So what are you doing here if you feel that way?

Bean counting. Originally, I bought the game in hopes that it would become as advertised. Now, it's just about mercy kill.

When I bought the game it cost me $44.99. So, according to my figuring, my money paid for .562375 of a line of code. I think I got ripped off. I should have got more lines than that. Not even a whole line.

"crash/stutter/fps issues that this game has"

Sorry but I can't sympathize....

On my spartan system... I see no stutters or fps issues to speak of in many different missions of various sizes ...I am sure some do...but maybe it's your systems... I guess I might see stutters or fps issues if I were to try a massive mission, the way BOB should be....But those days will probably come and if not...I will spend my time in another "world" and use this one for the fun it presently renders.

Crashes? what Crashes...The only time I see "crashes" (not really a crash, just a dumb launcher error message) are when I exit the Sim and it tells me the launcher has stopped working... yeah no kidding, I would expect that if the game is shutdown...Game is closed by me and I get that message...so what...just a glitch that does not affect play... it matters not.

on another note...I have to say ATAG has some fun things happening on their server.....Maybe some... not necessarily you... should try that instead of spending so much time here whining.... There is some fun to be had... IMHO it is alot more rewarding to fly against humans than it is to fly against AI...Even if I get my backend handed to me... It might be fun shooting some of you cry babies down...

You've had till the cows come home to try to fix it, along with everything else..and still..the solution is just around the corner..three or four days away, and almostttt done.

Yet..here we sit, with the same old excuses which have worn thin, and fans lining up to say "wow..thanks for all this "new" news, which is nothing more than old news. I'm amazed with all those thousands of lines of codes they apparently didn't experience any crashes prior to release..only after, and that they had no FPS problems before we purchased the finished product. I suspect a gremlin was introduced after the release of the game, it's not the developers fault.

Whew! You're like... the second one, who, like me, doesn't like getting lied to and decieved! Also, you got the modus operandi, yay!
Earlier, it was the thing with full-screen, which was "almost" ready for quite a while - and even earlier, when everything was thrashed, we got lovely pictures from the staff ^-^

I believe that if I hadn't asserted that they don't even have a patch for now, we wouldn't even have it yet - I just wonder what the devs do all the time all day. I mean, every beginner programmer could write down a fix for the Me-109 prop pitch reversal (or the Spit Mixture lever one...) in less than 10 minutes. NO MATTER how many hundred thousand lines the code has or how badly files/classes are set up and sorted (well, that would matter... but you had to get it really badly). And CTRL+F (or find or grep or...) is everybody's friend, too.

At least we're able to witness the most spectacular failures of job choice (and hiring practice, for that matter) in recent history.

So Mad Blaster, your admitting to the community that your sole reason for for posting here is to do your best to kill off the sim as quickly as you can????

That is really sad!

I truely hope I have miss read your statement.

You are a complete Tool! Translate that anyway you like. Oh and count the single digit I am holding up at you. Yeah not mature but who cares.

I have over 1600 hours clocked up playing this game since release and that does not count the houndreds of hours coding missions for fun and the community that like to play.

Since I have more than double my hours playing this game then any other game I have on steam I would say I am getting value for money and I paid $110 for the full set with the nice cloth map.



And now I wait for Phat to Slap me on the hand. ... Sorry Admin

I guess you're a bean counter too. It's good you are keeping track. We all want to know.

[MadBlaster]

I wonder why my post to Skoshi "vanished"? I guess the line about "man gots to know his limitations"...too much.

[MadBlaster]

Oh, my retype post rate = $81 per line.
