AI turned to Flyable in updates

[Katkatman]

About making the AI planes flyable, Oleg already told us that this task will be for the 3rd party developers --> us.
So if you wanna fly this plane
- Try to find wellington's cockpit documentations/plans
- Download maya/3DSmax or any other 3D software
- Learn how to use it
- Wait for Oleg's mod tools
- And do it !!!
(anyway you can also wait for the other modders make it)

I think when he said 3rd party developers he was talking about actual software studios and dev companies like the ones that create pay-ware stuff for FSX.

Do you have a quote that says otherwise? Because if he means to give the average user access to this stuff (besides the map builder) that's great!

Yep, I would love to pay for planes like the Wellington or the Hampden for that sake as DLC after the release. Oleg must find some source of income so we get the next iteration of CoD! Better buy them from MG so that they are included in the official game than from third party devs...

Sell them for $7-10 like RoF and the ones that like them will gladly pay while the fighter jocks that don't like to pay for them can stay happy with more and fatter targets for their their Spits This "planes for free" in patches nonsense must stop

I think that Oleg said that all 3rd party material has to be approved by Maddox Games before being released (for online or offline). That way you don't have people making crazy planes with horrible/unrealistic flight characteristics that sullies the name of his great game.

Lets not talk payware, no one has mentioned it offically and to be honest I hope it never happens to the IL2 franchise, i have big reservations about that subject beliving it just becomes prophit orientated instead.

I tend to agree. Shove the popular aircraft in the big updates, and fill in the cockpits for AI aircraft as DLC. I'd be happy to pay a few $s for the cockpit to one or two less popular aircraft that I'd love to fly.

Wouldn't it make more sense to charge for the popular ones and offer the unpopular ones for free?

Agreed. Also any info on the fiat g.50? sometimes it's listed as flyable alongside the Br.20, but i don't remember seeing any screen of the cockpit. Crap planes powa.

In the past there were WIP screenshots to see. Also, all available sources so far ( videos of gameshows in moskau and kiew, previews, leaked infos of betas) are showing , the Fiat G.50 will be flyable

No, because you want people to buy the game for the popular ones. Otherwise who would buy the game if in every addon you got like the Blackburn Skua and a Polikarpov Po-2 as flyables and then had to pay extra for the Spit V and Yak 9? That would be a proper dick move. Imagine if the flyable list for CoD was the Avro Anson, the Tiger Moth, the Bf. 108 and the Ju. 52 and you had to pay for everything else...that's what that would be like.
