Thanks guys for spending the last nearly 7 months working on a patch that has just ended my squads slight fun that we had on a sunday evening.

Is this really what you have to show for after nearly 7 months??

Take it easy man, this is just the pre-beta version of the patch. There will be fixes and improvements in the final patch version.

cmon, give the guys a break, at least to retail version; there's not that many WW2 sim devs around...

[Bonkin]

If you don't want to help with testing an alpha release just role back to the previous version, i.e. let steam update it for you.

What part of BETA are you unable to comprehend? Honestly, all the patch notes were on there for everyone to see and be aware of. If you didn't read it, your fault. Just have Steam revert your files and go back to your idiocy.

When??

there is not way anyone can fly with this (nightmare patch), at least more than a few minutes before launcher crash.. so unless it comes very quick, the game is basically worthless unless we go back to pre-patch..

So, do we just wait, uninstall, and go back,, and wait 6 months?
We are stuck in limbo, with a difficult decision...

I doubt people will want to fly and restart every few minutes for 6 months..

Jesus people, calm down. It's called an alpha for a reason.

Nitrous, maybe we're looking at this the wrong way. Maybe we should be looking at the amount of money that the company made from us with an incomplete product and perhaps create a sim of our own that will be half finished, and we'll just tell people we're working on it. Meanwhile, we'll go to Jamaica, put down a couple of Red Stripe and smile :)

Really?

I see it for what it is

A beta patch

One that they themselves said has issues (disabled features) and are providing it for the sole purpose of getting feedback from the users (logs, dumpfiles).

Now we can either be part of the solution here and provide our logs and dumpfiles or we can sit back and complain that this beta is not the final patch

Your choice!

Can I work there?

You're hired.. don't worry about credentials.
BTW.. I changed the plans slightly, we'll talk about it in Jamaica. :)

This is a testing patch that is not even beta.

It's not final. Which means, it's not meant to be flawless. Its purpose is to experiment with different solutions, put it out to volunteer testers and gather the results, so that later they can simply go "this works and we're keeping it, this doesn't and we're changing it".

I'm locking this, not because of criticism on the patch, but because of the tone of said criticism, breach of forum rules and redundancy (there are already numerous similar posts).

The bottom line is very simple. If you are willing to spend your time testing and providing feedback, install the test patch and fly it. If you just want to step into the final version where things work right off the bat, wait for the final patch.

There's nothing wrong with either approach. What is wrong is assuming things will be as one wants them to be when there is ample statement to the contrary, then complaining about it when it is not the case.

It's like i'm showing you an apple, you want to believe it's an orange, take a bite and then complain that it tastes like apple. :-P
