He definitively isn't the minority!
He belongs imho to the quiet majority of more "mature" forum members who have the patience and know from past experience what to expect from OM.
This sim isn't ready, yet.
But it will be -> the future is bright.
Even with all the bugs, for me this sim has degraded IL2-1946 to arcade, it is just no fun anymore.
I've tried RoF and have almost all planes, really no fun for me! Only furballs online -> not my kind of flying.
And jets, i can really do without them, the last interesting scenario was vietnam and there is no actual sim for those planes.

OP +100. The silent majority, those of us who saw Forgotten Battles blossom into 1946 have the maturity and insight to understand greatness doesn't happen overnight it takes time and perseverance. Luthier will deliver and I don't have any doubt, this isn't just one game it's the new engine that'll support 10-15 years of simming, they're not gonna walk away.

I see that there's many from the Instant Gratification-crowd that I'm used to dealing with in MMO's here. True, CoD wasn't released in a stellar shape. I'll ive you that. I'll also give you the point on the sim being unplayable for many, and that there's still bugs, issues and the like.

Get over it. You've bought the game that you've waited 8+ years on. You can wait a few weeks/months more for the issues to be solved. So you spent $50 (or €50 in my case) on a product that turned out less than stellar, but one that has a bright future ahead of it. Surely you can see this? Or are you too blind?

1C deserves praise for actually being on the ball when it comes to patches etc. Don't know about you, but for me there's been leaps and bounds in both playability and performance over the last few weeks, and that's more than enough to offset any ire I might have had due to the state of the game at launch. Then again, it might be extensive playing of MMO's that have taught me to have patience when it comes to any piece of software out there, regardless of type.
