The PS3 only offers the P-47 as a download, mainly because the Ta-152 will be easily accessible after the title update.

I guess there are no german cockpits in this DLC?

If not! 10€ is way too much for 6 missions and one plane.

I am still waiting for the patch to come and it is definitely much more important than the DLC.
Right now, the game is keeping me away from multiplayer because of the reported problems (kill count).

I love the game but I finished the solo missions way to fast, and the multiplayer does not improve the game lifetime. Bizarre I am not playing BOP anymore...:sad:

I have to say I'm more than a little disappointed. I already feel like I've paid for a game that I'm not getting everything out of (becuase in order to fly the planes I want I have to go online to unlock them - which I don't have the time to do); now I'm being asked for £7.99 for a handful of extra content.

I appreciate that its a marketing decision and not a developers one, but I'd much rather have seen a patch correcting some of the errors seen by the community (and unlocking all the planes for all us offline players :)) before they start asking for more money for more extras.

Completely agreed!

Same, except I paid $12.75 (GBP converted to USD). And I already have the TA152:-x

Don't you need gold to play on live?
I don't know I am a PS3 user.

you need gold to actually play on live yeh,but you also get special offers like money off dlc and some content earlier than if you were on a silver subscription

You can't do much with a silver account. You can't even access Netflix without a gold account. They got me for 2 like that. LOL

Ta-152
 
Ugh...I paid $9.99 ($10.80 with tax) for the DLC on PSN and fully expected to get BOTH planes as indicated in the DLC description (you also get two new planes, the P-47D and TA-152...)

I downloaded/installed the DLC and instantly checked my hangars for the new birds. Only the P-47D is available on PSN after the download. I did verify that the TA-152s show up as enemies in the "P-47D in Europe" single missions, but I didn't pay $10+ for an "unlockable" plane, I paid for it to be unlocked and available.

So far, I've enjoyed this game, but little "white lies" like the PSN DLC description leave me less than impressed. Also, I've only tried playing online a few times because the session is inevitably ended by the host or some other such annoyance. I'm hoping the patch/update addresses many of these issues and, I guess, I'll need to win 100 matches in the FW series if I ever want to fly the TA-152 that cost me $5.40!

Well, after the title update you'll only need one kill online in a FW series plane to unlock the TA. Just hang tight and you'll get it. ;)
