The Crystal Ball

[icarus]

Is there going to be a patch for CoD before BoM is released?

[robtek]

What are you trying to do?

The answer was posted here already by luthier. Yes.

Quite logical, as the sequel is still not officially announced.

Can you please provide some relevant information on the status of the patch in this Friday update, as follows:

1. How the work is progressing?

2. What mile stones ( if any ) have been achieved so far?

3. What the team is actually working on now that the graphics (as Luthier mentioned earlier) are virtually finished by now?

4. What betterment we will actually get after the patch... ae: list of fixes?

5. Relevant screen shots showing frame rates ( not anly upper but low and average ) and various improvements to the visuals (if any)

6. Approximate time scale for release of the BETA? (not the ready when is ready... please)

S!

I would settle with a less long list. Maybe a few highlights of what was found and corrected. Patch release, well when ready

I like many others are infuriated at the absolute rort we have been victim of, having paid good money for a substandard product. Even worse, to add to this frustration, efforts are now going off on a tangent to develop ridiculous things like controllable AA and future expansion packs ? Outright theft!

I do not wish to put blame on anyone but would rather just please like to have this mess fixed as soon as possible; that is to say, fix this unfinished product and not focus on things that are not ready to be added yet.

Anyway, in short- when is the next patch coming out please? Everyone knows we need AI fixed immediately at number 1, closely followed by many other glaringly obvious shortcomings. This game is not fit to play. When can we expect something please? It has been a long time since version 1.05 now.

People seem to think next week. I'll believe it when I see it....

If that's the case- awesome. I will wait. Where did you get that from?

I think its more your fault for not doing your due diligence before buying the product. Kidding aside, I'm sure the developer is thankful for our investment in COD, which has made it possible for the sim to be finished instead of canceled.

The patch is much closer, and should make the sim much more playable on average systems. No much word yet on what improvements has been made on the FM, DM, AI, Commands, etc, although I'm quite sure the people working on those features didn't stop to watch the one guy working on ground vehicles. You should see many new features, and improvements to the FM, DM, AI, Commands, Graphics thru the life of the series.

Quote from BS, but doesn't say when it will be released, but doesn't sound like it will be too much longer.

"Graphics-wise, we’re dealing with a last-minute issue as we speak. We rather unexpectedly found a problem with our aircraft decals, i.e. the code that places crosses and roundels and chevrons etc on top of the aircraft paintscheme. The code is being rewritten, the work should be finished in about 2 days. Once it’s done we can take much more accurate benchmarks. We’ll post then when we have them."

S!

So basically at least a week...no wait, stop the press...2 WEEKS! Anyways really good news the patch is getting closer to beta/release. Add to that the mentioned FM/DM adjustments and oh boy can we finally enjoy a lot more
