Friday 2010-10-29 Dev. update and Discussion

I only just bought ROF recently (the ICE edition). I am not allowed to talk about my previous experience with the game, but I will say my opinion has changed and I think that the new version with Eight planes and it's current level of sophistication and smoothness is a fair buy.

I was also not very impressed by the business model either, but have since changed my mind. WWI is not conducive to the add on style that Oleg uses, the only way that they can have continuing revenue for game development is the model they are using, and they are developing and improving the game, and everyone gets the benefit of that.

I'm only talking about ROF on this forum because I feel that it is a complimentary product, not a competitive one, and that comparisons are valid. (I will concede that while I consider the damage model to be superb, a hard crash kind of looks goofy. There are limits as to what can be done with a computer)

I won't comment on this any further.

I wish people would stop quoting Hecke, so I don't have to see his banal and senseless posts. I wish the Ignore function on this forum extended to quotes, so that I can completely eliminate my contact with people that are just too stupid to deal with here. I have to deal with idiots all the time at work and I'd just as soon not waste my free time on them.

Come to think of it I wish I had an ignore button at work.......

Banal and senseless posts? That's exactly what you do all the time.
And that you pick on me permanently just shows that you are the real stupid idiot.

Just an observation but it's interesting to note that generally the folks that don't like RoF really don't like RoF and are strangely vitriolic toward it. Sure it isn't perfect but most of the criticism levelled at RoF tends to be either woefully outdated or inaccurate to begin with. I do admit that I don't like having to buy new planes, and have yet to do so, but I've been spoiled by Oleg and his many freebies. The game is updated regularly and the design team seems determined to stand behind and continually improve the game and also does a good job of communicating with the...err...community. Although WWI air combat isn't really my forte, I look forward to seeing what RoF's future holds.
