Throw a scrap out and keep the masses happy, or so it seems

There really isn't much more to say than "we're looking at it" or "we're not looking at it". Were you expecting to get dev meeting transcripts?

No, but if they are going to offer an 'update' at least have something to say?

We (the community) have been given the mushroom treatment now for 15+ months by 1C, am I wrong to think (or expect) anything above the normal 'nothing to say' 'update'?

They DID say something. They said what they're looking at and what they're not looking at. What other sorts of things were you expecting them to say?

[kristorf]

After this amount of time that they had actually fixed something instead of just turning it off for a start.

What they are and are not looking at has hardly changed from day one, which indicates to me that they are lost and are just stringing it out in the hope
that peeps will stay with it.

In other words, you would be complaining no matter what they said.

It appears to be working. You're still here.

This is not a thread for arguments. If thats what you want to do today go somewhere else.

Looks like there is nothing more to say after that

EXACTLY!!!!! Additionally, showing us screenshots of some add on that may be released in a year or two is hardly exciting, Im interested in THIS game, and not what may come down the pipe. All I see are shots of different colored planes flying over different colored landscapes which apparently will have the same crash/stutter/fps issues that this game has unless its all fixed, which, at this point, is not looking so good. You can dress up the landscape all you want, it doesn't change the fundamentals, which is we still have a game which is quite flawed, and we supposed to be impressed by the new "fall" trees.

If the nice autumn trees shimmer and stutter like the old ones, whats the point? same circus, different clowns.

"crash/stutter/fps issues that this game has"

Sorry but I can't sympathize....

On my spartan system... I see no stutters or fps issues to speak of in many different missions of various sizes ...I am sure some do...but maybe it's your systems... I guess I might see stutters or fps issues if I were to try a massive mission, the way BOB should be....But those days will probably come and if not...I will spend my time in another "world" and use this one for the fun it presently renders.

Crashes? what Crashes...The only time I see "crashes" (not really a crash, just a dumb launcher error message) are when I exit the Sim and it tells me the launcher has stopped working... yeah no kidding, I would expect that if the game is shutdown...Game is closed by me and I get that message...so what...just a glitch that does not affect play... it matters not.

on another note...I have to say ATAG has some fun things happening on their server.....Maybe some... not necessarily you... should try that instead of spending so much time here whining.... There is some fun to be had... IMHO it is alot more rewarding to fly against humans than it is to fly against AI...Even if I get my backend handed to me... It might be fun shooting some of you cry babies down...
