those are 3rd parties. And desaster soft put out a demo which can be downloaded (and tested) for their Wick Dundas campaign (which contains 5 missions for their III./JG2 and 609 campaigns, both in normal and low (plane number I guess) versions).

had a look over them, there's nothing special in there. in no way they are worth their 30 euros they're asking for on Amazon pre-order.

without any sqd system or even anyway to enter a pilot name, its just a series of single missions.
Though i would thought they are prob well made and have nice skins.

There has been a demo available for this for some time now. It was posted here but was removed.

again, the mission in their demo were very simple. no scripting (and I mean really no scripting whatsoever), just plain missions, with messages via the HudLogCenter ugly function.

at this moment, the russian Adlertag, Battle of Britain, Erpr.Gr.210, II./StG 1 and Spitfires over Dunkirk are way over the vanilla, or any other campaigns.

Why would I pay 30 euros for something I or the community can produce for free?

It's not likely to have addressed any of the bugs like radio commands and in any case I think that would be an infringement of Maddox Ts&Cs?

Anyway, its a lot to try to make out of a chance dogfight with a typically unpredictable end, probably due to luck and circumstance.

Thats my point, it isn't worth 30 Euros to me. Some have said 5-10. I might be interested in paying something like that to save me the time and trouble but for 30 euros? I can live without it. I only play on line anyway, well 95% of the time.

But as they say about their forum "advert", no-one's beating me to buy it.

Why on earth would they remove it? A strong community it commercial campaign set can only increase the viability of CoD. Or do the devs think they don't need help in this regard!
