View Full Version : Poll: If GWX was payware, how much would you pay for it?
Those GWX guys are incredible, no doubt about that! Based on what we know so far about the development, how much would you pay if this addon was payware? (I know i would pay with my grandma if i could.)

I have never paid for anything that is available on the net , never have and never will .
For an add-on to something flight MS FlightSim you'd be paying anything up to $80. If it was packaged I'm sure there would be a market, albeit a relatively small one, say compared to WoWIII.
I wouldn't pay anything because then GWX would have been stolen from some gallant freeway mod team.:yep:

Maybe a hard copy of GWX on cd should be made available for a reasonable price for the folks that still use dial up. And for those that simply want to show a little bit of love. Could even release it a week before the download version becomes available.

I will put it on the net.... freee
Reversing the world!!!!
I would have payed, this is quality.
The only way (The GWXDev team ) would charge for this is...
A) A donation to a Web site like UBRS/SubSim for kindly hosting the files
B) "If we could get it on CD" just to cover the cost of postage.
But we love the game..so we would rather release as freeware :up:

I think the whole team has the community's interest in their mind so they would never ask someone to pay for their mods. That's for sure especially with Kpt on the helm :yep: :yep:

GWX has the quality/gameplay & more (insider knowledge;)) that SH3 should have had at release so I would pay the same amount as SH3 cost me.
But, as already stated, GWX will ALWAYS be Freeware as the DEV's want to improve the game they love playing.

Well what i always do before i buy a game is read up on reviews first then decide whether i should buy it. And because everything ive read about GW has been positive i would then be willing to pay top dollar. I would pay up to $100 for GW:yep: Which is the normal price give or take for new games.
I never buy a game without background info. SH3 I found out about in PCGamer in a good review.
One PC Gamer led me to this game. Amazing given how much I spend on SubSim and play SH3.
GWX... worth the $60 I paid for Vanilla.

I would pay, no doubt. It is quality work that the community added what they would like and what needs to be removed. The development team went and did what we asked AND MORE! But you know, sometimes the praises of the community and gratitude is enough payment for most. Everyone needs to hear an 'atta boy' every now and then. :up:

I'm used to payware add ons for games, so I would pay whatever it takes. Just lost $1000 on the stock market so this is just peanuts anyway ;)
But it's amazing that almost every addon for SH3 is freeware, highly unusual. Only exception is the well known X1 add on.
The subsim community is something else :up:

I donated $25 to Subsim for Pacific Aces (which came on a CD with all the best SHII mods included). I would be willing to pay $15-$30 for a CD with GWX, as long as it was a donation to Subsim or UBRS. That puts it in the category of worthy cause.

The Grey Wolves Expansion is one of those free mods that truly deserves to be released on the market as an official expansion pack for Silent Hunter III. But as none of its work is stolen, I doubt that'll happen.
I'd pay at least $50 myself. Grey Wolves is quality, the product of passion and commitment.
The max. price I will ever pay for an addon/expansion is the usual 19,90 that they charge here in Finland.

Of course GWX isn't finished yet and is still being tweaked but given how much more I enjoy SH3 with GW1.1a, I'm sure if I were to purchase the game out of the box as if I had installed GWX already, then the game will be worth 2-3 times more than what I payed for the unmodded version. :up:

11-22-06, 06:05 PM
All of these "improvements" should have been included by the SH3 developers. Look at Bethesda Softworks, they've been selling plugins for Oblivion, cos they either didn't have the time to include it in the original game or were just looking to make a quick buck. Regardless, I feel it's daylight robbery , taking out the best parts of the game and then forcing you to buy the plugins to elevate your gaming pleasure :P .
Paradox:
But then again, if they'd included everything, the fan community would have their work cut out wouldn't it? And we might witness an angry backlash by the modders? :P

Steve,
Pacific Aces case is somewhat different. The decision to distribute it only in exchange for donation to Subsim was easy because the entire add-on was developed by the Pacific Aces team itself with exception of the AI Bai file for planes which could be even later replaced with the better one developed in the team. In turn, GW is rather a compilation of mods by different people. One would need to get permission from all of them to be able to do things similar to what was done with the Pacific Aces distribution.

