I agree, but I really don't think they knew what was going to happen, and what they could say about it. I know if I worked for the development that took this long to produce a revenue stream, I would be surprised everyday I showed up to work that the development wasn't shut down. I'm sure many people have, but I certainly wouldn't want to work every day under that kind of pressure .
That said I think the development has turned a corner with the stability patch, and seem to have some assurances of financial support atleast until the Sequel's release. Hence the appearance of Luthier.

You guys talking about how they don't work weekends forgot about this quote, yeah?

Pretty standard for 1C lately. Over-promise, under-deliver.

Do we have to wait months for the answers like we're still waiting for the freaking README?

I really would have thought that the result of Luthier offering to answer questions after not being around for a few months would have been predictable.

That's not to underestimate the amount of time needed to wade through those 15 or whatever pages and write up answers...but that then leads to 'what could they say about it?', and that's simple really - "sorry guys, this is going to take a little time. We'll get back to you next week".

It's really a matter of common courtesy and common sense on this one.

I'm almost (but not quite ) past caring to be honest, but it's just really crap public relations. They just never seem to learn.

I keep trying to give them the benefit of the doubt and hold in there, but they keep pointing that shotgun at their own feet and pulling the trigger.

Also, I'm not looking for apologies or whinging about paying £50 for the collector's edition or threatening not to buy the sequel (who am I kidding?) - I would just like them - for once - to do what they say they are going to do dammit! Especially on something that Luthier set up himself without any need or prompting from anyone else!!!!!

And yes, I have had a few 'ales'

To be fair there were a lot of questions, we could of helped Luthier by asking the question and then giving a multi choice answer. Something like this:

Question: Will SLI ever work?

1. Maybe No
2. Maybe Yes
3. Maybe not now but maybe not in BOM
4. It is our highest and lowest priority
5. Brown

Ken, you have to be fizzin joking. Haven't you seen enough of these threads already?

What we've got, we've got. What we're going to get is anybody's guess.

All contributors to this thread should get online and kill some Hun. It doesn't really matter whether it's in Cliffs of Dover or Rise of Flight. Just stop posting shite on the forums, fly some aeroplanes and have some fun.

Alternatively, kill some Tommies. I don't bloody care. Just play the game (s).

Hic.....

Has B6 said anything by way of explanation? He seems to have gone to ground on the subject too.

Agree. It makes it seem like they don't care whether or not they deliver a quality product. They just want to string you along and promise that if you pay another 60 bucks it'll be fixed in the sequel.

OOooohhh yes. I'm sure you cannot possibly be wrong.

They released it. It was awful. They patched it to a new version, v1.05.

Since then, they've released a series of beta patches, all of which were worse.

No official version since when? Last November? Which version would that be then? Oh, yes...the same version they released last November.

Tum te tum te tummmmm.................

BlackSix has replied to Luthiers post regarding his replies, the answer was that they had over 150 questions from two forums and this was going to take a little longer to give answers to.

Now where are the priorities to go?

1= get the patch ready for final release.

2= sort out over 150 questions to give answers to (probably many of which have already been answered before)
