Believe me: telling the full truth to the customers, and a path forward to clear the issues, is less painful than letting them discover it by themselves, or learn it from frustrated ex-employees. Take action, please!

... and couldn't agree more. common sense and crystal clear feeling about overall stakes.

C'mon Luthier, be strong.

Honestly, who cares what happened behind the scenes?
Is it reasonable to be upset that the game released is missing a number of features advertised And/or buggy?
Absolutely.
Why that was the case is an perhaps an interesting topic for speculation but I don't see how we have any right to know nor does the dev have an obligation to inform us about all the difficult decisions and troubles they may or may not have had.

The dev has an obligation to fix the problems And deliver on its advertised features in a timely manner it doesn't have to tell you what caused the problems.

Look at Silent Hunter 5. One crapy patch and thats all.

And COD? 3 patches in 3 weeks. I really like this team trying everything to make us feel happy.

Let the devs concentrate on the game. There is no need to waste time on dirty laundry.

Honest Communication is all I want, no fibs to hold back the whining it always fails,

Its like telling a girl you like that you love her so you dont hurt her feelings, in the long run she is hurt more because she finds out its all been a lie.

This coummunity is a big rosie cheeked chubby girl Luthier

I am not interested in recrimination, nor i am interested in exuses, i am only interested in solutions.

And again a complete waste of time thread in this forum.

I'd rather have a statement from Luthier what they are currently working on

Trees are a graphical feature which can be turned off. Hence for the sake of online gameplay and mission building they cannot have hitboxes.

Nobody cares.

Let's try again: we need an honest statement re. the current status of development, missing features and their status, and the plan to correct things so to have something similar to the advertised product. Simple.

Car makers, Intel and home appliance makers have learned long ago to communicate publicly the defects of their products and offer either a compensation or a fix. The position "do not disturb the driver" is simply not acceptable for paying customers.

Cheers,

Those of you expecting the devs of this game to provide detailed information for every aspect of this game are living in a fantasy. No company is ever going to do anything like that.
