I take exception to that, because I for one have said I wont buy the next chapter in this new series, and it's not because I want to get a rise out of someone. What I want is to voice my stance to the "powers that be" that if they want me to part with my $$$ on this sim I want to make sure I'll be buying a "usable" product. I want to know that features that are advertised will be available when I march in to the store to pick up my copy. The thing that I'm peeved off about, and most here I would assume, is the fact that on the day I picked up my $110 special edition of CloD, it didn't work, and as a result of that I wont be buying it the next chapter if BoM turns out to be the same. I'm a dedicated flight simer, since lucas arts SWOLW, but I'm no shmuk. Don't get me wrong, for me it's not a matter of the cost, hell I'd be more that happy to pay double for a SE if I knew I would be getting what I pay for on the day, and I can live with bugs because I know (well can image at the very least) the challeges the devs have in front of them. But I reject the notiion that the paying customer should pay for product that isn't finished. If the devs need money then adopt the model DCS have done with their beta programs. Offer a beta for a cost and then pay for additional a/c as time goes on. I'm happy with that beacuse I'm being informed upfront what I'm paying for. Sorry if this all sounds a bit rough, but the constant bashing of people who voice their opinions because they're not happy is really getting old. Do you honestly think there would be this much "whining" if the product actually worked? |

Trying to talk luthier into constant and meaningful communication is just like trying to teach a dog how to move on two legs only. It may work for a few seconds but it will always remain an unnatural way of moving - just like comminicating and doing PR-stuff is going against luthier's nature. He's a "Don't disturb me, I'm working on something" kind of guy who'd love nothing more than work on his Q.T. without being bothered. He doesn't like publicity, he doesn't like having to talk about his work, to explain his ideas and concepts. The way I see it the poor BlackSix is the fig leaf who has to appease the crowd with a few crumbs ... I don't expect anything from MG in this department anymore, the times of Oleg are over and are not going to come back. |
@ mysticpuma
+1000 but Im affraid nothing will be changed. We will see next alpha/beta/gamma patch in next month. Couple things will be solved, again couple will be broken. Not a final patch with all. Its a never ending story (but with small hope after near 1,5 year). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MccmHwA-c4U |

I hope to get some of them addressed but not all of them I expect will be addressed to your satisfaction. (everyones) I hope by putting a little bit of effort and structure around your questions that we will get some of the answers we are looking for. Keeping in mind it is unlikely we will get a response to everything and I think probably unreasonable to expect so. Some of the questions still need to be asked even if they have no decision or timeframe yet but please be understanding that some things just cant be given answers because they either havent got around to assessing it because its not a priority or because they need to wait for the announcement of the sequel and around the MMO aspects before further information can be provided. That and the fact that software development is not strictly science, its a bit of a black art, mixed with science and creativity so its unfortunately not as simple as 1+1=2. ;) As I have also mentioned prior it is also hard and takes a lot of time for the translation from English to Russian, for these things to be tabled and discussed with the team and then translated back from Russian to English. It is more important that the team work on the patch and sequel than spend time appeasing everyones various foibles with the game, and it's also a privilege not a right to have communication from the developer on the forum. Constructive Questions please.. I will be harsh with anyone in breach of the rules as I have made it very clear! >> http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=33120 |

and make no mistake though, some really do seem to enjoy it. |
Perhaps it's because getting any info out of 1C:Maddox is like pulling teeth, and people feel that their concerns are not being heard/acknowledged/addressed?
