We were promised by the developers more accurate flight models and damage models. We got them.

We were promised by the developers highly detailed terrain and objects. We got them.

We were told that a machine that could run IL2 1946 at maximum settings could run COD on mimimum settings, thankfully they were being overly cautious there an any people can run the sim on medium if not higher.

We were also promised dynamic weather, as far i I know we have it but most PC at this stage can't run it so you have to actually go and build a mission that's got it. How many have tried?

We have also been given a list of priorities and bugs that the developers are working towards solving. How often do you want the developers to come here and say "Sorry! Not ready yet" weekly, Daily or on the hour? Personally I'ld rather them being hard at work and tell us when they got something to show us.

Cheers!
c'mon mate - we got snowed.

they were showing us videos of the game running brilliantly just a week before release, when it was impossible on any such system to get these results.

they told us they'd gone out and recorded new aircraft sounds and even dubbed real merlin sounds over promo vids.

they spun us some nonsense about how brilliant the new AI modelling was.

Luthier got into some hilarious slanging match with tree a couple of months before release in which he implied tree was off his rocker to suggest the game was not running properly.

all the youtube vids released showing dogfights were done over ocean - not over land because the developers must have known how shocking performance was over land.

Don't get me wrong - i want to see this game come good. But man, if this were any other product I'd be thumping my fist on the counter demanding a refund.
