[IainMcNeil]

Hi guys,

we're getting very excited about the impending launch of Panzer Corps. Only 2 days to go!

To keep you going here are some more screenshots. Enjoy!

Hi,

Can't wait for it! I've already asked this in another thread: how much does the "Give me everything" IAP cost? I've already purchased the Grand Campaign for PC and I'm not sure whether to buy it again for iPad...

[mysticfm]

Looks great! Are the iPad's battle animations the same as the ones I've seen (on YouTube) in the PC version?

What is the cost of all the content on PC??
I imagine the buy all option to be a few pounds off that total.

It's been mentioned about discount for using the buy all option although I expect it to still be a costly proposition.
I personally don't mind because I am not of the mentality that all apps should be 69p. Some are though.

Will Owen be allowed to post up a review prior to release? Not that it would put me off lol.
Be nice to whet the appetite even more. (as long as he's already done it)

HI guys

we're not talking about IAP pricing before release, but give me everything is substantially less than buying things separately.

[IainMcNeil]

As the game is out in New Zealand and probably Australian by now we can announce the pricing!

Here is a full break down now its out! This was in response to a post that didn't understand why iOS games cost more than $10 and were aghast that you had to pay for IAP as well.

The iPad version is £13.99

Panzer Corps is the full game that released at £29.99 on PC. This is what you are buying when you buy Panzer Corps. This is a full complete game with ~30 missions which cover the entire war from Poland to Berlin with some what if scenarios thrown in.

We later released 10 Grand Campaign expansions which have about 15 missions each and deal with the war in much greater detail. They bolt together to give you over 150 missions for the entire war. This is an enormous amount of content. There are literally hundreds of hours of gameplay for a single play through and there are branches for replay value. These are £2.99 each.

We also released 2 sequels to Panzer Corps. They are fully featured and the same amount of content as the original game. Allied Corps and Afrika Korps are full stand alone games on PC selling ~for £19.99 and on iPad for £10.49.

Each IAP is an expansion, not a part of the game that is taken off to charge for as an IAP. You get a full game for the base price. Obviously we can't give 12 expansions away for free - so they are available as IAP. You don't need them at all but if you like the game you can grab them.

Sorry for being a bit dumb here but is the base game £29.99? It's not specified in your post. I read $20 somewhere else.
Sorry for confusion.

Base game is $20, yes.

So can you purchase Allied Corp alone and get the Grand Campaigns as expansions?

No. Unlike desktop, where you can install different games into the same folder, on iPad every game lives in its own sandbox. If we released all expansions separately, game data would be duplicated several times on people's devices, and we would need ot patch every game individually too. This is a huge logistical overhead - we would need to build three patches instead of one, bring them all through Apple's approval process individually and the players would need to download the same thing 3 times too. So, we decided to avoid all this and put all content into one application. Base game is purchased in the App Store, and all the other DLCs and expansions are available as in-app purchases. This way we can also provide a discounted "give me everything" bundle.

Sorry for the confusion. It was a reply from another thread I copied and the original price was missing as it was further up the thread. I have added it to clear things up.

Thanks guys, all is good. Will be downloading when I wake up.
Much appreciated.
