Is the main issue with 1C the lack of communication? Feedback = Consideration for us?

Il wager you they do, name your price.

I have no doubt that you will find new features in BoM that you think should have been included in CoD.

Not quite what i said is it.

So fancy a bet?

Im saying the developers will say "FIXES for COD will come with the release of BOM"

Hence i will not be buying until i see some reviews first.

I know it's not what you said, but it's what you're going to do. They'll release the game and you'll start complaining about the new features that were not included in CoD. That way you can't possibly lose the bet.

I'm concerned that once(if) they get the core "engine" smoothed out, they will then move full bore on getting BOM out the door. Meaning, all the bugs in COD(see bugtracker) will be left unresolved as the push will be BOM. All the warts in COD might be left as they are(radio commands, etc.). I hope this isn't the case, but I think it's a possibility.

Ok. Let me simplify it. Forget about features(IE: Dynamic weather, Su 26 etc.)

Being an offline player, these are examples of things that are keeping me from playing the game:

Radio commands
AI
Trees you can fly through (total immersion killer if you can land a damaged plane in a forest)

Lots more...but no need to rehash everything mentioned in the past.

The question is, will I have these things fixed in a patch without having to purchase BOM?

Maybe they will get some attention, I'm offline mainly too but to be honest never use radio, i find it an immersion killer having to press a button and scroll through a list of commands.

AI

turns out it wasn't so porked though, in the FMB provided it turns out the AI can be tweaked to behave quite well and there has been an improvement there in the last patch too.

Trees you can fly through (total immersion killer if you can land a damaged plane in a forest)

in the mean time can't you just land in the bits without trees just like you would if the trees 'were' collideable?

Lots more...but no need to rehash everything mentioned in the past.

sadly this never seems to apply to the endless whineing

if you're genuinely asking me then I'd say yes.

What is this new game everybody is agog about here????

All information i could find points to a addon/update of CoD!

If they have fixed the problems before release, of course i will buy it.
If they haven't then i will wait for the reviews first.

That's what i said in my first post.

Yep again, which is also why i expect they will say "BOM fixes COD"

So to recap...

I dont expect COD to be fixed until BOM is released, if it is then i will buy BOM, if it isn't, then i will wait for a review first.

Which is what ive been saying all along.

Why? They makes absolutely no sense. They need us to have a working CoD BEFORE they can sell BoM. How is that not obvious to you?
