Sorry but I just CANNOT imagine the devs have missed those things.

If I were a developer of a game, and a month before release I would find a topic like this, my response would be: "So?"

Rodolpho, there are TWENTY-TWO people working on this sim and they have been doing so for years. Do you really think you have spotted those things and they have not? Ever heard of the word "arrogance"?

I think it arrogance speaking from the people who accuse him of "whining"!!!
These are documented flaws, correctly delivered.
And yes, there are ONLY 22 people working on this huge project.
If ALL those faults are already known -> fine, nothing lost, but if only 1 of those faults has been missed by the team -> honor to him!

I don't agree. If you're betatesting a product, devs are asking you for every bug or glitch you can find.

But we have no insight in the status of the product, we are outsiders. Even if we buy the product we will never know certain aspects of how this or any company runs it's business.
We don't know what build this is, even if the name suggests it's recent. There is only one thing we know for sure, and that the version we saw on the screen isn't finished. These films were uploaded by someone visiting an event, like the other guy probably without Oleg's or Luthier's consent. And if I were Oleg, I wouldn't risk installing my latest build there.

If Oleg wanted us to be involved in every aspect of the development, including which builds are being shown or tested where, we would have known.

I know the motive was pure helpfulness, that's great! And Rodolphe's knowledge and eye for detail are really impressive! But I feel that this time it misses the target.

Nitpicking a beta.

Amazing.

Go outside and get a breath of fresh air son.

You need it.

That's the point. You don't know the build and if those bugs are already solved.
Just a waste of time imo.
And I'm sure that things like missing wire and spring are not the most important for devs atm.

Sorry, but I think posting "bugs" you see on someone else's youtube posting of an unknown beta version is just in poor taste. Very poor taste. And that is as nice as I can say that.

Looking forward to your CONSTRUCTIVE threads once the game goes live where you can post bugs from the released version on your own system.

Another thread gone down the toilet. I sure hope things change after release around here. I mean c'mon.... If you don't agree with the guy than why flame him? Save yourself the time and move on. Maybe, just maybe this is an issue that will be brought to light. Honestly none of you know for sure, so give him some space.

Maybe you're right Tacoma, but if this was my product and my forum, I'd appreciate it if someone emailed me first with telling he found these films, and he'd ask if they are relevant.
Imagine if someone made us believe (we'd be fools) these films are from the final, the amount of upheaval it would've created. And more important: negative responses from the games media and as a result, poor sales. The release date is very soon and a traveling idea that the game would be released riddled with bugs is a potential nightmare for them - remember the reaction to the leaked beta movies. But maybe I'm a bit too negative myself.

Well i have to say, you make sense. I do agree with you there, but I was just sticking up him. I could just see a lynching about to happen lol But whats new i guess...

Dear god....what sad gits you are nit-picking Betas

Speechless really.

Someone actually posts an insightful post pointing out mistake he found and you guys are flaming him?

I guess the only discussion we are allowed to have on these boards is about distant aircraft pixel size and the colour of the grass.

Don't mind these sperglords, I'm sure Oleg appreciates someone who knows how to bring to attention perceived mistakes.

p.s. "nitpicking a beta" . . . Ideally you're supposed to point out mistakes before the game ships. Oleg has two options, fix them or ignore them. I'm sure he's a big enough boy to make his own decisions without your guys "protecting" him.
