Lonecrow66 Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Pony up.. It is expensive for a game, but not expensive for a SIM. --- May your takeoffs equal your landings!
S77th-konkussion Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 I'm curious- what do one of these typical shoot em ups cost? I have never owned a single one. Damn Wii games average about 50 bucks... [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=43337&d=1287169113[/sIGPIC]

Succellus Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 COnsidering for example that starcraft 2 lasted 1 week on my PC and now is idle. That it got a drop of 80% on subs, because in the end of the day its more of the same starcraft....and was 30bucks. Well 60 bucks for a game that you will probably not play well after 3 weeks, but when you master it after 2 month the playing will just have begun, 60 is quite low. EX: for WOW you pay 15 bucks a month (i don t play that kind of crap anymore) its mean after 4 month of wow, without the box that is payd... 60 bucks, you will have reached DCS price. My statement will be pricky but: Stop playing crappy MMO for 4 month. You ll have many benefits: 1) you ll buy DCS 2) You ll dexintoxicate from those craps and find them awesomely sille once back 3) You will save around 200 bucks a year, which is more than enought to upgrade your pc or make something diferent than mindless MMO.

S77th-konkussion Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) Alright.. let the kid be. Geez.. lol... I'll offset some of that disrep you earned Darren- but welcome to the hard hitting world of combat flight simulation. Not to be confused with "gaming" A little older & a lot of real world experts.

Apples Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 i would pay 1.5 the actuall price easely. And if crap stuff like COD can ask 60 for changes in some pixel you got to be kidding. These (DCS) will will last much more than the more of the same FPS average couple of month you ll get out there. lol, These so called crap games make millions of dollars..
