Of course unforeseen factors always exist, but the most possible scenario under the current information is that we are getting there.

With most of the long-term issues well documented by now and the increase in dev team size, i suspect it will take less time to fix the individual aircraft or system specific bugs (eg, bombsights, gyrocompasses, CEM issues) after the graphics update is complete.
After all, redoing the gfx engine from scratch is like rewriting half the game, while correcting a bugged cockpit control is more a case of altering a few expressions in the code than recoding the whole thing from scratch.

At least that's my personal interpretation of it.


I would also like to thank the community for keeping it civil. Most people are happy with the update, some not so much and others outright doubt it, but they are all sticking to what an update thread is: the developer presents some information and we respond back to the developer with our feedback (positive or negative) and our questions.

I see no baiting, no circular arguments and "let me convince you of why you are wrong" marathons in this thread. I only see flight simmers allowing each other to express their opinions (even if they disagree among themselves) and address the developer with their concerns. This is the way it should be and i'm very happy we as a community can finally do it. Last but not least, it makes my job as a moderator easier

So in conclusion, all i have to say to development team and community alike is: keep doing what you/we are currently doing
I agree, it's almost better than the update itself.
