Developer posts suggested they were close to releasing the new graphics patch before Christmas, but posts from BS suggested they ran into some severe bugs. Common sense would tell me that they are still working thru the bugs and testing. If they couldn't release the patch before Christmas its unlikely they would be able to release it just a few days after they come back.

I'd like to support your product Furbs, but you have no history of accomplishing anything, you haven't involved the community with your product, no screenshots, no website, so I can't get involved at this time. Hopefully after you've spent a few more years working on your product, you will have gained more respect for the hard work of others.

Respect is pointless if the product fails to deliver. I think you chose the wrong forum to work this irony mate.

Oh, the product will deliver, i'm pretty shure about that.

The only thing failing is the patience of some people.

If you think it will be a good product, stay and be patient, if not, maybe you should cut bait??

And, common sense is much overvalued

I'm pretty sure the product will deliver as well, it just might take a year or two. I guess the thing is we missed that piece of info stated on the box at the time of purchase.

As far as trust in what has been accomplished in the past, the driving force resposible for previous titles has left the building just prior to release. It remains to be seen if the new team can deliver and might give people cause for concern.

Unless you did absolutely no research into it before purchasing, bought from Russia or were living under a rock it was very well known what state it was in upon release.

I agree there is considerable cause for concern. Everyone understands the development hasn't reached the level they've been striving for, for many years, and there is certainly no guarantee they will succeed. The sim hasn't died yet, so there is still hope. What has been accomplished so far runs well on my system, so I take it out for a sping once and awhile, while I wait patiently for further patches.

I have alot of respect for what the developer has accomplished so far and fully understand that it is still a work in progress. I suppose people could come to your conclusion if it hadn't dawned on them that it is still a WIP, and a considerable amount of patience is required.
