Desatersoft, is just exploiting a loophole, in the fact that Cod was realeased with no dinamic campaign, and a very crappy normal campaign,
And by charging 30 bucks, they probably knows, theres alot of suckers out there that will pay

Can anyone remember such a price dis ussion about their IL2'46 adons?
Just wondering because they are in the same pricerange.

And for IL2'46 there were realy a lot of good free downloadable missions/campaigns. IF this will be the case for CoD , time will tell-having CoD's FMB in mind. This thing is only similar to the '46 one for the first look!
As said, nobody is forced to buy such adons, they dont change the gameversion.

And yes , gamecontent for IL2 classic was also made by 3.party , from the Hyperlobby to dynamic campaign generators!
That was never the strength of 1C:MG

I don't see either why people discuss the price so ardently. I understand that some may be angry because Cod came with so little content. But this is definitely not the fault of Desastersoft.

I can understand that some people are not willing to pay this price but hey, why quarreling about it? Just don't buy it if it is too expensive for you. Just wait until some cheaper or free stuff will turn around.

I for my part liked the demo but as long as the AI is not fixed I won't get too much into single player and therefore won't spend the money on a sp campaign. However, if they finally manage to fix the AI and the FM issues I surely will spend some money on quality sp campaigns as I did for IL2. Imho the commercial campaigns that I bought were well worth their money and not one single free campaign came even close. Which seems obvious: hobby campaign designers spend some of their spare time on it and it is extremely difficult to put that many hours into such a project. And selling a campaign puts some nice pressure on the designer to deliver or he will be sooner out of business than he can say x#.@*

I for one placed a preorder yesterday at amazon.de. I think, these campaigns will deliver the offline content I was looking for with CloD: A nice string of historic missions as experienced by the piliots.

I bought a lot of campaigns for IL2, too and had a good time playing them.

* Case Blue
* Battle over Europe (ok, that one did bring new maps)
* Ostfront
* Rebirth Of Honour
* Wings over Waves
* Fliegerasse: Stern von Afrika
* Fliegerasse: Eismeerjäger
* Operation Overlord

So why shouldn't I with CloD?
