PMDG Douglas DC-6

Lol, there will be faux outrage no matter the price and it will be from people who have no interest in the aircraft at all.

70 sounds right to me (but it will cost more)

this is their golden opportunity to raise prices, and they will take it.

Does it have wingflex?

Iā€™ve purchased in all the categories above but for this particular aircraft, and knowing itā€™s PMDG, Iā€™m already expecting it to be at least $100.

with MSFS being so early on and therefore so many updates to come, this fairly complex model will need lots of follow on service from PMDG - theyā€™ll want to charge a price that at least tries to cover those expensesā€¦
if itā€™s under 80$ Iā€™ll be surprised

With the 737, 777 and 747 they had the ā€˜base packageā€™ and then ā€˜expansionsā€™. 777-200, pay extra and get the 300. Something like that. So maybe the initial price wonā€™t be that crazy, if they can cash in on additional stuff. I donā€™t know enough about the DC-6 to know if thatā€™s feasible. But if there were certain interesting variants they might.

Iā€™m not sure yet if I want it. But if I want it Iā€™ll pay whatever theyā€™re asking. Else I canā€™t get it.

one of what? yes i have sold a 2080ti for 1000$ used, am i qualified by your standards?
got a incoming 3080ti on itā€™s way will sale it also cause iā€™m using a 3090 right now or i may sell it instead. but for msfs 2020 3080ti or 3090 is not going to be a game changer, my 2080ti worked just the same if not better.

ā€œDoes it have wingflex?ā€

Comment of the day! Made me laugh. Good one.

The day weā€™d see a DC-6 wing flex in real life, weā€™d be in big trouble (as the wing would separate from the fuselage), so I hope itā€™s not modeled too accurately! :slight_smile:

im buying it no matter the price

Iā€™m expecting to pay USD $69.99. If itā€™s more I would be surprised and might balk, but Iā€™m weak. :wink:

Iā€™m kind of surprised to see people expecting prices higher than 80$ā€¦
I honestly hope you guys are wrongā€¦this is just wrong to charge that much for one aircraft in my opinion just as my kids are wrong to pay 15$ for a character skin in fortniteā€¦
The game is a masterpiece and it would be a slap in the face to think that one airplane is worth more moneywise than the game itselfā€¦I would go as far as putting a ā€œprice limit to not exceedā€ for 3rd party developers if I was in charge of Asobo/MSFSā€¦but thatā€™s just me. I think it would be pretentious from them (PMDG) to charge over 100$ for this and I will never fall for this nonsense even though I can easily afford itā€¦ Same for my kids, when they ask for gift cards to buy stuff on fortnite (V-Bucks lol), itā€™s always ā€œNOā€ I am not supporting this kind of abuse because thatā€™s exactly what it is.

Abuse? Price Limit Not To Exceed mandate? Pleaseā€¦ Just because you arenā€™t willing to pay the prices set by developers doesnā€™t mean you (or anyone else) should be dictating what others can do. Ultimately, the market will speak. I have a very good feeling that even with their $140 aircraft (plus expansions), PMDG is going to be just fine. They have managed thus far. They will continue to manage going forward.

This is FSLabs Airbus A320 for P3Dā€¦ This is in line with PMDGā€™s pricing as well.
