depalmer 0 Posted October 14, 2009 My wife will be asking soon what I want for Christmas. Well I could tell her the new add on pack for OFF Between Heaven and Hell. She will say "I like to watch you fly the two wingers." Where do I get it and don't you dare buy it before Christmas yourself." Yes Dear I say. Dreaming of Sugarplums and Nieuport 28's and Pfalz D12's and Nieport 23's and Pfalz DIII's (Not D3a's)etc. Problem I can't point her at a add-on pack yet. I know we have gotten hints of 1) EV / D VIII 2) Nieuport N28 3)Nieuport 24 / 27. Will there be something I can point her to for a pre-order. Could we get something more solid? How much what will be in it? Spouses need a Christmas list$$$$. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

itifonhom 6 Posted October 14, 2009 (edited) "We will announce the addon content quite soon now - hang in there." So there is an add-on? Payware? Soon? Download? I am hoping for TrackIR, Freetrack is too slow for this game. itifonhom Edited October 14, 2009 by itifonhom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RAF_Louvert 101 Posted October 14, 2009 ' Oh the excitement, the anticipation of it all! WM, about being the first with an add-on to an add-on. I'm afraid not.

Check Six 2 Posted October 14, 2009 (edited) and it will DEFINITELY be payware! Not being subjected to US tax system, this is just speculation on my part, but shouldn't that be "Pay-through-the-nose-ware"?? Oh...for Christmas????

Rickitycrate 10 Posted October 14, 2009 "Quite soon now". Yes, I look everyday. I am so glad that there is a level of support from all sides to keep making this wonderful game/sim a growing and improving endeavor. OFF for LIFE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe 0 Posted October 14, 2009 Tell my wife about this my AS...umm close cousin to a horse...that has short ears and a shorter tail. If she can't see it or smell it on my breath she's not going to find out about it...from me. If it can be snuck in without leaving a trail seriously don't let her know. Tell her to get you that nice 22 inch monitor or a new video card you'll need. And before you go feeling guilty do you REALLY think she hasn't gotten something for herself without you noticing? If you did notice don't say anything to her so you have a defense in case she somehow manages to find out you got something. This pay for patch is going to be a download isn't it?

Bullethead 12 Posted October 14, 2009 If she can't see it or smell it on my breath she's not going to find out about it...from me. Words of wisdom there, sir . This pay for patch is going to be a download isn't it? I wouldn't call it a "pay-for patch". While I'm sure it will address various reported issues with the existing game, it's main purpose will be to introduce new content. So it's definitely going to be more of an expansion than a patch, and as such deserves to be paid for. The game development fairy doens't just leave new stuff under our pillows, you know.

Duce Lewis 3 Posted October 15, 2009 We will announce the addon content quite soon now - hang in there. WM Great news Winder! Glad you made it payware Maybe there'll be a new engine under the Christmas Tree If not this Christmas, then next Cheers, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itifonhom 6 Posted October 15, 2009 So, forgive my impatience but, is it "soon" already? I want to hear the details!!! :-) itifonhom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldric 42 Posted October 15, 2009 I'm all for the expac whenever its released-- I've had tons of enjoyment already. What I'd really like is a leather flying helmet and goggles WWI aviator stylee (something other than a baseball cap for my TrackIR clip). That and no one in my household calling the Boys In White to haul me off to Bedlam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigfish3 0 Posted October 15, 2009 And if he can't manage that in time for Christmas, ask Santa for (a) TIR 5.0B software (free!) and (b) 24" monitor (under 200 quid now). Then who cares what's on the telly at Christmas! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe 0 Posted October 15, 2009 Sorry if I came across negatively about the "pay for patch", that was not my intent. I am quite happy paying for this upcoming release. I have been pleased with the product and will continue to support their efforts financially. I just hope I don't have to do the delivery man dance with a CD to keep my Torquemada-wanna-be wife unaware when a download is something more discrete.

itifonhom 6 Posted October 15, 2009 Yeap, I agree, download would be better although that will bring the need of a re-downlaoding policy. In general I prefer to see things on my self but explaining about a new package to my wife is kind of ...... hmm let's say, uncomfortable! ;-) itifonhom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bullethead 12 Posted October 15, 2009 I don't have to do the delivery man dance with a CD to keep my Torquemada-wanna-be wife unaware when a download is something more discrete. Have it shipped to your office. Just do the FedEx man a favor and put the name of the business in the address, because most offices don't have their street numbers in plain sight....

Uwe 0 Posted October 15, 2009 Bullethead, I work deep within the bowels of non-profit hospital (which most are) as a financial analyst. Our mail system here is so FUBAR I’d give anything mailed to me a 20% of actually reaching me. I recently sent a purchase order to a vendor in which the dates on the contract were wrong. The vendor asked me if I would like for him to send me another P.O. with the correct date on it. Here was my response to him which sums up our mail and bureaucracy accurately. “Please process the P.O. we sent for the new delivery date. Seriously, the invoice has to hit three mail boxes before it even gets to me. I then have to turn it over to the PFS secretary who gets it to the PFS director. It's then given back to the secretary who puts it in inter-office mail which is placed in the care of someone NOT under the age of 80, who while well meaning...may not get it to where it really needs to go. If it does make it where it needs to go it still has to hit two mailboxes before it gets back to me. The person that hands me the P.O. (my manager) is more than likely the person that I have to give the P.O. right back to after I open the manila envelope. After that my manager has to give it to her director who then has to send it to purchasing, via interoffice mail (again in the hands of someone not under 80) or he walks it over, to be processed and mailed to you. For it to have made to you gives strong credence that there must indeed be a God. So please, process the P.O. you received with the new delivery date.” Otherwise it’s a great idea. Lord knows if I could actually get any mail here I'd have a nice gaming rig, a couple more houses and families to put in them... Uwe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