11-23-06, 08:00 AM
Nothing!
I had to pay good money for an unfinished product in the first place because the SH3 Development team wasn't allowed to put a finished product on the market.
This was followed by numerous free add-ons and mods to make the product more enjoyable and closer to what the original product SHOULD have been in the first place.
And now, this poll gives me a feeling that greed is taking over somewhat, and seeing how well previous FREE mods of GW have done, someone is testing the waters and this new GWX might be made available IF people are willing to pay for it.
:lurk:
:rotfl:Dont get too paranoid there. GWX could never be sold, since it is illegal to sell mods.

Would be glad to pay something if GWX allows me to shoot corpses of dead sailors through the torpedo tubes... Matrosegefreiter Willi Blank is in the stern torpedo room since 2 weeks when he was shot by a Hurricane, and I have another minimum 2 weeks trip to get back to Wilhelmshaven. I don't think I can find any volunteers to get in there anymore.
No problemo for the money, will send the bill to his family when we are back in port.

As i only had a 56k dial up connection and live in the uk. I think it was 20$ i donated for GW on DVD. It was worth every dollar.
I am hoping that i can get the new GWX the same way. Lets be honest gentlemen we all love getting things for free. But i so wish the guys who put this all together could be paid if only a little for there contribution to us all. I was a little surprised to find in the voting that most wanted it still for nothing.
In my opinion for what its worth i would like to see a little money going to this site to make sure the future is secure for them and in the long run us.

As much as most would rather prefer ignoring reality; GWX is UBI copyrighted files modified and charging anything for it would kill it as they are not authorized to make a payware add on to SH3.
That does not, however, stop all those that feel like donating to the GW team and Subsim from making a generous contribution to the stellar work and Herculean effort that will likely be the ultimate version of one of the finest games/sims ever to be made.
Once that fee is demanded, however, expect GWX to be axed by Ubi lawyers.

Well I saw the thread, read a couple of responses. I think some are looking for something free all the time. I appreciate all the fine work that GWX has done for the community. They never asked for a dollar. Made it seem that it is an act of love. And I believe it was. But for the quality and features it's worth a lot. From what I have seen from vanilla SH3 to GWX, I would have paid 50 bucks to have that difference if I'd have been presented with the differences to compare. Thanks GWX and Subsim, I've made my donations, and will continue to do so..............

There has always this mystigue feeling about mods; they have to be free all the time. And yes most simple mods like skins should be free. But if its expanded to total mods like GWX or plenty of other mods (Counter-strike for example) for any game it gets a bit different. The amount of time put in by the modders to create such mod is immense and why not ask something in return. I will never pay big bucks for a mod but a euro of 2 isnt a real problem. Think about the numbers here. Lets say GWX get downloaded 1000 times for 2 euro, and lets say 20 peeps work on it. Thats easily 100 euro for each modder. That wont cover their costs most likely but its a nice amount to get in return for your hobby. (Btw I have no idea how often GWX is downed nor the mod teams size, so the numbers are hypothetical)
There áre however same problems if modders gonna sell their 'product'. For a start they have to get premission from the developer/publisher to sell a mod made for their game/product. This gets tricky when we talk about reverse enginering (exe hacking)
Also try to figure out a system to sell your product without piracy. You cant really protect mods.

