Those of us who post here, myself included, are the tiniest minority of players.
Most of my Pig buddies have truly given up on the sim. They all see the potential here, but the majority think it will never be fixed, nor will there be a sequel. Most think that 1C will shortly pull the plug as the funding is certainly not infinite.
I don't agree, but lots of people on the outside now feel this way.
I hope Luthier and team prove them wrong, and moreover, I hope they can do so quickly, as the clock is ticking on peoples patience.

This is pretty much my feeling. From my Sqn (Tangmere Pilots), most of us got the collector's edition on the day of release. For one crazy day, many of us even posted pics of ourselves on our forum proudly holding our newly delivered boxes. Feels a bit embarrassing now. But I'm with you, El, a lonely voice among the sarcastic comments among my sqn-mates, hoping Luthier will prove me right.
(We do occasionally get together to go on the ATAG server for an hour - although our 3-times-a-week-il2 schedule makes this infrequent at the moment, because many of us totally get the potential (and I love flying the planes). But our basic inability to get our own server going reliably (and we're not Noobs to this stuff) means we'll never do it regularly until we can do something as basic as throwing up a coop (COOP!!!) server and flying off together to fight something!)
My fingers also remain crossed, though.
