Is this really what you have to show for after nearly 7 months??

WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!

Extremely disappointed.

Was nice knowing you 1C.

Really?

I see it for what it is

A beta patch

One that they themselves said has issues (disabled features) and are providing it for the sole purpose of getting feedback from the users (logs, dumpfiles).

Now we can either be part of the solution here and provide our logs and dumpfiles or we can sit back and complain that this beta is not the final patch

Your choice!

This is a testing patch that is not even beta.

It's not final. Which means, it's not meant to be flawless. Its purpose is to experiment with different solutions, put it out to volunteer testers and gather the results, so that later they can simply go "this works and we're keeping it, this doesn't and we're changing it".

I'm locking this, not because of criticism on the patch, but because of the tone of said criticism, breach of forum rules and redundancy (there are already numerous similar posts).

The bottom line is very simple. If you are willing to spend your time testing and providing feedback, install the test patch and fly it. If you just want to step into the final version where things work right off the bat, wait for the final patch.

There's nothing wrong with either approach. What is wrong is assuming things will be as one wants them to be when there is ample statement to the contrary, then complaining about it when it is not the case.

It's like i'm showing you an apple, you want to believe it's an orange, take a bite and then complain that it tastes like apple.
