"Friday" Update, April 28, 2012

[jibo]

honestly i'am quite optimistic, since the last patch made the game playable, the tone has changed, people on the forums are acknowledging that the game is far above 1946 and actually "fixable".
I surmise there is a lot of players hidden in the background waiting for the multiplayer to be stable. And as soon as it's done the community will rise again.
( I still have in mind the 800 connected on simHQ when Cod was announced.)
with this patch at hand, we can quietly wait untill BoM is released, yes we can.

btw the team could release a DX10 beta patch

Hmm... Seems like the "detractors" are still undefeated....

Add me to that list. I am waiting to see if the game becomes playable on less than several thousand dollar machines.

I am running an mildly overclocked E8500 with a geforce460, 8g ram on win7 64.

If it ever looks like it will be playable on my rig I'll immediately buy it. If not I'll wait until I upgrade to a quad core.

By the time I do that, we will know if this thing is ever going to fly or not.

I'm running a mildly OC'd E8500 with a GTX 570. Frame rates were never an issue (except in the presance of smoke effects), the problem is being dropped to the desktop because ot the launcher.exe problem every half an hour or so. (Much less time if flights of bombers are close by).

I am confident that the issues identified will be solved. The sequel (BoM) is the driving force to have this new engine functional and CloD is the benefactor - releasing it with problems would be a mistake.

As for 'pulling the plug', I am sure I read that the 'state' helps with financial support/investment for companies like MG (or something similar). I could be wrong but, either way, don't be too pessemistic.
