so if you brought a box of chocolates and all but 4 were rotten you wouldnt demand a refund then ???


This is ignorant and wrong. Developers are at the mercy of publishers. And 505 games, despite what a lot of you may think, do deserve credit, not only for taking the gamble with this niche product at a time when the whole world is desperate for revenue, but also for putting out the patch, despite the delay.yeah there great publishers i emailed them over a month ago asking in a polite maner about the patch they couldnt even be bothred to reply and they have now in antons own words forbidden the devs to mention anything about them yes they deserve credit for great customer service not!!! wether they took a risk or not if the product any company release is broken they fail lets look at the car manufacturers for an example if they relesed a model that was broken they do a product recall not bury there heads in the sand and hope noone notices ???


I think this is the core of your's and all other PC converts problem... You had massive expectations for this game, and as such it didn't meet them. It's not the dev's or the publisher's fault that the product that they've released doesn't meet your expectations. But those of us that evaluate it on it's own merits, and not what it could have or should have been, are having fun with it.well if it doesnt meet the standards of previous il2 games it shouldnt bear the ill2 name then should it all that will achive is drag the good product name of il2 down


Again, ignorant and niave about the workings of the game industry. Publishers don't give a crap what gamers want. They look at their spreadsheet of what sells and make more of it until it stops selling. Now and then the odd publisher will take a risk on something, like 505 did with BoP. But when it gets thrown back in their face it's going to make them less inclined to do so. So it's behaviour like yours that is endangering these sorts of releases.

so the fact that the game needs a patch as its broken and doesnt furfill what it says it does on the back of the case wont harm this game genre then ?


all this arguing about this game is crud its took what was when i first came here a great and tight comunity and split it down the middle and made us all cranky and bitchy at each other i put most of that down to all this waiting for a patch and the fact that 505 game cant even be bothered to inform the very comunity that was supporting this game by simply making a single post to reasure ppl that the patch was even coming


rant over
