I am not going to support a game that makes you purchase something that you shouldnt have to, simple!

I still don't care about you. I care that someone is posting nonsense about a game that I do care about.

Fine, don't support it. Your loss.

Who said me? But if you really didnt care about me then you wouldnt post, yet for some odd reason your still posting therefore proving what... yes that's right that you do care. Thanks David, its really quite sweet!

By the way heres a break down of how much you would spend on ROF if your brought everything... taking into account discounts as well, to be fair!

Aircraft - $130

Field Mods - $50

Weapon Mods - $37

So that is - Roughly $217

Now a lot of these aptly named "mods" could have been done by yes thats right modders... something which even COD lets you do!

So guy ahead and bend right over, just don't expect me too follow suit!

Not to send this off on another tangent, but this is a huge point, the pricing model that ROF uses, and other types like WoT, etc is a huge knock on modders and the modding community.

Why would a company release an SDK if they can make the content themselves and then sell it... think about it.

I blame Call of Duty myself...

That is a good point..

But personally I would rather pay for an add-on..

Be it a plane or what ever..

Knowing it went through the same process that all other items went through..

Because to be honest.. Most mods are not even worth the FREE price we pay for them!

In my definition of a perfect world..

It would work this way..

They would provide an SDK.. A person would develope something, say an aircraft

Than submit it to 1C.. Where 1C woudl than 'review' the aircraft 3D model, cockpit, FM, DM, etc.. to see that it meets 1C's standards

Than 1C would include it in the basline game as an update.. And post it on thier site for DLC.. And the person that made it would recive a percentage of the DLC price..

Basically just like RoF does it now, but, where a 3rd party can submit stuff and make a little coin for doing so

And if for some reason 1C decided the product was not up to 1C standards.. Said person could still offer it up for others to use.. As a 3rd party un-aproved mod for those who want to use it, but at that point it would require everyone to DL the mod to be able to play online toghter..

Basically just like IL-2 mods does it now

But i dont mind paying for them because money aint a problem for me. My steam acount it way more than that and i hardly play any of those games because im always playing ROF so ive have had my moneys worth and then some. But for people like you that dont have much money i can see it being a problem.

At the end of the day ROF works and CLOD dont.

I understand what you mean Krupi, but compared to what I've spent on FSX over the years, the cost of RoF add-ons is peanuts.