I think in order to further this survey, another interesting question would be:
How much would you pay for a great add-on/mod like the GWX but for SH4 :P
:down: :damn: :|\\ <---- safely hidden behind the wall
Seeing GWX is "freeware" and made with other mods that are free, plus what the GWX Team has done, the only way it could ever be sold is if all that are a part of it got a piece of the "action". And I doubt that will or should ever happen for the obvious reasons.
But if it was possible, I agree with Pants. Use the proceeds for a good cause. Like helping Neal with SS and Terrapin with his site, if he kept it going. I believe that would keep everyone involved happy. Even if it's put on a CD or DVD to pass around for those unable to download it, use the money to pay for the discs and what's left over go to the sites mentioned. Afterall, without the SS and UBRS sites we wouldn't have a place to bitch and moan and get these free downloads. ;)

It was decided at it's earliest inception and stated by Kpt.Lehmann on numerous occasions here on SS, that GWX will always be FREE.....I don't disagree with you when you state that sites such as SS are worthy causes (I donate to SS on a personal level). However, the moral all of those over at GWX strictly adhere to is the one that states GWX was developed for the benefit of all those in the community and FREE at point of collection. :arrgh!:

No apologise necessary GT, I don't believe you've offended anybody. The 'FREE FOR EVERYBODY' policy is the only one that matters over at GWX.
I'll admit to being a little puzzled over the reason for such a hypothesis though, considering your past involvement :hmm:

LOL, I understand Jim. As I said, it was a "what if" reply to go with the poll. It's was only meant as what if things were different with GWX, which I know they aren't and won't be.

I put down 30-50. It's a great expansion for Silent Hunter III. Coupled with the other MODs I use, it is the best Sub Sim I've ever played.
Regreatable, I cannot get into the American theatre of operations. There is somthing there that I'm not liking, either that it is the mystike of being on the loosing team. Silent Hunter IV I would say was ground breaking on the incorperation of grapic engines. Whats more, in the Atlantic I feel that I am not discrediting anyone by using a number like U-11 or U-435, but when in the Pacific, when they give me the Barb, or the Silversides, or many of the other named boats, I think for me at least, it hurts the immersion factor because I feel that I have to measure up to the men on the boat... Not sure why I feel this way, but it's been plauging me since release.
I found grey wolves about the time SHIV was released, I had been out of touch, but thanks for the expansion, I think it is really great.

I'd offer it one of my cigars and two of my home made fruitcakes for it for sure. :up:

Cool. I thought I was the only one left on the planet that still liked fruitcake.:cool:
If GWX were payware I believe I'd be willing to part with $15-$30 for the increased enjoyment it provides, and so I've cast my vote accordingly.
You know, it seems to me that you GWX developers have taken an already fine off-the-shelf game and turned it into a nearly perfect work of art. I am constantly amazed at your talents. You are obviously a group of individuals with a passion for the North Atlantic theatre, and a sharp eye for historical details -- it shows in the quality of your product. If you ever decide to create a stand-alone product, it would be worth every bit of $60 to me. With you guys at the helm, I can't help but think it would quickly become the "Das Boot" of sub simulations.
Many thanks for GWX.

its so good, its worth money
however, as a poor college kid, even if its worth money, if they charged for it, i would no be able to get it regardless. I cant afford payware for any game
Ive spent $30 on Navyfield since it went retail, and less then $10 on other payware in my whole life.

I can not believe that 41 % of the voting forum members would not pay for GWX. I am not a rich man but I have purchased off the shelf sims between $19 & $ 39. (I save to buy) GWX is a lot more interesting then many of these I have bought. The mods guys work their butts of for no pay and we reap the rewards of their outpute. Again I am not a rich man but not pay anything. Everytime I download a mod, or reload GWX I feel like a thief.
The above are personal thoughts and if they tick anyone off I appologize in advance,
Support GWX and the forum

To be blunt i was very surprised and if the truth be known a little disgusted to think that after all the hard work that the mods put in to make this great simulation such a class act that about 40% of people on here thought it was not worth even a dollar of their money.

You must all remember that it has always been stipulated since the inception of TGW (The Grey Wolves) "It will always be free to the community". :yep:
We all like a bargain.....and this time round we've all got one :up:

i think most of the people that voted that are like me
I would pay for GWX....but due to very very limited funds, even though i would be willing to pay for it, there is almost no way in hell i would be able to

If it was between $5.00 to $10.00 for those who have DSL I think they would pay for it. The cheaper the better right?;) For those who have cable or just really good internet it should be free.
