By principle, had to vote no. Shouldn't pay extra for something that shouldn't be there to begin with.

i would pay an extra 20 dollars if they removed the drm option and gave us an offline option but you need the internet to put the key code in and it has a special incryption so it knows that its connected only to my computer and that i was not pirating the game then i would pay the extra money

If I buy something... want it to be mine, without limitations... no permanent seller's conditions... if it is +10$ just tell me straight forward.

JScones 01-29-10 10:46 PM

No.

With this mentality you'll lose.

You've shown them your too cheap no matter what they do.

No piracy here.

The Management

SH5 = 45
Without DRM + $10 (basic requirement, just plain common sense to me)
Type II sub + 8
Type IX sub + 25
Type XXI sub + 0 (no interest)
war extends till 45 + 5
stormy seas + 0 (basic stuff!)
various soups + 5
reliable server for MP + 0
AI units using Torpedoes +25
Printed Recognition Manual + 3
Hardcore settings with
  • complex sinking mechanics,
  • no life bars,
  • no red triangle
  • misc other settings
extra + 5
Keep the Game developpers on board to Help in support of their own product/creation (another year of anwering questions and developping modding tools) + 10

Total i would pay for SHV = 141 Euroes.

and an extra 10 balls to increase the Dev teams living conditions (more offduty time, increased pay, health insurance and whatnot)

151 then.

Gabuchino, you just said you would help crackers, or support them.
you are swimmming with the sharks... act now and edit that crap!

I've seen XBOX and PS3 games going for CLOSE to that.

If you can't afford the Hardware and Software for this hobby, Go play with dolls and pretend you have a Hitech Sim.

First point :Console games cost more because publishers HAVE TO PAY a certain amount of money to the console manufacturers to have the game published. No such cost is necessary on a pc. Its the greatness of publishing on an open platform.

Second point : for 80 $ I want a gigantic box, with a 300 page manual that decribes not only the how to use the sim, but also the tactics used. I want maps, and features, lots of features in the game itself (dynamic campaign, multiplayer on the internet and lan, possibilty to host an ongoing campaign in multiplayer etc..). Throw everything and the kitchen sink in.
Anything less would be unacceptable.

Oh and no phone home system.

That's just like saying


"Will you pay for us not to break yer legs?"

Kapitan_Phillips 01-30-10 06:13 AM

No, neither would I pay an extra $10 for someone to spit on my cheeseburger.
