I just wanted to say what a good job I feel 777 studios is doing with RoF,in particulat their website design,whicj makes good clear announcements from time to time & show plenty of screenshots of up & coming features.Although I can't say I'm fond of buying new aircraft,at least the store makes it easy to do.It seems like a very professional out fit.
All this and a steadily improving Sim too. RoF hit the market a very flawed Game , but after a year's time it was clear it was in the market to stay. I really wish the folks at Clod can follow 777's example. )

The ROF development definitely had problems at release, but it was closer to being finished than COD and they didn't have to do a major performance rewrite. The COD development has been like a Keystone Cop excesses with alligators everywhere. Once the game engine is done and running smoothly you will probably find that the developers will have more time, to refine their website, and have a better idea on what features they can implement and in what time frame.

Chivas I agree. I'll have a glass of C. Regal in your honor ..

The reason why ROF was better and more finished at release is because 777 is its own developer and distributor.

neoQB was the original developer publisher. Jason didn't come aboard until a year or a year and a half into release. RoF was a jewel in the rough, and many folks had issues with it. I myself never experienced the issues that were common in the beginning. Still, as a whole, it was a better release than CoD's....... sadly.

That said it appears CoD will have further backing and that means a chance to right the ship. I'll support that.

Can anyone explain to me why I should care how CoD was financed?

It can have a bearing on who dictated the release date (eg. Epilepsy filter controversy). No-one is telling you personally, so ignore the posts if you are not interested, others are.

Why should anyone care who dictated the release date? That ship sailed a long time ago.

>>Yes, I asked. So far, no answer. It seems like there should be a reason for an argument that goes on and on and on. But there appears to be none. <<

Big deal.

Do you also go up to complete strangers having a private argument of their own, and demand to know the answer (if there is one) and expect all eyes to instantly turn on you?

Inimitable.
