Regardless, most people will just go download the expansion anyway. |

how many ways do i have to say it, its not about the $10. (at least for me) it is about all future mods not being usable to anyone who isnt using the expansion. how many 1.5 mods work for 1.4? maybe 1 in 20 if your lucky, so you dont really have a choice at all. you have to buy it to use the mods being made for the game. i bought the UBM expansion a month ago but i wasnt happy about it because i felt like i had no choice other than be excluded from using any future mods. |

Also, if all the mods are being made to work only with 1.5, then you have nothing to worry about in terms of being excluded from using any future mods. |

I don't recall any such waves of nostalgia when patch 1.4 replaced 1.3 and all the mods quit working for that. Which leads me to the $10. That's IT! Admit it to yourself. You have known it all along. I am your father, Luke...

Besides that, what in the world are you complaining about now, if you have the 1.5 add-on?

the difference between the 1.3 & 1.4 update patches is that 1.5 is just a voluntary expansion not a "required" patch. you cant compare expansions to "required" upgrade patches.
after installing 1.5 i have more negative impressions about it than good. yes, it did add more to the game, but brought many more new flaws to the game because ubi sold it in unfinished condition just like they always do. i mean come on, they didnt even include any missions with it. i admit 1.5 has the potential in a year or so to be a great expansion when the mod community fixes it for ubisoft. |

You have forgotten the "no periscope animations in the conning tower" hysteria after 1.3. All patches and add-ons introduce additional bugs. Computers do the same thing. While fulfilling their promise to eliminate human error, computers merely substituted multitudinous even stupider errors. We would not, therefore, destroy our computers. Error is part of life. We accept it or die.

All I can say is that the developers are doing their best to prevent new bugs from surfacing. It's not an easy task and those who know are those who've done work in relative to file editing or programming. If you can hate the expansion for it's flaws, I'm sure you can love it for everything else. |

One other thing. I never looked at you as being the whiner. I've seen people resort to pathetics over this and by comparison, all you wanted was an answer and an understanding from those around you and you did it in a respectable manner. It's those childish whiners that peeve me so. |

Can you imagine the cries of 'RAPE' should any of the now free mods
not be free? Look at the complaints when GWX 2.0 was held for donations to SubSim fo a few days!! Even though it was clearly stated after awhile, anyone could get it free!!! That a Company gets a few bucks for thier product is how we keep getting more and more. And if Ten dollars breaks you? You have much, MUCH more to worry about! And when it comes right down to it? No one forces you to upgrade anything. That the options of all the GREAT mods are out there for free? Simpley amazing! But it's our call if we need to up our systems to use them. No Mod or add-on FORCES you to up grade your hardware or software. It simpley says to use it here is what you need. You make the choice. Pretty fair to me. And as gas prices go up? I expect more people will decide to upgrade thier systems and stay home. At 4 bucks a gallon? 1.5 is a deal!! |
