Yes, we just have to wait, which is sometimes the hardest thing to do

I wait best for things I don't know are coming however we've known this is coming for so long that we've all become very impatient.

That's just being human. Unfortunately, being on the internets is not like being human and so people come here to vent emotive thoughts in ways they would never employ in real life.

I've waited what - 7 years? was this announced in 2003 or 2005? I can't remember. As frustrated as anyone else, I continue to wait and look forward to a new Oleg Maddox product.

I'd rather we already had it, but I'd like to think I've some appreciation of how complex the development is and the difficulties that have been experienced.

Now it's just my opinion, but I thought IL-2 was quite good. Perhaps the majority of you didn't like it. But given what we got with IL-2, I'm totally stoked about a new game from Mr Maddox and am sure it'll be great. Maybe IL-2 wasn't good enough for many of you, but I was very impressed indeed.

I hope he realises (and I'm sure he does, actually) that the most critical opinions tend to come from those most oblivious to the constraints of the medium worked upon and the time frame existing within which to produce said work.

But then remember: it's easy to pick faults. Nothing's perfect, so there's always scope to complain. It's a weak state of being, mind: to look for flaws when one could be appreciating the bigger (and much more beautiful) big picture.

Look for the beauty in life. Appreciate the positive. Don't be arseholes.

Or as they say round my parts: Wise up to yourselves!
