Do you remember Oleg mentioning he does not want to show too much as it is WORK IN PROGRESS and due competitors.
SoW has been under works a long time, gone through changes and all that. It is close to a release now and Oleg & Team has it covered what to do with their new sim. His comment about people was spot on, but seems the sim community are like that and we still wonder why simulators are a niché and not much produced 
Let's just sit back, enjoy the ride and soon fly SoW  Have a nice weekend all! |
I agree - a lot of people are pretty blind. They don't see the changes (or what is implied by them). They'd be happier with pre-rendered intro videos.
I don't think Oleg should really post update. I show up every friday for them though (but if I were him I'd have called it quits a while back). I'd say burn the forum to the ground! Leave nothing standing!
It seemed different in the old days (before Il-2 was released) - there were other WWII flight-sims in existence. If people were there it was because Il-2 had a novel environment (Great Patriotic War) and because Oleg was responsive and innovative.
IMHO, I think a lot of the whining demographic was on the CFS2 and CFS3 forums. Sure, we begged for features (politely) and there was even some groveling - but it wasn't this level of entitled bullshitting. Remember that it was a time period when only TK/EAW really consulted with fans and the Flanker team occasionally commented, but it was rare and a little aloof).
