Fun fact:
I have all the IL2 releases since the very first one in 2001 (except the pe-2 and manchuria add-ons which i got in 1946 because i didn't want the boontybox download manager) and i bought all of them from local retail stores.
It took only two months for the price of each and every one of them to drop about 35%. Being a student at the time with not much cash to spend i quickly learned the trick and after pacific fighters i did just that: waited for 45-60 days before getting the new expansion and paying less.
In other words, let's untwist our panties gentlemen, it's happened before and it didn't kill the series.
Also, please keep it on topic (letting people who are ambivalent know of a cheaper purchase) instead of speculative (why has the price dropped, whose fault it is and what it might mean)
and don't drag every single thread towards the same direction.
This is getting mighty tiresome, makes the forum unreadable for many people and i've talked with Nearmiss about a way to correct it which he agreed to. I just don't want to start taking moderator action within the first couple of days and give off the wrong impression, but if the same subject dominates all other discussions, then that subject will get contained to a single place.
I'm not here to ban people or tell them what to think and say, i just want everyone to be able to do it in equal measure instead of having one group dominating all discussions and suffocating the rest
