Discount codes

[underscore1]

I have purchased at full price

 

BOS and BOK

 

Would I not be eligible for a discount for BOM ? Nothing in my profile page so was wondering how any discount codes work

 

Thanks

 

Really liking this product which needs to be much better publicised (especially the VR compatibility)

Discount codes are handled in a pretty confusing manner.

 

Emailing tech support might be your best option for clarifying things unless Jason_Williams or BlackSix see this thread and reply.

I don't think any discount has been offered for BoK. It is still in early access.

Yes, I think what he is asking is if owning 2 Games (BoS and BoK) would give him a discount for the third (BoM).

Hello! It was a special event from July 19 to August 9

 

Dear Pilots,

40% BOM PROMO IS BACK

 

There are now two easy ways to get 40% off Battle of Moscow!

 

1. If you already own BOS or BOK, we have placed a special 40% Off Promo Code for Battle of Moscow Standard or Premium Edition in your IL-2 User Profile. The code is valid until 9 AM GMT August 7th.

 

2. If you are a new customer and purchase either BOS or BOK you can simply add BOM to your cart with a 40% discount.

 

To use the Promo code simply follow these steps.

 

1. Log into your IL-2 User Account on the official Sturmovik website. https://il2sturmovik...re/promo-codes/

2. To view the code just click on Profile and then Promo Codes. Copy or write down the code.

3. To redeem the code and get the discount simply place Battle of Moscow in the Cart and paste or enter the code into the space provided. Hit Apply.

4. Proceed with checkout as normal.

 

To bundle with BOS or BOK follow these steps.

 

1. Log into your IL-2 User Account on the official Sturmovik website

2. Enter the official Store and place BOS in your cart. https://il2sturmovik.com/store/

3. Once BOS or BOK is in the cart you can add BOM to the cart and the 40% discount will be applied. Look for the Green box at the top of the cart and choose which edition of BOM you want to apply the discount to from the choices listed.

4. Proceed to checkout as normal.

 

Attention Steam Users: If you are a pilot who has come to us through Steam, you can also take advantage of this special offer. Simply follow the steps above and make the purchase through our store. The next time you launch through Steam, Battle of Moscow content will be available to you even if it is not listed in your Steam Library. We’re sorry, but this offer is currently not available through the Steam store itself.

 

At the moment, this option is not available, but most likely it will reappear in the near future. Also, we often hold sales of our games, collector planes and campaigns

[Jason_Williams]

Owning both titles does not qualify you for a discount. We periodically offer specials on various content. Keep an eye out for the next one as Blacksix mentions above.

OK - thanks will keep an eye out

Thanks guys. I've just convinced 4 of my squad mates (from DCS and CLoD) to join me on BOS and they're loving it. They all have BOS now but are balking at the BOK price. However, BOK is what they're after really (because of the Spitfire).

 

If we could get the above again, I'm quite sure i would get all 4 (plus two holding out) onto BOK as well. 

 

took me a while to get one of them into it...once he joined (and has been playing it every day for 2 weeks now), a 2nd joined then a 3rd, etc. Gotta keep up the momentum!!

Or you could talk them to support the teams efforts and buy BoK at full price  . In my opinion, by western standards and prices these days, it`s not even very expensive considering what comes in the package.

 

I have to admit I wonder sometimes how people are expecting to get everything with very low price or for free. The money to do these sims have to come from us if we wan`t to keep flying. Btw, I`m not particularly talking about you or your friends Pharaoh, just a general observation I`ve made during these years on this forum 

 

BoK is not getting discount very soon, I`m afraid. It´s not even released yet.

[Pharoah]

Understand your point but i think you're focusing on the trees and not the forest. They already bought BOS. A 40% discount would get them to buy into BOK. From then on you are almost guaranteed to now have a loyal customer that will purchase the next BoX release straight off the bat ie. you're building your customer base by buying future revenue for a 40% cost if that makes sense. 

 

Right now I have all 3 BoX releases plus the JU52. Thats a good $200 odd, but say US$150 for all 3 battles. For someone on the outside looking in, they would obviously balk at the investment (esp us from Aust with the prices being in USD so we pay more plus foreign exch fees). However, i like to use the analogy of a frog in a pot of boiling water - if you throw the frog in while the water is hot, it will jump straight out. However, if the frog is in there from the beginning (when the water is cold), it will stay in there and boil to death...

 

The BoX series benefits from a bigger customer base.

I am focusing to keep the genre alive. They already bought BoS at a discount. Now they have had the product with very reasonable price to test and see how it is. If they like it as they seem to do, it`s time to support this title and pay the full price. 

 

People should understand that if they wan`t to keep playing the BoX, they need to pay the price now. Not a for any future expansion maybe coming sometimes but now. 

 

No matter how this is turned around, it`s very simple. If there is no money, there is no game anymore. Any sim player should realize that.

 

Btw, BoK 40% discount is not coming soon, as I said it`s in early access atm. So I wouldn`t hold my breath waiting.

The series benefits from people buying the product at full price so 1CGS/777 and their families can make a living from this, eat, keep a roof over their heads, keep the electricity on and keep delivering content to their fans.

 

Attempting to nickle or dime the devs, ransoming them over your "10 friends" waiting to buy in, etc. doesn't move the genre ahead, it doesn't move the product ahead and it makes it impossible for a company to keep the doors open.

 

The profit margin barely exists as it is. Stop asking for things for free or at a financially disadvantageous price point.

Lets adopt your approach. The current high costs of entry are a barrier to new players wanting to join in, which will only get higher as they release new battles. So your approach is 'let them buy it at full price'. $60 x 0 = ?  

[216th_Lucas_From_Hell]

His approach is that 10 grown men with jobs, who own computers worth $600+, $100-1000 on flight gear, some of which own cars, houses and holiday houses and spend $200 weekly on dinners with their loved ones or whatever rocks their boats should be a little more considerate and spare $60 for a programme worth hundreds to thousands of hours of entertainment. Even for students, $60 is two outings to the pub these days. But the pub or your favourite restaurant will be there if you skip two-three nights out, while these guys could really do with an additional $700 from sales originated from a group that is just being cheap.

Not really sure what you're not understanding, this is basic business. Things cost money, if you or your friends can't afford them or don't think the value proposition is worth it then move along or wait for a sale.

 

That's just how life works...

Yeah, approximately the same as virtually every other good or service you can purchase. 

 

That's how you keep the lights on, feed your family, afford a vacation, stay in business, etc.

Out of upvotes but +1. This is exactly what I'm getting at.

Plus they will not have time for the weekly 200$ dinners with the loved ones anymore. Which should make the 60$ investment generating profit in no time at all.

The long con.

[Y29.Layin_Scunion]

I've always said if you can afford the time to play video games, you can afford the time to work as well.

If someone can't afford to shell out money for something, go get a 2nd job for a month part time.  You'll have the money to buy every premium installment at full price, all the collector planes and still have money to spare.  All at the sacrifice of your free time for a few days a week.

This isn't complex.
