Why so little interaction with the community?

It's a downward spiral now which may even have started the instant the game was released in such a poor state.

A lot of the "whiners" really really want a fixed game but make their feelings known. The developers don't respond, maybe because of language issues, lack of common sense or fear of another backlash, so they get it in the neck for not responding. When there is a response it is often incomplete, wildly optimistic or just false (for the same reasons as above) and so the whole cycle takes a downwards lurch.

What is really needed is an amnesty on the part of the forum members combined with a regular update or dialogue from the developers. In the past I've advocated a simple, locked, update thread even if it is just to report that they're still working on something. Really that won't happen now because the only update will be that the latest patch will be made official sometime, then wait for the sequel whatever format that is to take given that it hasn't been announced yet...

Lots of whining about very little then. I'm a whiner yet I'll buy the sequel if only because I live in hope that I'll get to fly the BoB without too much heartache.
