hum i feel like its the 3rd time am reading the same thread since the release of the game , her's how it goes usually :
- op ask if redkit is coming
- community start to speculate and blame itself for stupid arguments ( at this point CDPR are reading the thread and laughing at us )
- mod come in and warn peoples
- Marcin come in and basically say " yeah not happening, move on "
- community start to blow up, arguing that he said " at the moment, wich does not mean no ! "
- mod come again and nearly close thread
now here are my two cent :
CDPR would be crazy to not release a packaged version of W3 with the two expansions, its basically free money, a new customer would be scared to buy the base game+ 1 expansion + 2 expansion, nothing better than one easy packaged version that has everything and for a lower price, and you centralize your product around 1 thing compared to scattered products left and right, just easier to manage
the problem is that they cant " just " pack them together and release it like that, they have to add value to it, a least to market it, by the time this happen ( 2017?) many games will be out and as awesome W3 is, will technically be behind on some points ( it already was at the release reading from its own hardcore fan base ..), so adding values to the package is pretty obligatory
now what that value could be ? enhanced edition ( graphics + gameplay ) ? redkit ? BOTH ? that would be crazy, and i doubt it will happen, what am saying is if redkit will ever come out it can only come along with an enhanced edition of the game, consoles players have the enhanced part and PC players have both, i can hardly see them release a packed version with redkit being the only added value since it will only be for PC, what would they offer for consoles players ? they cant just release redkit like that
so its either full blown enhanced edition + redkit, or nothing, or maybe we will never ever get redkit again, this is what i believe personally, they simply dont want their game to be heavily modded, they want to protect the IP and its integrity and let it go to sleep at some point ( to better revive it later because W4 will definitely happen ), and as much as i like mods, they basically are against those points
so there you go, i will be waiting for the 4th thread about redkit
