Would you be willing to pay for additional contend?

Yep the average score was 56%? BD your memory is a little off.

Just out of curiosity - I really don't recall: was that before or after the latest patch? Also, I still can't shake the idea that most people are having performance issues because they refuse to reduce settings. The overwhelming majority are still running at maximum resolution, 1680, 1920 and above. People just aren't used to making concessions anymore, in my opinion.

Either way - Blackdog, I see your point, but I do think the business model is still feasible. The change from plenty of aircraft variants isn't enormous. The development cost of doing a variant of a plane you have is much less than that of a new plane. If you bought a "plane", you'd probably get all its variants, or a significant portion of its variants. Furthermore, I'm sure many maps could be adapted so that there's a least one flyable plane you could get, at least at first. Suppose everyone would get a basic Zero or a Claude or something for a Pacific scenario. Servers could probably come up with a map rotation that always included the Zero. If it isn't historically accurate, keep the Zero at a more distant airfield, but add the other planes. Whoever's bought them could play them online. The content could be there, just not flyable, I guess.

And by the way, if the message came from the developers pay-per-plane is the only way to keep CoD development going, you'd find me buying aircraft. I'd just be mightily annoyed

S!

Voted "not sure", meaning: Not now, but yes, after we got the game to a working order, as in, have the basics right. I will be ready to pay for additional content in the sense of expansion packs in old Il-2 style.

And no, not in the RoF style where if you want the whole game, it will cost you the price of several games.

I voted "Yes" under the assumption that the game would be as it was intended to be - an simulation orientated game around the mainstay-planes of the Battle of Britian and not a 50% finished software of someday-could-be-a-BoB-simulation.

If the products, here 3-D models with their FM&DM are done with some dedication and pride in workmanship and worth their money I would pay for the work the dev do.
