Friday June 17 Update – Next Patch Info

[jg27_mc]

Thanks for the feedback.

One thing bothering me though... Counting the average numbers of pilots flying during the weekends, I am a little bit concerned about all the online driven agenda by MG.

Don't get me wrong any improvements in the software are welcome, I am one of the onliners that is having trouble. But judging the numbers, it seems that there´s far more people enjoying the game offline. Otherwise I think It would be fair to say that we should see at least 80+ pilots during prime-times over the weekends.

At this point, it seems that the majority of customers to satisfy (offline ones) are being forgotten... What do you guys think?

Regards.

Disheartening really, but after people become comfortable in the game, and their respective a/c, I'm sure the numbers will pick up.

Indeed... Guess the fact that the simulation still not been officially launched in the US has it's weight. Here in Europe I never seen more than + - 45 pilots distributed for the few servers existent... However servers become empty in a blink, due to those awful steam disconnects.

I mean... How many copies of CloD were sold till now??? And how many of those, that bought the game, are flying online? 1% to 5%?

Being that said, I expect that MG start paying more attention (in the future) to aspects like enhance/increase the content, include a dynamic campaign or whatever they can add to the "package" to make the offline experience more rich.

That is what i meant and i think Zorin didnt understood me.

I for myself thinking most sim pilots here are flying offline like me. There is a good reason fot it.

First of all i want a game wich was in the beta patch phase. It was wonderful to fly, nearly everything set to HIGH but the new patch 14550 destroyed everything for me.

When those bugs are ironed out and i am possible to fly the aircraft with full CEM (i do only flying with CEM), hopefully handling it perfectly, then i will join online servers too. But until it isnt i will not joining servers. That is only my point of view.

It seems that development is concentrated mostly on MP. Hopefully i am wrong because i love this sim and i enjoyed it. It doesn t matter for me to wait four more days but i would like to see that SP is supported the same way as MP.

As i said thats my point if view, maybe wrong.

Cheers

PS: Sorry Luthier i forgot to thank you for the new update!!!! Looking forward on Tuesday with SP improvements too.

Iam pretty sure that a lot more People would be seen online if the game would be supported by Hyperlobby, where we would have a general chat to invite people to self made campaigns and coops! And there we have the other major problem with this game, no working coops, coop campaigns in multiplayer possible! The sound bug is a big Problem too!


@desastersoft You hit the nail on its head with your post!!!!!

I have to agree, the biggest annoyance with online play at the moment as I see it is the lack of sound, spending time fixing all the other online issues are pointless unless the sound issue is fixed, lets be honest who whould fly on line with no sound. Its my understanding that the sound issues are months away from a fix, so this current proposed patch really helps very few people, maybe if luthier visited here more often he would get a clearer picture of what we want fixing.

First of all thank you Luthier for the update looking forward to the beta-patch for the beta version of CloD. Back to the quote above, I also feel the single player part of the game is being neglected. It's just my opinion because I'm a 92% offline player. For the moment there's no reason for me to boot up the game, nothing that draws me in. As I've said before, making every mission for myself is very tiring and unrewarding. I haven't given up hope in the game but I just don't care so much any more, at least the multiplayer crowd will have a fully functioning game soon, good for them. I don't have any numbers but I guess MG are prioritizing MP because more people are playing online? I'll check out the game again when there is some form of campaign system with all the stuff that goes with it, not holding my breath though .
