Why when ED wasn't responsible for the KickStarter? That was started by a third party that collapsed and ED picked up the pieces. If anything, people should be happy.
Ahh...that old chestnut:
Quote: September 1, 2013 - Legendary flight simulation designers Ilya Shevchenko, Igor Tishin, and Matt Wagner are excited to announce an upcoming Kickstarter campaign for a new WWII flight simulation being developed for the PC
Quote:
““We want to open a new page in WWII combat simulations,” said Matt Wagner of Eagle Dynamics.
From the Kickstarter:
Quote: Built by industry veterans with the same approach that made the famous flight sims of the past great, and in partnership with the experts at the Fighter Collection and Eagle Dynamics
Here's a thought...if you want to claim you have no responsibility on a project...maybe you shouldn't plaster your name all over it.

Some folk refuse to see beyond the propaganda. If I was ED I wouldn't refuse to acknowledge their part in the kickstarter (actually they never have denied they were in partnership, that is a line that the moderators over on EDs forums like to throw around) as in the year that they and RRG were in partnership the development of the ww2 project was far more productive than what has occurred during EDs sole ownership. EDs sole take over, the dismissal of ilya and crew from project management, has been a complete disaster, not only for DCS ww2, but for everything else they have had in development. The forced delays, extra work, abysmal failures to hit release dates. The last couple of years has been nothing short of pathetic to be honest.

DCS Kickstarter Wags July 2014 "In this July 2014 update, the primary news is in regards to the restructured backer rewards. After a careful review of the older system under RRG, we found it financially unattainable." Wags October 2017 "the investment vs. generated revenue has been excellent for the World War II aircraft. In fact, the P-51D Mustang has twice the cost effectiveness of the A-10C Warthog."
