Thursday Update, April 19, 2012

[philip.ed]

I have sat back and watched this thread go down the drain, and I think I will post my views. Frankly it's the cause of one person, who has trolled in here and disrupted and harassed one user (just as he does in every topic).

I'm sorry to write this in bold, but hopefully a moderator will notice.

Tree posted a simple question in here to B6.

David Hayward responds. He has nothing positive to add to the topic, nothing constructive to say. His posts are merely to upset and provoke a reaction.
Oh, he says he's trying to help the devs with suggestions Tree should see the code? Laughable. It's bullying masquerading as snide vindictiveness.

And it's never-ending. Every time Tree posts, he's harassed; and when a user suggests a scheme to get him to shut-up, David agrees (which, incidentally, overturns any suggestion from David that he was posting to help the development process).

I don't care what it is Tree is posting, it doesn't condone David's constant responses. If it was so bad a moderator would step in


Back on topic, thanks for the update B6. I hope you get through it: it's clear to see that a lot of work is being done on this product.

Thank you, Tree, for a good laugh

If you still don't understand why the product was released unfinished, then there is no point in any further discussion.

Not too sure about that. Devs say BoM is based on CoD engine, they want to sell BoM. Even among the CoD zelots (never mind the 'normal' simming community) who will jump in on BoM without some tangible proof the basic engine underneath it works ? Add to that the fact BoM is almost entirely fought over land, frequently at low level, nah, somebody will be frothing at the mouth over the prospect of that payday slipping away.

Anyway, looks like feeding time at the zoo is upon us, will leave you all to it and see whats what next week.

No, actually Oleg just said: It will be an unfinished game with current top end hardware being unable to handle it.
Pretty much spot on, don't you think?
