SilentEagle Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 Will their be a patch for the game...besides the addon...allowing for smoke color and position change. This is a small thing, but is very important to me and i would like to know if we could get this in a patch instead of having to buy the full addon just for this little feature. Thanks
GGTharos Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 As I understand it it'll just be in the add-on ... ED -may- release a patch but they haven't decided yet. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
SilentEagle Posted November 24, 2004 Author Posted November 24, 2004 I don't care whether they plan to or not....I just want the smoke. Why should i have to get the whole addon for only smoke.
VapoR Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 I don't care whether they plan to or not....I just want the smoke. Why should i have to get the whole addon for only smoke. Easy. Get the addon for all the other cool features!! :wink: If you are not interested in the Su-25t, there is still a bunch of cool new stuff. Lots of bug fixes, new Autumn and Winter terrains, new mission editor objects, movie transitions for missions, the list goes on and on . . .
Mechanist Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 I don't want any of that. Easy. Then you don't get the smoke. :mrgreen: "Fighters make movies, bombers make history."
SilentEagle Posted November 24, 2004 Author Posted November 24, 2004 I don't want any of that. Easy. Then you don't get the smoke. :mrgreen: :roll: :shock: ???!!!! WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY THAT FOR SMOKE!! I just don't understand...

Who should you NOT have to pay for the smoke? That's like saying you shouldn't have to pay for just a BIC pen.

SilentEagle Posted November 24, 2004 Author Posted November 24, 2004 UMMM yeah only this is something small in something much bigger...that isn't even important enough to be discussed...
GGTharos Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 It's time, time equals money, and separating it out from everything else equals time and thus money. Get the flippin' add-on for crying out-loud. :P You get scores of interesting stuff to play with, much more so than smoke, it'll altogether make for nice screenshots and movies.

Mechanist Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 :roll: :shock: ???!!!! WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY THAT FOR SMOKE!! I just don't understand... Look. It just like the TV channels. You just want few programs to see ,but the prize contains the whole 24 hour program. "Fighters make movies, bombers make history."
SilentEagle Posted November 24, 2004 Author Posted November 24, 2004 OK, off subject here...my point was...if there is going to be a regular patch...can this be included because of it being such a small feature.

I don't even play this game except for aerobatics...so yeah bad idea...smoke is what is most important
CanadaDave Posted November 25, 2004 Posted November 25, 2004 It'd be nice if they released a version that included the bug fixes, but things like customizable smoke are new features and they'd have to be nuts to give them away. It's not just theSu-25T you're paying for when you buy 1.1, but all the new tweaks and enhancements. "No bucks, no Buck Rodgers" - Stormin on the Ubi boards CanadaDave

This is a small thing, but is very important to me and i would like to know if we could get this in a patch instead of having to buy the full addon just for this little feature. Thanks Patches fix things. Add-ons add new items. The new smoke is an add-on, not a broken feature. People should pay for added material. Well, as far as I can remember, patches do add things! 1.02 added several new features. And in my opinion, this is broken and needs to be fixed...we should have had that choice anyway.
Caretaker Posted November 26, 2004 Posted November 26, 2004 I'm afraid you're pretty much alone with the assessment that this could be considered "broken" in 1.02. I also don't think it's sensible for ED to produce patches for individual users, with exactly those single improvements that they'd like to have without paying for the work involved. It is still quite possible that a free patch will be provided, after all ED has a good record with supporting their products so far. But I don't think the free inclusion of new features in the past should be used to demand more free features now. Caretaker ED Beta Test Team

SAM-Smasher Posted November 29, 2004 Posted November 29, 2004 I don't even play this game except for aerobatics...so yeah bad idea...smoke is what is most important Not trying to be rude here :) , but why buy a "Combat Flight Sim" based heavily around air to ground and air to air engagements when your only interested in aerobatics? the accuracy of the sim is mainly pointed toward the target of the sim itself and that is combat, so why would ED bring out a patch for one user who isnt even using the flight sim as the developers had intended, thats clearly a waste of resources :wink: ?

I like destroying SAM sites, thats the main point"
