Over all I never thought there was a lack of communication. We can't be privy to all the goings on in the development and they have made hundreds of posts giving us info when required. Although it was interesting reading all the conspiracy theories when the development went thru slow periods.

Once they render the Grass/Clouds/Trees like Blacksix said they would, then this game will be even better then just the no CTD. I am starting to enjoy it now after the Mini Hotfix, but when these things are done i'm sure I am going to have bags of fun flying this.

Yes sir!

I have even been playing offline as well as messing around on dogfight servers.

I am really looking forward to fixed trees and clouds (and grass apparently) they add a lot of life to the scenery.

I'm feeling the love once more now I am not plagued by the 45 minute CTD

Let's see...

My squad have all either not purchased CloD or uninstalled it, save for one or two of us...

I still have CTDs.

My frame rates are lower, overall.

The planes I like to fly are not worth flying at this stage of "development".

It's been over a year, and we are still in an Alpha state.

I no longer have any faith that this sim will be finished to an acceptable level.

Color me jaded.

I'm inclined to agree with Dutch and ElAurens. There is a pattern of behavior with luthier to bite off much more than he can chew and leave things incomplete. After a cursory stab at the eastern front and a smattering of aircraft types, they'll move on to something else. Rinse and repeat.

The market does not give any other choice really. Try to persuade Activision or EA that development of a WWII flightsim can be profitable.

This is the best team in the world that is ready to work on a WWII sim and we are lucky the project was not closed 1 year ago or this morning.

After long and hard engine rewrite the things are just starting to turn to a bright side. B6 mentioned that they target more patches for CloD. Extra contents is to be done by the community of cause. No other choice.

There are not many high quality flight-sim programmers in Russia. Move to Moscow and apply to 1C if you are very good and very inexpensive

I believe the OP meant to agree with constant communication, on an optimist note.

How did this thread get dragged into the usual whine fest?
