cheap that they wouldn't have bought otherwise.

[Captain Midnight]

Not much of a sale this time around.

 

I'll wait for a bigger one and buy some modules then.

 

Same here. Modules are still to expensive.

[NineLine]

Same here. Modules are still to expensive.

 

I wouldnt expect the sales to change much, its been stated that the days of large % off are a thing of the past.

[Captain Midnight]

We'll, good luck. I'll watch the sale to see if it gets within my price range.

[TJTAS]

If we are this close to release when are we going to see the NTTR in our profiles (For those of us who bought the A-10c while it was a beta).

[DieHard]

Yep I don't think they have ever strayed on that plan since announcing earlier that NTTR and 2.0 would arrive late November.

 

Really looking forward to this, hat's off to ED.

In fact they are running a big sale apparently, going to have to pick up another module or two as well. Lord knows I have more now than I will probably ever get time to learn them all , but gotta support them!

 

I came to DCS four or five years ago, they were talking about it, then!

 

2 weeks...

[Big Nuts]

So the Nevada theater has come from the work of the Fighter Ops team???!

Have you checked here: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/modules/nttr_terrain/

 

I thought people said it was showing up already, but I might be mistaken.... make sure you log in first.

Checked before I asked the question ;)

[dartuil]

50$ for a map is ok for me.

I can go up to 100$ for a good modern fighter like rafale or typhoon.

[Justificus]

Yes, mine is there.

[S-GERAT]

I think that they should adapt the price to the development time of the module. I can pay more than 60 € for the Hornet, but not 50 or 60 for a ww2 fighter which has been done in ten times less time..

 

Until now I was buying the modules that I'm not much interested at great discounts, in order to collect them and support ED, because I rarely fly them, but maybe it is going to change in the future.

OT ON:

+1 ED is selling dreaming for me. When I heard NTTR pre-order my card was in my hand before I get in the store.

There are thing I will not buy in discount but in full price.

I was in work when I saw it on ED forum. Best day eva this with M2000c :pilotfly:

OT off.

[TOYKILLA]

I have preorder the A-10c. Do I get NTTR for free now?
