Yes, the only way to get these planes without paying for them is by pre-ordering the game.

There isn't a deal to get those planes via pre-order in the states? That sucks for you.

Anton has mentioned several times that you get these planes by pre-ordering, the offer is also mentioned on the Game store website and since you have to download them off Live Marketplace they wouldn't be much of a bonus if you didn't need to pre-order to get them free.

Business decision. They are trying to make some extra money by selling some of the planes separately. A lot of other companies do the same, so I guess we shouldn't be too surprised. At least it means we should be able to look forward to a steady stream of DLC.

Modern Warfare 2 comes out two months after BoP. And personally, I don't think there is enough that is new to warrent $60 from me. That's Gamefly all the way.

And hell yeah I ordered. I work nights, so when I wake up that afternoon it will be at my door. Now that's convienience. No free time wasted, and no gas burnt.

Yeah, I really don't like the way they have deliberately cut two aircraft from the game to sell separately. I don't mind paying for content they create after the game comes out, but this is just a rip-off.

yes it annoys me but ive gotten so used to it now, what with many other devs doing the exact same thing, sometimes much worse things being cut.

if i cant get the pre-order bonus i will certainly fork out the extra cash for those extra planes.

but dont get me wrong i still think its not a good idea cutting them out.
