I get what you are saying but answer this question:

Do you want to live in a future where game developers can get away with selling unfinished products to customers safe in the knowledge that they will just stop whinging and go away?

The more likely scenario is that you will end up in a future of Modern Warfare 26 (Now with bushes a slightly different shade of green! Bullets as DLC for £25!).... or no game industry at all.

If CloD isn't fixed soon then 1C, as a company, will seriously start to feel the pain... I'm not the only one who is now avoiding anything with the 1C logo on it! Muck spreads and tends to stick too...

I think, because we paid for it. If you are glad giving your money for nothing, good for you.

And I think that ALL we are posting here wants the game works fine and become in the best simulator in history, but no for that we will not complain when things do not go as they promised.

I paid for Wings of Puke. It sucked. I removed it from my computer. I didn't spend the next year complaining on their forum. I have some dignity.

However, did it work as it said on the box, or was it a WIP and (a public/open) beta for a future game?

Do you really think the whingeing on this forum is actually doing anything usefull? it just fills the forum with sensless rubbish and makes it an unpleasant place for everyone, I can tell you that what we have with 1C is one of the only devfelopers still bothered to make anything resembling a flight simulator and it is peoples 'impatience' and sense of entitlement that forces the gaming industry down the path of console games and we will just end up with 'grand theft aero'

It sucked so bad that I didn't play it long enough to find all the annoying bugs.

LOL at 'Grand Theft Aero'

I do understand where you are coming from but, if nothing else, this forum can act as a warning to other curious people who consider spending money on Cliffs of Dover... meanwhile they can then hop over to the 1946 forum and be enticed by the best simulator to ever grace the market.

As I have said elsewhere... I WANT this to succeed, not only so I get my money's worth but, as you rightly point out, for the sake of the simming hobby itself but...

...Release a faulty product and then irritate the community with badly handled PR and reap the whirlwind!

The best that could come out of this is everyone gets a learning experience.
