Everybody here, in this forum is a fanboy, simple as that. It's just that some of the people here - a vocal minority - have a hard time accepting that others have opinions and preferences that differs from their own therefor feel the need to always "attack" someone who speaks freely from his own thoughts. I would not be surprised if these very same people are just as intolerant in real life, unfortunately. I appreciate and accept it totally when people say that their glass is half full so why can't I get the same respect back with my opinions?

As soon as someone expresses themselves with an opinion or a critique that differs from the "blind deaf and mute" one of the "terriers of intolerance" comes rushing along tearing the discussion apart. It's not about being a fanboy or not, it's about respecting each others opinions/thoughts no matter how much they differ from your own. If you know who said the following then you might know what I'm talking about:

"I disagree strongly with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

But of course you can say what you want, it is the way you say it thats wrong!

Just here, in the quoted post, you are again very free with slights against the so called fanboys.

And no, not everybody in this forum is a fanboy or even a fan of CoD, everybody is interested in CoD, thats the only common ground.

Imo, a fan or fanboy supports his object of interest by praising it but also pointing out flaws to the devs.

That is the difference, there are some people here more interested to point out the flaws to the world in general and this forum in special.

The flaws are posted again and again, played like a ball from one likely minded poster to the other, fulfilling no other interest than to add to the post-count and to appear interesting.

That is the stuff i, and many others, are resenting.

To implement the fanboys were deaf, blind and mute toward CoD's flaws is a slight, as the name calling "terriers of intolerance" is.

Your opinions and thoughts are respected, though not the way you post them.

Weell, as those remarks are my opinion, they shurely do, for me.

Btw, have you seen how many claims were proved in this thread?

[JG27CaptStubing]

What an incredible Yawn Fest! Everyone trying to figure out what is happening and some people literally fabricating features to make themselves feel better about the situation... Bottom line is you can only keep a team together so long patching and such before MONEY needs to be made. That ship has sailed a long time ago and now that the product is $12 bucks is very telling.

Like everyone I was looking forward to this title. Too bad it has yet to be delivered.

Sure sure we have a bunch of patches but until some of major items IE Sound Graphics Engine etc are finished this product will remain very limited.

Just one..

Dynamic Weather..

From a interview with Oleg back in 2009.. And as someone pointed out, 1C stated before the release of CoD (some 2 years later 2011) dynamic weather was not going to be in the inital release.. So, even that 'one' does not really belong on the list. Speaks volumes IMHO about those who would have us belive there is a hudge landry list of 'things' we were promised and did not recive.
