But yes. Look at Falcon 4. Look at Vampire Bloodlines. Heck - look at IL2 4.11.1. That's what a dedicated community can do.

To many mixed messages each week has caused frustration in people. One week they are releasing a patch in a few days time and the following week no they are not. One week a patch is just about finished and the following week it's not. Directx 9 has always been a part of this game so why even mention about releasing a patch if they intended to fix the direct x 9 first?

That's it for me, over and out
 
That's it. Following week after week of poor excuses, it is very, very clear that we are no nearer to getting our faulty flight sims fixed than we were a year ago. Hat's off to the development team. They deserve significant credit for managing to produce an unending supply of plausible excuses that kept us al hanging on for the next release.... The issue is that 15 months on, we are all using a seriously flawed piece of software. Would I buy from this development team again ? Would anyone buy from this development team again ? The answer is a great big, wait for it..... NO.

Based on past performance and the plethora of excuses, we will be waiting until we have just had enough and sign off.

There is a lesson to be learned here. Never, ever buy the first release of any 1C sourced software. Simply wait, be patient and let others buy and try before you commit.

I find it incredible that the team invested anytime in any new developments until they had fixed their current products issues and satisfied their commitment to their current user base.

I'm putting this one down to experience. I won't be back and I won't be buying 1C software again. I'm only one individual and probably totally meaningless in the 1C scheme of things but, having wasted over 15 months of my time endlessly waiting for that next release, I have decided not to bother.

And just to put this completely behind me, I have just snapped the DVD and binned the box. I had thought about selling it on but who in their right mind would buy it? It's simply not worth any more time and hassle.

Good luck to everyone else on the forum. You clearly have far more patience that me.

You'll need to get your steam account perma-banned to put it completely behind you.

Bye ed-b!! We'll miss your not posting!

Oh give over please. A couple of weeks ago they announced they were testing a patch and all been well it would be released in a few days time - Remember Now? Then they talked about sitting down and fixing Directx 9 before they released it. Before this there was the 3 day fixes for the Clouds/Trees/Grass - Remember any of this? Must I really go on? Seems to me they change their minds from week to week, so like I said already - Giving out mixed messages.

In every developement, especially when entering new grounds, delays are to be expected, anybody getting excited about them, needs a reality check.

Delays because of unforeseen circumstances can't be neither planned nor avoided.
