New AC6 DLC scheduled for landing next Thurs

wow...who would buy that one plane for 400 microsoft points then there is a free one?.. =\

I'd sooner buy cheat codes.

God, I haven't seen such a blatant attempt to rip off gamers since Lumines Live.

yea...these are a massive ripoff...it's not like I play the damn game anymore anyways...

The devs of this game are lazy as hell when it comes to DLC.

All we really pay points for is a new paint job...its bullshit.

How about they take the time to make the other planes in the game playable with cockpits. The F4 Phantom for example...

Im thinking if picking this game up but I keep reading these stories about DLC and Im worried I might crack and buy them, but as a game designer I know exactly what goes into to making a NEW skin for a model (i.e. new paint job) and I can tell you Not.Very.Long. Period.

Wow, such whining. My favorite: Someone complains abuot the prices when he no longer plays the game.

Um, are they forcing you to pay anything?

Personally, I don't see what the big deal is. If you think its too much, great, don't download it. I myself have bought several of the planes, notably the Idolm@ster ones and a few others, and this time I will again. Firstly because I am an admitted anime addict and any excuse to stick anime into a game I will jump on usually. Secondly, the planes are not *just* color changes- these planes have stats altered from the originals. Some for the better, some not so great. Like the Idolm@ster F-117- I use this thing in almost every ground attack in the game now, because although its slower then the already slow F-117, it has a much higher payload. 80 of those area blast antiship missiles make getting an S in most ground assaults a piece of cake. So just keep in mind the basis of business- if nobody bought the first packs, they wouldn't have made any more of them.

I actually just bought this game ...

Maybe when I'm tired of my A-10 or Mirage I'll give these a look :)

Or maybe I'll just go back to playing CoD4.
