Default Criticize game = instant closed/deleted thread

I expressed my opinion of the demo a few days and my thread was instantly locked, and received message from host basically telling me to shut up.
Here is message:

Difference between a personal choice and a thread

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Look, if you don't want to buy Birds of Prey then fine. There is no need to start a thread about you not wanting it. If you don't like it, simply don't buy it.

I have played demo and here are problems I found:

Crash/Belly landings (need I say more)
Sim Mode (you can still "remove" cockpit view to a full screen HUD)
Sim Mode (fly in straight line, slow down, takes the FW "FOREVER" to shoot you down)
Wing gets blown off, camera pans out for a "theateratical" view of plane crash to the ground.

Look, what ever happen to starting your own engine, and takin-off the runway which brings be to my next problem:

If you land in the demo, come to a stop and then punch it for a take off, you can take off in like only 10 feet.... Hmmmm.... Red Barronish?

Long story short this game is a fail.

Also, this guy tried to express his opinion and got slammed by other members/Host. His opinion is very valid and I agree with him 100%!

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=8974

Also note, his thread was locked so people like me could not resond and instead have to start there own thread to back him.

This game has fallen well short of the PC version, in fact, it's not fair to even compare the two.

Please be responsible adults when/if responding to this thread. Do not slam me like you did the guy above. I would hate to start my own thread on #1 Google sponsored link in regards to this game!

Also, there should be a thread here where many people "like me" can express how bad this game sucks!

Seriously?

By the way, you can belly land. I did it for fun for about an hour last night.

You're angry because you have the option to use a virtual cockpit in sim mode? Really? It's a single player demo... So you're only affecting yourself if you use it. So if it bothers you then simply do not lose it.

The FW's are not too aggressive in the demo I admit, but they CAN shoot you down. I've found that out a good many times.

It sounds like yiou just didn't really play the demo much at all, and are being extremely quick to pass judgment. No other console flight sim touches this. This is the game that I thought would never come to a console.

Feel free to Blogspot your own horrible misjudgments all you want.
You're post will never be #1 on Goggle or whatever you're threatening. Reason being: You don't write well enough for people to take you seriously, you sound like a whiner, and no one really cares what you say.

By the way, welcome to the Official 1C forums. This is where we share our love for the many titles titles they have developed, and share advice about those games.

Goodbye.

Look, I don't think anyone will argue with you that this game isn't a PC version of IL2. It is a whole heck of a lot better than anything else that has come out on the consoles in the past! I think it is a first and huge step for sims on consoles.

Plus once the full game comes out, I think that the MP dogfighting is going to be a blast!

Try to belly land a badly damaged plane, no matter how soft you land, it will not happen. Yes this game is the best sim for console because it is the ONLY sim for console. Have you played the PC version? If so, then you should know that the console version doesnt compare! They left out way to many details! I played the demo for many hours my friend and was very dissapointed. Aslo, as for as Google's "sponsored" #1 top page ranking, anybody can advertisie there its called PPC (pay per click). And you AINT got to write well to be on top! Advice for the game? It needs to be more like the PC version.

Yes, I used thrustmaster. I was happy jumping up and down when I heard it was coming to console so I orderd and played with thrustmaster. I agree it is the best sim for console. I guess I've been spoiled by the PC version.

Well, I don't know what to say. I have played the PC version, I've had it for many years now. I have stopped PC gaming though as I don't have much time to stay ontop of PC hardware, updates, etc.

I wasn't expecting Bird's of Prey to be like the PC version at all. If this game was just like the PC version you'd probably see maybe 10 people online! It just wouldn't appeal to the console masses.

Yes and succeeded - multiple times.

BTW doesn't has an apostrophe
dissapointed is spelt disappointed
Aslo is spelt Also
and advertisie is spelt advertise

Think about this... If the console version of game were identical to the PC version, it would be way cheaper to buy a PS3/XBOX and play it that way. Little/No lag, can be played on your 56inch plasma, graphics would be the same for everyone (ie., I had to turn down quality on my computer to play PC version), would appeal to the older generation with proper advertising, would also appeal to the younger generation (in my opinion).

Sales would go up!

Got to run into town, I'll check other comments in a few hours.
