Man I have a itch!!! That needs to be scratched by BOP. I will say one thing the feedback from Anton is awesome. I have been a member of Ubisoft Hawx forum for quite a while now and not onced have I seen something written back to the public from the dev team. To be honest they suck. I do like the game but they only thing I dislike about the game is that there is no take off and landing. There are all kinds of people that hate the new assistance off cam but I think it is fresh and new and it's fun. I bought the first IL2 and loved every minute of it but I have a Apple now and can't play it. This game will be so awesome I will never put it down if it is anything like the first one.

I know. When i first started in the forum i thought i would only get some rough or no answers, but Anton is able to answer most of them for us.

I cant wait to see the site soon and see some more IL2BoP info etc. and I hope this game becomes a giant success and make a sequel (or maybe an update or download with Pacific fighters or 1946 would be very awesome))

Good Luck Guys!

DLC is definitely the hip thing right now...

Not only can it enhance an already solid title but it renews interest by bumping it back into the 'new release' column, so to speak.

IGN had an article about the random pricing of the DLC, which I tend to agree with - the worst offender funny enough was another flight title, a certain Ace Combat 6 with 70 different add-ons (mostly paint schemes) which ring up to about $180!

Yeah. Ridiculous.
Value is the key with something like that. Bethesda Studio is basically writing the DLC value bible with three (big) new Fallout 3 campaigns released in three months at about 8 bucks a pop. Nuts.

Hmmm yep most DLC is just a blatent money grab.

I wish Microsoft would change the "points" system to a $ system. That way people at least have a concept of how much they are really spending.

The only DLC i have ever paid for is additional multiplayer maps.

Given the seemingly brilliant environments of BOP i would have no problem paying for new multi maps. One thing i do not like is when publishers hold back certain content just so they can release it a week later as DLC.

Here in Australia, the Ace Combat 6 DLC was available before the actual game was available. Laughable.

Yeah, the only thing I ever bought was new online maps too.

They should at least drop the prices of the points considering the addons are things that could have, but weren't put in the game.

But with IL2BoP I would be willing to spend some money on an addon like "Pacific Fighters" or "1946" like I mentioned earlier.

I'm telling everyone I know about this game, and we are all very excited.

Can't wait for the site.

I think that's the point. LOL
That's why casinos uses chips and tokens rather than cash and change, and why fast food places take credit cards now. Easier to separate people from more money when they don't see it so much.

Is any of this Downloadable content for current games EVER available as a store bought extra item??

I probably won't have my console hooked-up to the internet, so I would be very disappointed if there is cool BoP DLC that I wouldn't be able to get! It would be great if there was a way for people to get these add-ons even if they didn't have a way to download it...

Unfortunately Gabefan i can't think of time that DLC has been available "in-store for consoles. I guess if the game and DLC is successful then the publisher might release an "ultimate" edition that features all content. But that would be unlikely.

Personally i think Gaijin will save the Pacific theatre for a sequel to BOP. Rightly so in my opinion. The scope is too great for DLC. DLC will more than likely be new maps, new skins for planes, new game modes etc. I should point out also that DLC doesn't always cost money. Some publishers make it freeeeeeee
