Gary Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 well, ED were consistently saying that Viper would not be on sale for a long time. then we got 50% sale. do those who bought it recently for a full price have a 'free choice', too? :-) "Everything is subject to change" you seem to forget ED are constantly saying this too. And just to be clear - my post was based on this being a jesture by ED in response to COVID-19 and people being stuck at home.

veenee Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 just saying it is cheeky on their part. there are a lot of other planes which could have been discounted instead, if it was about gesture. So many modules, so little time... www.mikphotography.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomCatGoad Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 ED haven't released there official statement yet have they. Could it be full a sale not just the viper? And just steam fired off early on the viper (because steam does do odd things). Sent from my HD1913 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I definitely understand the disappointment of those who pre-ordered the Viper after being assured that it would not be discounted for the a long time. (And then finding out they bought a barely alpha level piece of software) On the other hand we need to help each other while there's a global crisis going on and we should be thinking about others before we think of ourselves at least when it comes to trivial matters of video game planes.

AdmiralQuality Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Anyway, lesson learned. After getting shafted on the Anton and now the Viper too, I will *never* buy a product in pre-sales again and will be advising the 6000 people in the DCS forum I run to do the same.

Kang Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Very big thanks for making it possible to trial almost all of the modules!

DW2020 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 WOW Todays announcement was immense!! BIG savings on modules and terrains so I treated myself to the Persian Gulf terrain and am seriously tempted by the Nevada one also. Great to see free trials on my if not all of the aircraft to give everyone a chance to "try before buy". Blue Skies Rattler21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
