First off, almost all games drops in price within a year, there are very few exceptions. Nintendo's first-party games are exceptions, parents will pay for Mario at any cost. Regarding financing for the sequel(s), they wouldn't start development if financing wasn't already secured, it's business after all not poker.

On another note, RoF is free now...
1. the demand curve is not that elastic
2. don't expect too many new players
3. ROF uses the business model King Gillette invented

yea new games get cheaper but not from 50-60$ to like 12$ in less than a year....usually most modern games wont reduce their price by even $10 untill after a year, or so...i wish with all games i can wait 7 or 8 months and be able to pay 15$ for the game...this is totally unprecedented, but you are trying to say that this is normal and everything is fine....

also RoF, has a different business model, and thus might be able to make profit based on the new planes and additions...

RoF also has a more supportive community and not a basher community for some reasons I do not know despite RoF's equally or more desastrous beginnings in comparison to CoD.

I guess as newcomers ppl were more forgiving towards the RoF devs. Some ppl changing from IL2 to Clod probably expected they will have something like the uber IL2 with great graphics, phantastic FM and DM and similar monster content, absolutely bug-free and running on a computer two years old with high settings. They got angry when their expectations hit reality ...

S!

Stormcrow, there is truth in your statement We were told to expect something better and above IL-2. And there was no doubt because we knew the dev team had already several years of experience from IL-2 and would use lessons learned to create something even better. But something happened along the way and we got CoD at it's current state. So for sure there were may upset fans because of this.

Only thing we can wish is that Luthier and his team can pull together CoD and with it's sequels/add-ons bring up to the place it was planned to be, the new benchmark in WW2 flight sims.

Hi,

When they can fix the laggy moving model part, they will have a working Great Sim.

Anyway CoD is full a great things, and can by most immersive, and I believe that Devs are working hard to correct it.

For 12€ think it is a good buy.

P.S.

Didn't fly CoD for some time, and the other day (after the last patch) I did a go on multiplayer. Always CTD, please correct it ASP.

Regards
