If you can pull off say,,,,, 15 calls a day , per person, to both,,,,, it may make a difference. I watched ps2 battlefield(modern combat) fans, clog EA's phone lines so bad that EA patched a 4 year old game just for those fans ! They fixed all the glitches and everything. It was the most amazing case of NAGGING by fans of a game,, that I have ever seen in 30 years of gaming ! Its something I will never forget Ever. @Anton,, You are a very understanding person. You have stated this same fact, time and time again on this forum, Yet you still took the time to answer this thread. I salute you Sir ! SINCERLY, DESODE

Thanks for all the posts Anton. Good to hear from you about this, I know you've got to maintain a relationship with the publishers and you dont want to be seen playing the blame game so I understand why you havent said this a week ago.
I've seen this type of situation before on the more "cult" games where the creators make a load of really cool DLC and updates then pass it to the publishers and....nothing. If this was on PC it'd be out the door in no time as it costs next to nothing to implement but its not its a console title and they're done a little different. Updates/patches and DLC for console games cost money, not just to make (which Gaigin have just sucked up off their own bat) but also to release onto the consoles (both, plural not just "M$". Oh how I hate that BTW), and thats paid for by the publisher. I'd love more content and I know you guys would too but can you imagine the conversation with the bean counters trying to get this stuff released once the games out? 505/1C are compaies after all and not big ones at that so they need to make money to survive. Harsh but true. My point is (I have one?) that its a small community here and, realistically speaking, few people will benefit from this and the publishers will take that into account when they decide if they want to write a big cheque to Sony & Microsoft to get the ball rolling on this. We may never see it. Thanks for putting the effort in either way Anton, its much appreciated from us BoP players.

Got a lot of time on my hands these days so I could b on their a$$es 24/7 lol... just need a phone number here (i'll try n go look for that right away). But you sir are absolutly right. More often than not, ppl choose the statu quo and dont do anything thinking a phone call or email (even good old fashion mail) prob wont change things. But clogging phones lines or mailbox of a company/org/political partie/... does work (much better than spewing venom in forums anyways) as its much harder to ignore and can get aggravating at some point, when volume is big enough. And u def dont need 1000 ppl to b annoying, well not when i'm around anyways  I think a good habit evryone in here should try: evrytime your in mp game lobby waiting, just pick up the phone and give'em a quick call, nothing offensive... something along the lines of "Hi guys its me again, just wanted to know if this patch is coming out already... Ok then thanks. Have a nice day!"... instead of staring in empty space waiting for players to join (i tend to do that alot lol) or jumping in the forum right away dissing at the poor dev who, at this point cannot do anything about the issue, and is only showing up with good intentions here. Anyways time 2 do something here ppl cause if this patch is never relased, it would make for a game with huge potential remaining an average attemp at a flight sim. Would really b a shame imo.

Really sucks but I do know that especially with DLC on consoles it's a major pain in the arse to get released quickly. If this were PC, no biggie, the developer could put it up just as easy. Problem is with Microsoft and Sony, they have pretty strict guidelines in regards to approving content on their platforms. One stupid misprint, etc, the candidate release is rejected and you have to fix the issue. Then resubmit and your at the back of the line again.
Since Anton hasn't said otherwise, it appears the DLC is just waiting to get moved up in the que for approval. This could be a month or even longer unfortunately....who knows.

Let me just say that although I can't wait for the patch and additional cockpits, etc, this game is far from "dying". I play it constantly. I'm always trying to find people to get sim matches started, and when we get one going it's usually insanely fun. None of these problems seriously destroy the gameplay. If they were fixed, it would be better, but the game isn't a total wash because of them.
Why bother assaulting the devs on the forum? Offering criticism is one thing, but threatening to "trade the game back in" or not buy it in the first place is really childish. Or just spending time ranting at the devs, what's the point? I dunno. I suppose I'm doing the same thing, but only at the ranters...I just don't think it's constructive to tear people apart, especially since it's not even their fault. I know I'm late to the party on this thread but I thought I'd say my piece. See you in the game...so that I may own you and make you realize the errors of your ways. Messerschmitt, what-WHAT!!!??!

Too bad
They really blew it with the terrible multiplayer interface for PSN. Call of duty has a great system they could have modeled it on. BOP was the reason I bought a PS3 last year.( a bit of a let down to say the least) Lets hope it can be fixed. I can't get an MP game so I don't really try anymore. The single player just doesn't cut it. I guess the positive thing is that I don't spend as much time gaming right now.
