II/JG17_HerrMurf Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Even if it is free wouldn't it still potentially prevent pilots who haven't downloaded it from flying on particular servers? I'd prefer a couple maps and two to four planes in mini packs anyway. Forty'ish bucks for that? Edited December 30, 2014 by HerrMurf

I'd prefer a couple maps and two to four planes in mini packs anyway. Forty'ish bucks for that? I know some of the ROF boys hate it, but I always though that the 3 for $30 packs for ROF were fair enough. I fly the Steam version. I don't know that I, personally, would pay for something the size of Novosokolniki (SP?) or the other smaller vanilla map (can't think of the name for that one)... Those little quake maps don't do a lot for me but frustrate me when the AI take advantage of my flying over the border of the map... But if it were something like the Channel map I could probably justify the expense. Edited December 30, 2014 by FalkeEins
1CGS zeus-- Posted December 30, 2014 1CGS Posted December 30, 2014 Hi, pilots.Map is done by 95% At the moment, we (and devs) think about the gameplay on it. So please be patient As for me, I would like to make it completely free for online-projects. As for offline, then a no final decision yet. 2

EGValar Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 Truly, this looks excellent. I for one wouldn't mind paying for it, especially if it came with singleplayer content.
Brano Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 I like the idea of that poll on russian forum.Particulary option to have it for 40-50$ together with Fw and La5.As a DLC for those who bought only standard version.Separate only-map download in range from 10-20$ is OK with me.No one should work for free and good work deserves rewards.It also adds to motivation greatly.I would like to see more maps form Zeus&co in future Paid maps are a bad idea and will split up multiplayer community (see RoF Channel Map as an example). Then buy it and you are good to go.I see no point in such kind of arguments.
79_vRAF_Friendly_flyer Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 So please be patient You could tease us with some more screenies!

Zeus - Thanks for your effort on this map, however I think there should be a fee for it. It's good for your pocket and helps foster talent in our small community. We can't sustain this genre if it expects freebies much of the time. Please reconsider your position. Cheers gx
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 $20.00 bucks isn't a bad amount for the new maps and time and summer textures coming up.
Leaf Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 $20.00 bucks isn't a bad amount for the new maps and time and summer textures coming up. Whoa, did you just drop some news that only testers know about?
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 Whoa, did you just drop some news that only testers know about? post #339 take look
No601_Swallow Posted January 10, 2015 Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) post #339 take look I got the impression that that screenie was a quick little photoshop "experiment" - almost a joke - that Zeus had done with the, erm, tile/texture/map elements. I honestly think he was just fooling around. Still, it does look good, doesn't it! Let's dream of summer! http://youtu.be/UFatVn1hP3o Edited January 10, 2015 by No601_Swallow
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 He stated he was expementing with Summer spring fall
pencon Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 YES , Summer maps ! It's winter right now where I live and then I get on this sim and there's the snow brrrr . After a while you find yourself daydreaming of summer and you realize that this sim really needs some other maps . We all get the winter blahs and lets face it , summer maps would be a huge improvement . 1
Yakdriver Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 and Boats and small Tugs and ships and stuff on the rivers... caustic textures animations...Morale really down here, could use a few hundred shades of green and some clear skies with no murky sunlight... 1
1CGS zeus-- Posted January 22, 2015 1CGS Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) Hi all. A little update. Now we are working on campaign dedicated to soviet Velikie Luki offencive operation. We're prepearing 4-stage campagin with set of offline missions for each stage. 1st stage (november 25th - december 1st)Breakthrough of german defence lines and encirclement of Velikie Luki, building of siege positions. 2nd stage (december 2nd - december 10th)Elimination of german mobile groups in Shiripina-Schelkovo-Telegnikovo region. Battle on right wing of encirlement front against 8th panzerdivizion on Ryadnevo-Rusalovo defensive positions. 3rd stage (december 10th- january 6th)German break-out operation in Velikie Luki pocket. 4th stage ( jan.10 - jan.21)Destruction of german deblocking forces and elimination of last pockets of german resistance in Velikie Luki area. For each of these stages we'll make own minimaps with proper markings. There are lot of work to be done but we need to fulfil all our plans. Without this campaign our map is meaningless.

Brano Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Hi Zeus, You can still release version just for QMB like Novosokolniki untill all is finished. Looking forward to see and fly your campaign 1
1CGS zeus-- Posted January 22, 2015 1CGS Posted January 22, 2015 Will there be LW missions included as well? Sure. We're planning missions for both side. 5
SCG_Space_Ghost Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Sure. We're planning missions for both side. Awesome news! I'm in.
Lusekofte Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Looking forward to this, many thanks for your effort´s
LLv24_Zami Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Great news! A new campaign is allways very welcomed. Nice job
oneeyeddog Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 This is very welcome news indeed. Thanks Zeus!
71st_AH_Mastiff Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) awesome, Zeus, any sneak peaks of your side; summer, fall textures your working on? Edited January 22, 2015 by 71st_Mastiff
HBB*Hunger Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Just awesome! Very good work guys, keep it goin!
No601_Swallow Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Hi all. A little update. ... For each of these stages we'll make own minimaps with proper markings. There are lot of work to be done but we need to fulfil all our plans. Without this campaign our map is meaningless. No Zeus. Even with no missions and/or no campaign, your map is still a work of art and a stunning achievement. A campaign would be just "the icing on the cake"! And a great opportunity to learn about this epic little (by Ostfront standards) battle. Thank you to you and your comrades for all you work!
Sim Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Can't wait for this map to be released! Just for fun, I have overlaid both Stalingrad and Velikie Luki map areas on top of Google Earth:
Veteran66 Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 4-stage campagin, that look like a lot of work.
D_Konig Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 You guys really should charge /something/ for all this work - even if it is only 5 bucks or something. I love these games I would gladly pay a few dollars for more campaigns,maps,planes etc. Cheers!
