Enjoying the sim for sure.

Sequel: Pre-purchase, not a chance. Buy it on release day, no way. Buy it if it gets half decent reviews, very likley.

(if it is some sort of MMO with monthly payment system... i won't touch it, not that i expect it to be so)

People never got over the fact the sim was released unfinished. Of course its going to be buggy, what else could it be, until its finished. Unfortunately there are still some issues that hopefully the Sequel will address. That said the improvements should foster the building of more realistic BOB missions, that should be very playable for most users, while we wait for more feature improvements in the Sequel. I'm hoping they release the map SDK before the Sequel so users can start improving the Channel map sooner.

There is still a great need for constructive criticism that the developers can use to change, add, or adjust features in the Sequel. Constant unrelenting whining serves no positive purpose. Even some of the worst whiners, conspiracy theorists, still want the sim to succeed, you have to wonder what the h8ll they're thinking.

Just had a marvellous time online at one of the ATAG servers. Very enjoyable indeed.

I think the last patch fixed up the sim ok. Not great by any means but acceptable. Like many others have said I've gotten my monies worth. Then again if I'd paid $50 to get beaten with a stick every day for the last year and better I'd have gotten my monies worth too so that really isn't saying much. Value, like beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Another thread mentioned perhaps it was time to lay off the development team and move on. Maybe it's time to let go of the whiners theme so many here hold close to their hearts. The "community" is still obviously divided maybe never to be whole again. Nearmiss' less than subtle threats of retaliation for opposing viewpoints help no one.

The name of this thread is a troll title meant to stir up arguing and should be locked.

No, it isn't.

If I wanted to troll, I'd pick a subject that would be far more incendiary, and believe me, I could do that.

So, the fact that after months of not flying the sim because it was indeed not worth it to me, and now it is, and I give my opinion on that, makes it a troll thread?

Have any of you wondered why the old players mostly never ever come here?

Look in the mirror.

Sheesh, sometimes I wonder why I bother coming here myself.

Yes it is unless calling people whiners is a compliment.

It is used to provoke arguing with those who criticize the sim and you are perfectly aware of that.

If you feel that I posted this just to provoke anyone, including yourself, then you are in error.

But, if you want to be provoked, and it sounds to me like you do, then, let me help you out a bit more.

Stuff it.

No one appointed you to be the moral compass of this forum, if you have a beef report the thread.

I really don't care.

It's people like you that are killing this genre.

Enjoy your moment of glory.

I've been firing up CLoD a lot more recently. It's managed to cut into my RoF time too. It IS fun, especially online at the moment. Looking forward to the sequel no end now.
