Exactly..say what you want when you want, it will get edited or it won't, this forum is nothing like you've seen before as it has 2 rules not just 1 so basically you lose......everytime :)

@Crane...box art is good, I like the map in the collectors edition, it's well wicked

IMHO next patch will not solve more than 50% of crucial issues. I hope there is a chance that BoM solves 90% if the team adopts Oleg's perfectionism and uncompromising quality control procedures.

Anyway looking at 3rd party addins and scripts by Banks, Small_Bee and others I am very confident in 3-5 years this engine provides the best flight-sim experience and fun ever imagined. Not to everyone of cause.

PS. RoF and DCS are good too.

This is a ridiculous argument banded around on this forum. Collectively we as a community have spent millions of $.

If we all chipped in for a Ferrari and it wouldn't run properly should we suck that up as well?

No one is asking for premature releases etc but dropping us a line every week or so is hardly a big ask...even if there is little to report. Like I said it only takes a minute or two to write a couple of lines.

millions? on COD?

Based on this forum.. The biggest problem with CoD is not what was promised and not delivered, but what the community 'believes' was promised and not delivered. Combined that with people unrealistic 'expectations' and 3rd party 'hype' of what should have been delivered and it is easy to see why these types of people are so upset and even feel cheated.

The only cure for this feeling of being cheated is for these types of people is to take the time and list all the things they 'belive' they were promised and compare that list to what was 'actually' promised by 1C (i.e. listed on the box or official 1C web sites and advertisement). Than and only than do they stand the chance of realizing that the list is actually a very short list.

wow, already 4 pages about nothing....and the most stuff said a trillion times already in the past (from both sides btw) :D

1. Luthier said that sli and crossfire are working so I bought the game, but they're not.

2. I won't buy Battle of Moscow, this is the cure for my feeling.

Luthier has said they'll continue working on CoD so what's the problem? He has stated very clearly that they're working on CoD and BoM in parallel. I for one am very happy that they're working on the graphics....any increase in FPS is good in my book and I'm quite prepared to wait for that and many other goodies.

1c, like any other company, must pay wages and bills. They MUST develop new products to generate future earnings as they'll be out of business in no time. We really can't expect them to remain completely fixated on CoD as that would be business suicide which wouldn't be good for us or them would it?

I personally don't see any problem at all with paying full price for the BoM product if that means I immediately get access to a host of new and exciting objects, features and improvements for CoD at the same time. It could be like a new game. Most features that have been postponed for BoM were never officially promised for CoD - they were just hopeful noises made by Oleg and crew at various points in the development. As such, we really can't complain that they won't be handed out free as a CoD patch.

On the other hand, radio comms, AI and crashes do need to be addressed as patches and from what I've read from the devs, this is all in hand. All will come good in time. Be sure.;)

Bet you do.;)

Like I said.. a short list

Promise?
