Were we told that we buy a game in pre-beta status?
How could we know that officially announced features are not on the game?

You would even buy a piece of crap and tell others to shut up.

LOL then get the f/$ER%?&* of this board.

And if they did not release it when they did you would have been craying WHENNNNNN!!!!!!

Yea but at least if they didn't release it, they wouldn't have dragged their name in the dirt. I am not sure what the reasoning was, but they did it. And yes while complaining really doesn't matter we might as well just "STFU", and leave for the summer and hopefully by fall come back to something better, this is a community.

Everyone is here complaining because they care, because they want to love the game, I guarantee everyone in here complaining is an avid flight sim fan, and wants this game to be the best thing for the next 8 years.

So unless the boards are taking away from the 1C company or causing some server to meltdown, you need the complainers, because from my stance the "complainers" are about 50% of the sales, and I don't see any new simmers jumping ship anytime soon.

I got my first online kill last night. It was the single imost immersive gaming experience i have ever had, bar none.

Not only was I struggling to come up to speed if engine temperature effects and the additional work load just in flying the plane that that entails, but trying to identify the tagets against ground clutter and then get into a firing solution without loosing track of the target. (Who helped me in the last moments by flying past my sights! I think he was concentrating on something else)

CoD has it's problems, but no more that DCS:A-10 and ROF when they were initialy let loose on the world.

yet it's still too rough, but it will we the best by far, people just can't wait

Yeah I have to agree with a lot of the comments.

It's really a Beta so suck it up and wait for new patches. I certainly hope they get enough to make it viable or we are looking at a dead product. You can't sell this to new folks and expect them to stick with it.

It reminds me of DCS A10. Bought the prebeta with all the bugs and performance issues knowing it would become something really good. So far so good.

I really do hope this works out.

Well said, as long as it gets ironed out, which it sounds like maybe in a month or so... We will all forget about the first month or so of this paid Beta release...

Jawohl mein Führer!

The publishers and developers arn't stupid people and would not have released COD in the state it was in unless it was abolutely necessary. They new full well the respose would initially be bad. Now hopefully enough funds have been raised to secure further work on the series. This is actually a good thing for us, we may initially get a faulty product, but we now could have a product that will be continually added too and improved upon, instead of a development company that shuts down before the game is released.

Complainers that do so in a constructive manor are a great asset to the community, but there are more than a few that drive away new customers of the genre, which we all could ill afford. The only positive thing they do is provide entertainment, and keep the forums lively, while we still have a genre to participate in.

LOL all will be forgotten in "2 weeks"
