Thread: DLC pricing. #Milking (Ranting and Suggestions)17 Nov 2013, 01:22 AM The only issue i see about Sega/Relic commercial policy is that they are forcing on the community a p2w model which will ruin the game on the long run. An aggressive DLC policy is not necessarily bad because the game will be enriched with a lot more content and the customer will decide if the new content is worth the price or not. I have preordered COH2,skipped the CE content which was openly a ripoff and bought the first 4 commanders and heavy tanks skins and i'm quite pleased with what i paid for. I won't buy any new DLC though because the new commanders (Soviet Industry and Tiger Ace one) have shown that the ridiculous price of Assault Grenadiers when the first batch of commanders was released wasn't a mistake but a planned commercial move towards a P2W model, which i think is the real problem for us lovers of the COH franchise.

Thread: Unbalanced pay commanders15 Nov 2013, 20:17 PM Jump back to quoted post15 Nov 2013, 19:32 PMwongtp games are getting more expensive to make, resulting in requiring huge amounts of investments, in turn, there's huge pressure to produce high returns. you cant really blame them, thats how investment works, you wouldnt lend someone a large amount of cash/credit without expecting a certain required rate of return and if relic don't make money now, they probably would have difficulty in raising funds next time to develop another title. then again, its us customers who will be getting the short end of the stick. Even if this is partially true, there are really few games which can cost up to 150 euro after only 5 months to get all its content. Anyway this is the market so you have freedom to buy what you want and is not the real issue which a lot of people are pointing out. However if Relic keeps the habit to release new commanders which throw out of the window the balance just to get an easy money grab this is something which can ruin the game on the long run and Relic games reputation.

Thread: DLC pricing. #Milking (Ranting and Suggestions)13 Nov 2013, 12:40 PM I agree the commanders and skins are really overpriced. My hope is that they increased the price for commander from 2,5 euro to 4 euro because there will be the steam autumn sale in 2 weeks, so they are trying to milk as much as they can before the sale. Even if they are free to price new content i hope they understand that it can have a serious backlash on the long run. They are restricting demand too much for commanders and are also losing reputation. In: Lobby

Thread: Turning Point Official Patch Notes11 Nov 2013, 18:57 PM Anyone know if Irregulars are a new unit and how they are different from Partisans? In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: New Commanders!9 Nov 2013, 12:37 PM One thing which also worries me is that Elite Troops Doctrine sees the introduction of fantasy equipment. From what i have read Model 24 grenades weren't stun grenades but only fragmentation grenades and in some variants smoke grenades. I think they should just stick to real WWII equipment.

Thread: New Commanders!8 Nov 2013, 11:14 AM 2,5 Euro for commander was already high, but pricing 4 euro for commander is really too much. I really hope they review their pricing policy for DLCs. In: COH2 Gameplay
