Hello Bignewy/Nineline,

Just to be sure, will the Eagle also become available for pre-order on steam (with the 30% discount) at some point ?

Thank you

Pre-order is on the Eshop only. 

thank you

Just saw this. I hope it's the case.

the above is incorrect

The developer chose not to offer the 30% pre-order on Steam due the small margins from the Steam fees + the discount.

The F-15E will of course be on Steam in the future at 20% off when released.

May I ask, in the most polite tone possible, why this was not mentioned weeks ago by someone and not left for customers to find out in a haphazard way at the last moment when everyone on Steam was expecting to be able to make their pre-order?

 

I think that's a fair question.

Or they were expecting to be able to use their 'miles' and found out at purchase it was not available.

Lots of lessons to be learnt here for when the F-4 releases

 

That's the silver lining. Other developers will have a prime example of how not to do a release.

To what end? We announced today it would not be on Steam, if we said it last week it would not have changed anything that I can see, even if it was decided then.

This is a bad start, if other third-party developers also do not pre-order on Steam in the future, DCS will undoubtedly lose many Steam users, and it is unfair to the existing virtual pilots who are used to start the game on Steam. 

I would like to point out that the payment system of the ED e-shop is not easy to use in some countries, which is why people there prefer to use Steam. Don't forget them.

Last minute cancelations, so to speak, are not generally the best option. Many regard them as discourteous.

WHat was a last minute cancelation? I am not following you at all. What would knowing it a week ago or whenever it was decided have helped?

Oh come on.

 

I've been in business for 25 years and I know one or two things. Keeping the customer informed as to plans is part of good relations. You know full well that Steam customers were eagerly anticipating making their pre-orders today. But between RB and ED not one person thought to mention to that base of customers that they would not be able to pre-orders?

 

Poor performance on someone's part.

Then people on steam wouldn't flood this forum, reddit, discord and Facebook asking why they can't pre-order...

Are ED seriously saying lack of proper information doesn't matter?

The F15 Pre order was pushed back twice with this month with corresponding info from RAZBAM and ED. Adding info that it would not be able pre-order on steam would be an appropriate piece of information to be released during one of these two postponements.
