Halloween is great as an adult.

 

It's almost a contest to see who can wear less. 

 

I'm totally winning this year :biggrin:

Haha they do run separate sales on their website though. 2020 and 2021 were on their site exclusively (IIRC)

No, it's a shite thing. Woke is when you can't go out begging for 'a penny for the guy, mister?'

There’s no Halloween in Russia. :)

What, you play 'strip dunking for apples' ?

Well I never. 

 

And no more sales either, they need all the cash they can get to buy someone with a name beginning with 'J', out of their contract. 

Or so I heard...

The celabration of Halloween is a moot issue and really has no pertinance here. Russia has never celebrated Halloween, most people know that. :)

 

1C put up Halloween sales the past 2 years on their site on October 21st. It would be fair to think that would repeat this year. At this point I'm guessing it will just be via the Steam Halloween sale next week.

Sometimes it's strip dunking for apples.

 

Sometimes it's one too many jello shooters and my alcohol fueled poor judgement :biggrin:

Im pretty sure the Producer/Developer doesn't handle sales, it's the Publisher, and the Publisher has always been 1C, afaik. Come to think of it, isn't 1C the Dev and the Publisher?

Sales are certainly nice but they have never dictated what and when I purchase. I have everything 1CGS offers , some I got on sale but the vast majority I got at regular or early access pricing. I even have stuff I will never use, like Tank Crew. Also have FC1 and FC2 incoming, never flown FC yet either.

But in my mind they deserve my support for bringing so much stuff I love to the table, namely a good WWII combat flight sim. So I give them all my support when I can. And I do intend to get in and fly Flying Circus here hopefully in the not too distant future.

Too many good sims and too little time...

I understand, but I planned on buying the entire set of products I didn't own.

Cool.
There will be other sales in the next few months. Typically, Lunar New Year, 

Easter, Summer, Halloween/Black Friday, Autumn, Christmas. There are lists of historical DCS sales on reddit .. might give you insight.

Delayed gratification is often good too so they say.
Or maybe just buy one new module and learn that... I have had the FA-18C for the best part of this year and there is still plenty to learn and techniques to improve.

Hmmm….no, I rather think that sales strategy is in the hands of the executive producer and that’s Jason, which is why we’ve had halloween sales, Labour day sales, etc.

I doubt there will be any sale before Jason pops up again.

Buying DCS modules and taking years to learn them is the story of my life. Lol

Welp, nothing IL2 related in the Halloween Sale either.

 

So much for that.

CloD is, oddly enough?

 

Was hoping to convert some players of other sims over to this one but oh well, there will be later opportunities
