When they fix what they already have and it doesn't crash after 30 mins EVERY time i play il have more faith in them pulling off a combined arms war.
I cant wait to drive into enemy territory with out being taken out by those P47s because i was driving through the trees

Well, i've got a good track record so far. I only ever advocated two inter-connected features thus far (CEM and systems mamagement, along with clickpits as an interface to manage that for people without a HOTAS set) that met a lot of resistance early on and now almost everyone likes it.
My fiction sure beats other people's fiction i'd say

We are completely rewriting collision and landing gear, while also making other elements of the flight model more complete and precise. Control surface behavior and reaction has been significantly improved. Refined transverse velocity calculations in relation to aircraft performance. Made it possible to calculate different transverse velocity at different points along the wing. Improved pylon and loadout FM calculations. Added many new features to allow FM calculation needed in future sequels. Many of these changes have also entailed completely rewriting existing code.
And this is by no means a complete list!
QUOTE FROM FRIDAY 26 UPDATE from Black Six
Most of us are busy preparing the beta version of the upcoming patch. We did make a whole lot of FPS benchmarking, and the great news is, it’s all in line with the previously announced numbers. The performance increase is very significant.
I gues at the moment the preperation for the Beta patch would include a write up of bug fixes,FM changes & GUI if any .It appears from what Black Six has said that a lot of the team are presently involved in this .

...ie, the things we all want as a priority are already well on the road to getting finally fixed.
Not to mention that the "WTH?! Tanks?!" outcries prevent many from noticing the obvious:
a) That the much-maligned graphics performance finally seems up to par. No slowdowns during explosions or display of particle effects at the (comparatively to air combat) extremely close ranges depicted during the ground combat demo
b) That the sounds seem to be getting better and better.
So, in others words
