ED Team NineLine Posted March 8, 2017 ED Team Posted March 8, 2017 Thanks for posting that! Putting info on facebook and not their own forums pisses me off. I don't do facebook and never will so I'm surprised that they would neglect their own site like this... Thanks again! It will come out on Friday as normal with the Newsletter.

PicksKing Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Maybe I got something wrong but how does this Assets-thing work? What if I enter a Normandy+Assests Pack server without owning the Assets Pack? No access to this server for me or is it only for the Combined Arms compatibility? The only thing that I can exclude on my own is that the units could be invisible for me :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Gainward RTX 2080 OC | i7 8700K OC | 32GB G.Skill RipJaws V DDR4 3600 MHz | MSI Z370-A PRO | Samsung 970 EVO 500GB

Ala13_ManOWar Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 C'mon mates, we don't even have a pre-order day and you're already asking for features without even knowing or tasting the full ones we get with this. Human kind is incorrigible . Hopefully the upcoming trailer won't look too shabby either .. :DSadly I didn't see your message until now I already know Normandy is being released to hype myself a bit.

Buzzles Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) If a server is using the Asset pack, you wont be able to enter the server if you dont own it as well. Hmm... EA did this with the Battlefield games, the result is have and have nots and a fractured MP base. Be interesting to see what happens. Either no-one will use it or it'll be mandatory by default online. [Edit] I am apparently blind Edited March 8, 2017 by Buzzles Missed the pack info Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!
iLOVEwindmills Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 If a server is using the Asset pack, you wont be able to enter the server if you dont own it as well. Does that not pretty much make it mandatory to buy it? What mission maker is going to make a WW2 mission that has no WW2 ground units in it?

cichlidfan Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Will the KS backers (who've already got Normandy) be eligible for a pre-release discount on the assets pack? Or will we have to buy it seperately at full price after it goes live? Note: Those that took part in the DCS: World War II Kickstarter campaign, and provided a high enough contribution to receive the Normandy map, will receive the assets pack for free.

Be interesting to see what happens. Either no-one will use it or it'll be mandatory by default online. Either way, question: Will the KS backers (who've already got Normandy) be eligible for a pre-release discount on the assets pack? Or will we have to buy it seperately at full price after it goes live? Need to read the text, If you get the Normandy Map as a backer you get the asset pack as well.

Skjold Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Beautiful map and models, however... I will not purchase this due to what i perceive to be a bad business model that will only serve to further fragment our already small player base. 2

What mission maker is going to make a WW2 mission that has no WW2 ground units in it? I would think anyone that wants to have a great WWII experience will want both, but its not mandatory unless you are playing someone elses mission that used them.

OperatorJack Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) Normandy Map doesnt have to just be WWII, it would be a nice Early Korea Sabre/MiG Map too. I'd rather actually have a Korea map... In fact Normandy couldn't possibly be more different to Korea without leaving the planet. Edited March 8, 2017 by OperatorJack /да бойз/ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Medic8ed Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Looks beautiful, can't wait to fly over it and finally learn Combined Arms gameplay.... Those pictures of tanks rolling through the fields with early morning fog and the new lighting system look amazing! I am sure people will make some amazing missions for this! And if people don't like the way it is being sold, then by all means, no one is forcing you to purchase it! Those of us who have been waiting for this to appear in DCS will not care hardly at all about this, since the price is hardly different than a new module.
Sverre Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 I can see why people don't like the way ED did this, but it's not THAT bad if you get the bundle for 47.99 (59.99 on release).

ED Team NineLine Posted March 8, 2017 ED Team Posted March 8, 2017 But once the bundle isn't available? What then? How many times has ED had sales over the last year? Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**
OperatorJack Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 How many times has ED had sales over the last year? Yes but that isn't the point is it, if you want to have an actual WW2 experience you're going to buy it. You said it yourself you won't be able to play any servers with the assets if you don't own them yourself. What a fantastic way to fragment the community. 1 /да бойз/ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
