OnAlienware Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 About different content and owning both PE and 2:I don't think you'd do this, but I'll ask anyway... You wouldn't withhold content (like an M1A2) from PE in order to push PE customers into a SB2 purchase, right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan323 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Just set yourself up on Teamspeak, and hop in the lobby tonight for TGIF. I'm sure someone will let you gun for them. Hell, you can jump in mine anytime. I make a wonderful target. I've lost count of how many times I've had my ride shot out from under me. An extra pair of eyes is always welcome.See ya out there 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Is it best to wait until the release of 2.4 before buying the game? I don't want to just install it then have to fork out a bit more to get the latest update! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GH_Lieste Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 It will cost the same either way…$125 now, plus later the increment for the update, or the combined price for both once the update is available. The first allows you to start learning now, but the second only requires a single install - rather than two seperate installs if you want both versions, or install, uninstall and install new version if you only want the updated version. Your tolerance for computer configuration, and your urgency to start with SB ProPE are the only factors to consider. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn't withhold content (like an M1A2) from PE in order to push PE customers into a SB2 purchase, right?I can't rule out that there might be time delays between the release of vehicles (certainly not excessive ones). The main focus as I see it right now would not be simulation specific elements like a certain playable vehicle but elements that aren't remotely a part of SB Pro PE yet (and probably never will be because they have no training relevance).Steel Beasts Pro: Focus on training value, with entertainment elements where they do not stand in the way of good training.Steel Beasts X: Focus on entertainment value, with serious simulation elements where they do not stand in the way of good entertainment.All these statements depend by and large on the assumption that eSim Games retains full control over the release of SB X. If there was a publisher to do this, he would certainly want to have a say in all this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratguts Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I am new to this site, but I used to play the old SB a long time ago. I just placed my order for Pro and cannot wait to get my hands on it. After reading these forums for a few days I just had to give this sim a try. Hopefully I will get decent enough to get shot at online 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted January 18, 2009 Members Share Posted January 18, 2009 It's not that difficult. If even dumb-ass tankers like me can do it, why shouldn't you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratguts Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 HAHA! Well maybe in the next couple weeks I can get up to speed on the finer points of being an ammo magnet! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
