A final message from Luthier

No I dont fly ROF, I purchased it to support it but the WW1 scenario is not my thing, Battle of Britain is my thing, but the lack of Coop's / online wars killed it for me and my squadron and many other squadrons.

Bottom line is that Luthier failed to listen to his customers, netcode was never fixed, cries for Coop's were dismissed. But most of all he missed the very most important feature that any flight sim should have and that is 'Immersion'. The Atag server is/was great but because of netcode issues we couldn't even use the default stock skins, Luthier shot himself in the foot and I hope that he learns the valuable lesson that 'your customer is always right', if they ask for more communication then give it to them, and never ever ever tell them lies.

Clod is great for making movies but other than that its a dead duck, very sad but it wasn't ruined by any of us here fans and whiners alike, it was ruined by the dev's.

I agree, the Immersion was a load of crap.

Actually it's the result of rather poor management, and that begun under Oleg.
Does that mean Oleg and/or Luthier are incompetent? ? No! Not at all, both are specialists in their field.
The funny thing is, a project manger doesn't have to be that deep into the matter, in fact that knowledge can be your worst enemy as you get sidetracked by problems which are not yours.

It's not like you haven't voiced your opinion ad nauseum on the forum. This isn't the place. Zip it pin head. it's a topic to say good bye and if so inclined to thank Luthier for his efforts. You don't have to like how it worked out, but show a little respect.

EDIT:Same goes for other who feel the need for one last pot shot. Let it go.
