Got Friends: Legacy Collection Official Announcement
We are happy to announce that six of your favorite Got Friends aircraft will be coming to Xbox Series in the future! We have worked hard with Microsoft to get these legendary aircraft to the console crowd and we are pleased to let you know that the wait is coming to a close.
Legacy Collection will Include:
Savage Grravel
Savage Carbon
Monster NXCub
Vertigo
MXA
Lake Skipper
Price will be the absolute minimum allowed at $4.99 for the entire pack!
You could ask four times the minimum price - knowing that we’re getting the usual GotFriends quality is reason enough for me to pay for what would be freeware aircraft under normal circumstances.
On behalf of this Xbox simmer: thank you very, very much.
This is absolutely brilliant news! I have had my eye on a few of these and a little frustrated that I couldn’t access them. The lake skipper looks absolutely brilliant fun! Thanks Got Friends - every release of yours makes me smile. The enthusiasm you have for flight is contagious!
The Got Friends: Legacy Collection was signed off for release. What does this mean? It means that we have passed all the testing required and that we have given Microsoft the “Green Light” to proceed with distrobution. This legacy collection will include six of our best freeware aircraft: The Savage Grravel, Savage Carbon, Vertigo, MonsterNX, MXA, and Lake Skipper. You will be able to pick those aircraft up on the in-game marketplace for the minimum allowable price of $4.99. We hope to see a release next week but this process may take an extra week or two. Keep your eyes peeled and get ready for something special!
For PC Simmers, the Legacy Collection allows you to download all six aircraft in an easy installation. If you don’t want to manage them manually through our website, we highly recommend you pick this package up in order to ease your stress during updates. That said, next week we will be releasing new “Version 1.0.0.” of each aircraft superseding their previous versions. It’s a fresh start and rightfully so as they needed to be marketplace ready. You will still be able to download each individual aircraft for free from our website if you prefer manual installation.
NOTICE: All Livery Packages for the Savage Grravel, Savage Carbon, MonsterNX, and Vertigo that have been created by the community will need to be updated in order to follow the correct Aircraft.CFG format. Microsoft had us modify each aircraft and we are pretty sure that some liveries will fully break the new upcoming versions. Once you install “Version 1.0.0.” of each aircraft or purchase them via the Marketplace, please ensure you DO NOT HAVE any community liveries for those aircraft in your Community Folder unless they have been updated to take advantage of the new fallbacks. This is why we will release the new versions for PC very soon in order for livery artists to update their packages prior to marketplace release. We sincerely apologize for this major inconvenience, but there was no other option.
Not really I’m sure it wouldn’t be too hard to remove the guns like they did with the Wildcat but perhaps still not worth the effort for GF when they have other stuff they could spend the time on.
Maybe we get it in the next legacy batch…fingers crossed.
MonsterMX, Savage Grravel, and Savage Carbon are based on highly modified Bush Variants of the Savage Cub and NXCub
Vertigo is based on Turbulence by Mike Patey using VL3 as a base.
They were some of our earliest work and many of them are solo ventures by Got Gravel and Mykrode. That said, we have fully nativized them and brought them up to today’s sim standards from their original releases. Fully reworked as a team and transitioned into the “Got Friends” ecosystem for updates and improvements.
Got Friends: Legacy Collection Released! Now Available for Xbox Series X|S and PC
Thank you to the entire Got Gravel/Got Friends Community for all the loyal support over the last 2-Years. Getting these aircraft in-game would have not been possible if it wasn’t for your dedication to our small team. On behalf of Got Friends, we would like to thank you for an amazing journey throughout our Freeware to Payware transition!
