I've never griped about the people making missions and getting paid for their work, that's fair do's.....the problem has always been that ED seem to put more focus and effort into these even though they have to support them through patches and fixes to the core game just to get them out for sale into the public domain......obviously at the expense of the other MUCH HIGHER priorities such as getting the modules out of beta that have stalled for years on end, getting Normandy out, getting the multi-dev branch combined into a single stream, sorting the mess that is Nevada and getting the remainder of the engine sorted out to support 2.5....you know, these little things that could do without getting sidetracked to support all these additional campaigns.

How you can defend ED and state that 'assets' were never in DCS World Core just shows the mentality of what this farce has become. You're effectively saying that 'Normandy' is just a terrain and nothing else, even though it is set in WW2/1944 - that's laughable and you wonder why people are up in arms about all these payware assets. It also goes to show the reasoning behind why the 'World' is so bleak, empty and uninteresting.......ED never actually thought to furnish a map with anything relevant, yet that has now become a showing of greed. If a 'World' doesn't include assets, then I assume it doesn't include the sky, weather and anything else that lives in a 'World' either and therefore these will also be payware additions in the near future.

How's about renaming this entire enterprise 'DS' instead......because only 'Digital' and 'Simulator' is relevant. The combat is limited and it most certainly isn't a 'World' in anyone's definition.
