OperatorJack Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 something something 20% less Not really because they're driving the prices up. So you're thinking you're getting a good deal but you're actually still paying full price. Source: F-5 on 20% "discount" is about the same price as the MiG 21 /да бойз/ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattebubben Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) Not really because they're driving the prices up. So you're thinking you're getting a good deal but you're actually still paying full price. Source: F-5 on 20% "discount" is about the same price as the MiG 21 But the Mig-21 has been out for 2 years... So the Price is not the same as it was on release... You cant Expect a Newly released product to have the same price as one that has been out for a few years. in two years time im sure the F-5E will be the same price as the Mig-21 is today (20% less then it is today and the mig-21 might be even lower priced). The newly released Products have higher price tags not because they drive up the prices but because they are new and as they become older the prices will go down to 20%. So if you buy it on Pre purchase you will get it cheaper then it will be for the next 1-2 years (Except for future sales ofc).

cichlidfan Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 You cant Expect a Newly released product to have the same price as one that has been out for a few years. Actually, considering that each aircraft should be using code developed for previous aircraft, the newer module should be less expensive.

mattebubben Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) Actually, considering that each aircraft should be using code developed for previous aircraft, the newer module should be less expensive. Dont really have anything to do with Production cost. And also since most of the Modules are from different devs they use different codes. But mostly its not about production cost. Just like games in general they tend to cost the same when they are New and then the price is lowered over time. And yes they reuse code but its still a ton of work for a module. The Code is always evolving and being updated for every module they do (and very likely its updated or parts are remade during the making of a module) Edited May 21, 2016 by mattebubben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're thinking you're getting a good deal but you're actually still paying full price. Source: F-5 on 20% "discount" is about the same price as the MiG 21 +1 A-10C was 60 back in the day and the prices on modules got down. Cost of production can really drive de ASKED price up. The PAYED price is up to the free market. Personally I wait at least for release to buy it with some of my 83$/points/marbles or a sale... or both. I have also little less time and a lot of other planes/helicopters I didn't flew enough and I start to have a feeling that buying into modules like a collectionneur will just create the illusion I will have more time to play... :cry: Edited May 21, 2016 by zaelu [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I5 4670k, 32GB, GTX 1070, Thrustmaster TFRP, G940 Throttle extremely modded with Bodnar 0836X and Bu0836A, Warthog Joystick with F-18 grip, Oculus Rift S - Almost all is made from gifts from friends, the most expensive parts at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
