Well I brought my TV few years ago at a definite price. Since that day, my TV didn't show improvements, better image quality, better sound. Also it didn't build automatically build up new display port, WiFi connectivity, and did not goes to 4K (it's full-HD). If I want that features, I should buy add-on modules or a new TV.

 

DCS did show many improvement in performance, image quality, add-on modules, etc.. so I think it's fair that if today I buy Ka-50 for "x" $ and I could fly that in DCS 1.2.16, to buy it in DCS 2.0 it could cost "x" + something.

The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

Look at it this way what games have you played more than DCS? Think of the value you get for your money. I have spent 60 bucks on triple a games that I play way less.

 

DCS doesn't cost any money, planes do. I spent 42$ on Aviodev C-101 that I played 15 minutes total since January. Great value for money indeed.

Then blame yourself for deciding on the purchase.

Anyone know with some certainty how upgading to 2.0 will work?

 

Will 1.2 upgrade to 2.0, or 1.5 upgrade to 2.0, or will I just delete both 1.2 & 1.5 and 2.0 will be its on stand alone download?

 

Thanks

Bumping this gentlemans question as it got buried under OT and went unanswered. I'm curious to know also.

I do. But I based my purchase decision on ED newsletter that falsely claimed that the model is complete and the armed version was scheduled for February 2015.

I hope that the devs and ED have also learned from this lesson. But I'm now much more cautious about anything that I read in the ED announcements.

IIRC 1.2 should update to 1.5 and 1.5 beta should update to 2.0 beta. But as usual, everything is subject to change ;)

I think we are overthinking about this "prices may increase" stuff. I just think it is a marketing move :p worst case scenario the delta-price is going to be 0.50 euros :p

Only guessing, but I imagine all updates will be in the same way as usual via the updater.

If I am wrong I am sure we will know prior to it happening.

 

 

Again lets not focus on the price as the issue is different for everyone, back to discussing the weekend update of the 27th

I'm sitting here, Saturday morning, in front of my (exclusive) gaming machine which runs one game only. I tap my fingers on the desk, waiting impatiently for some hint of the Pre-Alpha release.... uh, Alpha.... um, Pre-Beta.... er, Beta.... ugh.... availability for my machine to run the NTTR map. In essence, I'm expecting my first born child and am very very impatient.

 

First and foremost, super extra ultra important point: money spent on ED is irrelevant. Even if the A-10C was 10 times what I paid for it, I'd have robbed two banks, quit eating for a month and sold 4 pints of my own blood (half of what I got) to fly it. But, today, it only costs forty dollars. Back in 2010, I paid $60. Last year, I bought it again. Also last year, I bought the Mig 21 and earlier this year I bought the Mig 15. I don't fly either one because I'm not that up on my Russian. No, I'm not rich by any means nor would I seriously rob banks. DCS is my hobby and I need Eagle Dynamics to continue doing the miracles it's doing.

 

With that said, let's get on with releasing Nevada. I am so excited!

The Hornet is best at killing things on the ground. Now, if we could just get a GAU-8 in the nose next to the AN/APG-65, a titanium tub around the pilot, and a couple of J-58 engines in the tail...

ED isn't going to release a major update on the weekend, folks. It's a "all hands on deck" event for them. They'll get to work Monday.

Still, I'm going to refresh my browser now!

I don't see why not. They released the P-51 on a Sunday in 2012. Yes, it may not happen over the weekend still, but it has been done before. :)
