Would you not assume the game be of a certain standard or would you approach with caution as its a new game being released?

I know what one I would do and obviously what a lot of others done..

What your saying is right but not on a title that was released by the same company with all the years of support and enjoyment we had in a ww2 sim market
Interesting. So, you trusted them enough to buy it sight unseen, but now you don't trust them to fix it?

That sums up my situation pretty well. We all came off 1946 with warm fuzzies because they handled that series quite well. A lot of us bought this game out of good will, knowing that it was in a bad state but also knowing that the developers needed money to keep going, and expecting that it would be fixed in a reasonable time frame. That good will is rapidly dwindling if not already completely exhausted.

1C owes us a working game, and the longer they take to deliver, the more irate and pessimistic people are going to become.

Apparently your definition of "good will" is significantly different from mine.

In any case, if they don't get CoD fixed it's not going to matter to them how irate you are. They will be unemployed and will have more important problems to deal with.

You gave them $50+/- out of good will. If they don't fix the game they're going to lose their jobs. Do you think they're really going to care if you're irate at that point?

I also gave them $50. If they don't fix the game I'll keep playing RoF. I won't be irate.

OK, what was the point?

That they're screwed if they don't fix it? No kidding.

That you won't buy the next version even if they do fix it? Complete BS.

And I'm sure they won't give a crap if you are angry about COD. Either they fix it and we're all happy, or they don't and they lose their jobs. The constant complaining from the likes of you will not change anything.
