Thoughts about Friday's update

[zanzark]

Well, around 18 months have passed since first realease, and I'm still waiting for a decently playable game.

It's very nice all of this "beta patch" stuff, and the hope that some day we will have a decent game...
BUT, we are not beta testers. Beta testers GET paid, to test software.

Campaign is still broken.
Crashes a lot. (NO I'm not sending crash reports, because i'm not a beta tester)
Still a lot of freezes during gameplay, which totaly ruins the experience.

Damage models are still absolute crap. Sometimes you can unload all the worlds lead into the bombers engine and nothing happens. No smoke, nothing.

Today I crashed into a bombers tail. My airplane vaporised. And this is what happened to it's tail:


That is Alpha bug.. not even beta.
Just give up, scrap the project and just make a new expansion to IL2 Sturmovik. (Or ask daidalos guys to do it)

I've beta tested several products (RO2, WoT, ARMA 2 daily betas to name a few recent ones).

Still waiting on those cheques...

What? You couldn't have put this in any of the other whinefest topics? It's not like you said anything that's not been said before. You didn't even add a flair of originality. Shheeesh!


Honestly, if you feel they should give up, then maybe it's you that should step back for a while. 1C may or may not ever get it right, but they're not giving up.

Sorry. You hit a nerve, and I'm hornery today.

Why do you want it to fail. Lets assume it did, what would you do then. Go somewhere else I would guess. Why not just say to yourself that this is a dead project and it has failed and then go somewhere else to start with? So you are finally a free man and you do not have to worry about this.

I think you're trying to start a new troll, which roused to fight. I think this is your real purpose of this thread. Hope it will be closed soon.

Just like to point out the squad Tree UK refers to is JG27 not 5./JG27.

People often refer to us in error as JG27...

Yes that is true, Im not aware of 5./JG27 winning any online comps in IL2FB anyway. But thanks for the clarification.

Clarification was for people who feel the need to "have suprises" waiting for people when they get on there servers... - I didnt know ATAG banned people or booby trapped there server because of what people said on 1c.

Ah yes I see your point Farber, forgive me if you thought I was being terse. I dont fly with JG27 tags anymore so I cant imagine it being a problem with any of your guys if the server has been booby trapped purely for me.

Im still stunned he took the time to write a code to "suprise" you.

Well, There will be nothing till monday now at least. I really thought we would have had answers yesterday...
