I can understand the problem with the system requirements but aside from that you make no sense.
If you are an early adopter live with the damn consequences. Also try to go out and experience life. This game is still supported and does get patches - unlike a freaking ton of other broken useless games I own.
I also don't like the flying through trees thing. But whatever. No one promised we'd collide with them. Why don't you buy a DCS game and a microscope so you can even SPOT a damn tree. This game looks stunning and works okay overall. There's no better sim out there and if you want one just go and make one. I'll even buy it 
No one does anything for free. Even the HSFX people don't. They do it because THEY want a better game and not because WE want a better game. That's how economy started. People specialized because THEY wanted something but also didn't want to starve just because they were good smiths but sucked at farming. Please don't be so naive as to believe that people do stuff for free... |
Wow, Madfish, sounds like you got bit by life pretty bad.
I've not downloaded the HSFX mod, but I wasn't aware that there was a fee charged. Plus, you're very welcome to fly on the ATAG server at no charge -- ie. FREE. (Sure, someone will point out that we accept donations to help defray server costs, but that is strictly voluntary. The only "payment" we require is that everyone have a good time.) We're also indebted to the guys behind the scenes that maintain the server, design, test, and implement the missions, and do the stats for us......all for FREE.
At 58 years of age I'm no kid, and like most here have lived life's ups and downs (lots of THOSE). Yes, there are certainly many people out there who are purely "what's in it for me" -- no question. But I share Woodstock's conviction that there are many talented individuals within our own 1C Forum community that would gladly undertake CoD mods and improvements, given the necessary SDK tools, and charge not one penny in return.
