For 25 USD its a good deal. Preorderd!

 

Yeah it's a great deal and I almost feel guilty! I am trying to promote to a couple of friends that have DCSW loaded and some that are teetering on getting into DCS. This is a must have for the DCS naval aviators!

 

Thank you ED!!

Hello,

 

Generally, Valve/Steam does not allow pre-orders of DLC products (The Viper and Tomcat were exceptions). As such, a pre-order on Steam is not an option for us. Sorry.

 

We are though trying to work with Steam on a means for a discount to clients that purchased the Hornet on Steam and wish to buy Supercarrier on Steam. No promises though.

 

Thanks

 

What about users that have bought the hornet via steam and want to preorder supercarrier on ed shop ? Discount doesn't seem to apply.

They are not seen as hornet owner?

Please wait we are looking for solutions for steam users.

Pre-order DCS: Supercarrier and save 30% off the $49.99 retail value. Owners of DCS: F/A-18C Hornet will receive an additional 20% off, for a total savings of 50%. This is on top of ED Miles you may apply.

 

Incredibly generous! Not too generous I hope. Thanks heaps ED!! :thumbup:

Big Thanks to ED

 

...for reconsidering the discount. I was expecting a $60 module with the announced 30% off (~ $42) and now it just was $25, instantly bought. No need to spend miles IMHO, I'll save those up for some campaigns probably. What a great move.

Oh and that sale...

I've no real interest in naval ops, but at less than 20 quid I splashed and we'll see if I get around to trying it. There are bound to be campaigns that will require it, so it's in my virtual dockyard now.

 

They should make a RN carrier to give the navops fans a real challenge, instead of these floating airports!

Great discount indeed.

 

 

But I would have gladly paid more in case that helped making it perform to the max of its opportunities in an overseeable amount of time. ;)

But then people like myself wouldn't have bought it ;)

 

Placing it at an attractive price to those sitting on the fence or not entirely convinced they want it, but will anyway at that price, is key to making money and, indeed, a success, I think.

On Steam it is possible to grant owners of a product a price reduction for another product. It happened to owners of CMANO, who were able to buy CMO for half the price. Maybe you could ask Valve about how they made it happen.

So, then we should expect uboat modules for simulation in dcs?

I'm waiting for this big time! :thumbup:

DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

I honestly kind of worry with the discount. It feel like a stealing. But what do I know with the business ? Just hope ED still make a alot of profit of it.
I get that feeling too.

Spent less than $17 to get the supercarrier, Su-30 flanker and the upgraded Russian carrier after using the pre-order discount, Hornet's discount and the mileage on my account.

 

Do not really need any other modules now, I feel the urge to support ED somehow.

 

 

Edit

I look forward to getting the dcs warthog 2 and the Blackshark 3.

I also found that 50% off at that price is a really good deal. But I'm not sure that the rate

 

(Price of module) ./. (Cost of manpower)

 

is so much lower at the super carrier than complex modules like Hornet, Viper or Tomcat.

 

As said it certainly feels great. So I am grateful.
