And no, forcing someone to buy a new product to get an already paid for product to work as advertised is dishonest and possibly fraudulent. If you see no problem with dishonesty and fraud then I guess you are ok with it. I personally do not think they will do that, for those very reasons. |
The above posts by Bongodriver are eloquent lessons in getting under the skin but misguided. They typify the 'whinging-about-whinging'. It has become a sport in itself, a game (it has to be a game because there is so little factual substance to it.)
Most of of this type of post is 'getting your retaliation in first'. Of course, attempt to head off any perfectly valid and justified critcisms at the pass...makes those facts and criticisms disappear, pfft, just like that. Err.... It doesn't matter who makes the points, it is the game (or lack thereof) that generates them. That is the fundamental weakness in all the guardsmen who cannot bear the game to face pertinent criticism, or that anyone should be held to any sort of account. Details, man, details. Ben |

Well, as it's Pimms O'Clock in Moscow and we've heard not a thing, I guess the answer to the question is 'nyet'.

Aces, you're taking it too far. Lawsuits? No-one is going to take 1C to court based on Oleg and Luthier's posts on this forum.
But you weren't around when those posts were made. If you bought the game based on the website and the box, then of course (as a customer) you don't have many reasons to grumble about content. But as a forum member who was frequently in contact with Oleg and saw his posts about what would be included in the game, then one would have every-reason to feel misled. When I was talking to Oleg privately about the flight-kit modelled in the game, he told me that all my criticisms would be taken on board (following revision they did following information I sent them). This never happened. I won't grumble about something so petty, but it's quite symbolical of the way this game turned out. You can sit there telling people they are wrong to think a certain way in as many forms as you wish. The truth is that people did buy the game based on the aforementioned, and the truth is that a lot of fans felt let-down. You can't escape this. What I don't understand, though, is the need for people to prove this to you. Why would a lot of people lie about their motives for purchasing the game? Oleg's posts may have been taken too seriously, but until the announcement he was stepping down he was tangibly related to the game. It seemed official enough. |
