There is no chance they aren't doing plenty of flight testing online while at work on their own servers (and probably the Repka servers), and are more than well aware of the issues. They've also probably built and tested the performance of a number of revisions of the graphic engine, and will continue to do so until they feel its ready to release.

The particle issue appears to be the last stumbling block for the performance patch. Of course this could be all bullcrap, but what purpose would it serve, they've already sold the majority of the copies of COD there going to sell until its fixed, and the majority of us won't buy the Sequel unless we see and hear positive things from those who have bought it.

The product will have to sell itself this time, passed performance is no longer a positive, that sells sight unseen. Even if there are still issues with the Sequel there maybe enough sales in Russia to keep the development solvent long enough to fix them. Personally I think they will have the performance issues fixed, and probably another patch with some fixes for the AI, Commands, and FM etc either before or in conjunction with the Sequels release. I really don't see the the release of the sequel for quite sometime, which should give them plenty of time for another patch, after the performance patch. They would probably want to community beta test fixes for the AI etc before releasing the sequel anyway.
