[QUOTE=luthier;247765]Hi everyone. I’m very sorry to see that some of you are having technical difficulties with the game. It pains me personally to see that these problems are preventing you from enjoying everything the game has to offer. [End quote]
I'm sure you are pained Luthier. And so are we. But you should also be totally embarrassed.
[Quote] The team has been working at a frantic pace since mid-summer. I personally have been working 12+ hour days 7 days a week pretty much non-stop, with only a short breather around Christmas. Optimization has always been our top priority; for example, the game you are playing now is roughly twice as fast as the version shown at Igromir. [End quote]
Which begs the question: why are you working 'at a frantic pace' after 7 years? Clearly because this project has been moved on and off the back burner so many times as more lucrative work came in that no one has managed - understandably - to keep control of it. But to have basic elements such as the mixture and radiator control ass about face is just unforgivable.
[Quote] We are continuing to work at the same pace now, after the release – no weekends in sight. We are working very hard to make the game better, and we hope that even those of you who are unhappy with the state of the game are still able to see that it is worth the wait, and that you have faith in

our ability to improve on your experience. [End quote]
People working at that pace are will inevitably become exhausted - if they aren't already - and just make more mistakes. After this initial showing I have NO CONFIDENCWE WHATSOEVER in you making things better within a reasonable time scale.
Years ago you were showing us all sorts of eye candy such as waving grass and the exactly correct type of machine guns on military vehicles. IMHO, this just showed how completely screwed up your priorities were.
Many have been highly sceptical of attitude of the 'development teram' since the very earliest days. And sadly, we were 100% right to be so.
