payed dlc format

Recommended Posts

it not really donating it more like walking in to a shop picking up and ipod and only paying for it if you want too

In this given scenario how many people do you think would be walking out with free ipods.

yes most people will take it for free thats sort of the point that way no one missis out because they can't afford to pay, this way you dont split the community in two 1 map that EVERYBODY can play nobody misses out yet the dev's get some well earned cash

"Basically your idea is to give people an easier way to donate money to developers."

sort of but you donate for something it is paying for the map. it not really donating it more like walking in to a shop picking up and ipod and only paying for it if you want too

so basically it isnt a dlc its a donation for a gift

and your use of the word *millions* makes this MOD seem to have a much larger player base than it really has. we are looking at MAYBE 2 million. and thats pushing it.

I have to point out to everyone 3 things

1 Rocket himself said on Sundays video in the q&a "payed dlc maps"

2 BI is not a large company they don't make a lot of money you can say millions hear and millions there but they also SPEND millions,

think about it when they sent there mappers to Spain how much do you think it cost them ??? and no i am not talking about the jail time i mean before. hotels, flights, car hire and they where paying the people to do it, on top of that the have tax, rent gas, electricity, wages. and they only release a new product every few years to cover it

they NEED the money they always do

3 the cost to make a map to this level is high, these are not some people work in there bedroom from imagination to by looking out there window, they use satellite images and not Google earth they pay for high def ones, how much dose that cost??? 500? 1000? 2500? who knows but i bet it is not cheep

then you have the people making the map lets say 2 programers working for 6 mouths. now my friend has a degree in computer game programing and when he GOT OUT of uni he was earning £50,000 a year so lets be conservative and say thats what they pay the team 2 for 6 months £50,000

then they have to send the people out the the area that the map is based on to get impersonation lets call it £2000 all in

being conservative a high detail large map made to professional standard would be £53,000

still think charging for maps is greedy

and to the people that are on this thread, would you pay if you where given the option not to ???
