On the

DCS World Helicopter Autumn Sale Pack

 

 

 

What if we already have one of the choppers? Can we get the other 3 *only* with this upcoming deal and knock off 1/4 of the price?? I already bought the Huey.

[BlacleyCole]

What if yo have all four are they going to credit the difference , I doubt it. You just get an extra copy of the one that you can give away

[ebabil]

My mom once told me, "it never hurts to ask". :D

just need the Gazelle, so I am out here. Next time maybe

[Kolyma]

Is that ok to gift a module or sell it to someone else? If so, how do you go about doing it?

 

Does anyone know if this is possible now with online activation? I want to get the 4-pack and give 2 of the helos I already have to a 2nd account of mine.

 

Possible?

Selling keys is in violation of the EULA and will get you banned. Discussing the distribution of keys here is also a no-no, though the new keyless DRM ties modules directly to your account.

As of right now, there is no way to gift modules, but ED have said hoping to implement this in the future.

I dunno if there's a lot of mischievous intent in the thread here so far. Most of us are probably spending more on this sim, considering peripherals and modules, than any other piece of software we own.

 

It is indeed totally valid to ask what happens with duplicate license purchases and the possible options.

 

What does happen in the tally of modules I own if I purchase a multi-pack containing a module I already own? All-in-all, between my son and I, plus a non-profit youth cadet program I command, I have 7 copies (and login accounts) of DCS world with various levels of module parity. Previously I've asked ED about bulk discounted purchase of modules for non-profits but got a reply they didn't do that. Shame because those kinds of offers are generally available. Heck, Google gives us an unlimited Google Org account for free and we've got over 1,000 usernames with TB's & TB's of drive space used. </rant>

Mischievous intent or no, it is a violation of the license agreement you accepted when purchasing the software. Purchasing a lot of that software and/or spending a lot of money with other companies that make peripherals to enjoy it fully doesn't give you the right to violate that agreement.

 

Not my rules, it is how it is...and since licenses are now directly linked to your ED account for many products, as they will be soon for all modules, it's something of a moot point.

 

If you already own a %age of the modules and the bulk package is still a net discount vs. purchasing remaining modules individually, you win...if not, just avoid the package until such time as ED implements gifting modules. Buying a package and giving away your duplicate keys is a generous thought but could also easily be twisted by someone looking to turn a quick buck, and has been in the past. :dunno:

 

As for your agreement with Google, a multimillion dollar company has a little more flexibility in this regard, wouldn't you agree?

Hen does the sell end I forgot

9/5-9/30

[swatstar98]

So, what end's up with us? The helo lover's who already own 1 2 o 3 of them

[Kolyma]

wouldn't you agree?

I don't agree. And I don't find your tone helpful at all. I suppose it's good you advertise what you have to sell.

[feefifofum]

I'm not trying to have a tone, I'm just saying the rules regarding the buying and selling of license keys through unofficial sources are very clearly written. Hell, they're displayed at the top of the forum every time you log in.

 

Forum rule 1.12 = Threads and posts pertaining to the selling or trading of "DCS" keys are not allowed.

Got it man. I'm just a 54-post lurker wanting to get the most out of my buck. Kind of oblivious to whatever drama is afoot with aftermarket keys. I buy on sales almost 100% the past 5 years...Looking forward to the Sept one and if my prior years calcs are correct, one in Oct and then Holiday sale. Maybe the Sept is the Oct sale this year

If I already own 2 of the helos in the pack, what happens when I purchase the pack? Does it have separate keys? Would it be possible to give the duplicates to people I fly with? If not would be a bit of a waste. If it is keys, would a steam user be able to use them? Guy I fly with often is a steam dude, and he already has the Gazelle, so I'd like to give him the Ka-50. Another guy has the Ka-50, so I'd give him the Gazelle. I only need the UH-1 and the Mi-8.

So its already answered here, you open a ticket to support and they will transfer a key to a user that you wish to gift it to :)

That's a good news, but I already have ka-50 and the huey. I'm not interested in the Gazelle so a 66 euros pack Just to have the mi-8 Is not for me. I'll wait for a future mi-8 discount.
