KennethBF Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) I think it will soon be time to categorize modules in DCS world main startupscreen and in you're web shop. Category: Studysimulator Easy/lowend simulator Maps Etc Especially the top two categories are important to ensure people know what they are buying. More information of the differences is allso important.

JayPee Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Agreed. Or at least some other way to distinguish between sim modules, and simplified/arcade modules. i7 4790K: 4.8GHz, 1.328V (manual) MSI GTX 970: 1,504MHz core, 1.250V, 8GHz memory

cichlidfan Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Doesn't the words 'Flaming Cliffs' in the module title, identify those aircraft well enough already.? ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero, i7-6700K, Noctua NH-D14 Cooler, Crucial 32GB DDR4 2133, Samsung 950 Pro NVMe 256GB, Samsung EVO 250GB & 500GB SSD, 2TB Caviar Black, Zotac GTX 1080 AMP!

lxsapper Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Why the startup screen? The only thing the icons do there is show the aircraft you have installed and a way to change the wall paper. You can't fly with the icons... no point IMUO.

The only thing the icons do there is show the aircraft you have installed and a way to change the wall paper. You can't fly with the icons... no point IMUO. If you do not have the module installed, then the icon has a $ sign to it, meaning that you can buy it. The whole point of the icons is that you are abel to see what modules that is installed, and what moduels is for sale. There is a reason to why the icons are placed at the startup screen, is it not?

KennethBF Posted September 20, 2013 Author Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) Doesn't the words 'Flaming Cliffs' in the module title, identify those aircraft well enough already.? Yes it is easy for you and me to understand what Flaming Cliffs is, and is not. But the reason why i wan't to categorize the moduels is not for me my selves but, but for new people that do not know what Flaming cliffs and DCS is. You and me knows what is coming through the forum, and what level of realism each modul will have. Other peoples might not have used time in this forum. I have been chatting with a lot of people on the multiplayer to tell them the differences between the moduels. Remember there is a lot of people that try out DCS - World because it is for free, but they do not know much about the modules and what to buy. I just want to make it easier for people that want's to try out DCS and use their money on it. Does DCS wan't peple that is not sattisfied with their products? Old marketing rules: A satisfied customer will give you 3 new customers. A dissatisfied customer will make you lose 10 potential customers. In this digital world with facebook etc, maybe you can multiply the rules with 10?

Psyrixx Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) Well, speaking from my own experience, I am an extremely satisfied customer and I've brought about five people in as new customers (three of which had never played flight sims before due to a feeling that they wouldn't be interested). None of us care about the module icons and I doubt that's going to be a make-it-or-break-it selling point. :P That being said, in the module manager and web store it would be good to highlight what the differences are between DCS and DCS Flaming Cliffs aircraft.

Yes, I understand and agree to most of what you say, like i said in the beginning.... DCS-world main menu and web shop.... And also like you say, the module manager.... The point is that they need to Categorize the modules, or at least make some symbology that make out the difference between the modules. Information is also important. I think most people now understand what I am talking about, and more or less agree to what I am thinking about.
