All I needed to hear....

I personally think much of what's been going on here at the boards lately is storms in watercups, to be honest. Then again, maybe I'm just patient after years of gaming. Who knows?

If this had been an MMO where we paid €15 per month to play, then I might be inclined to sympathize and agree with much of the posts. Some would still say that since they've paid €50 for the product, that entitles them to behave like a rabid pack of ADHD-addled children on a sugar-high. Each to their own, I guess.

As I said, I'm patient. The sim has come leaps and bounds so far, and as long as I continue to see improvement, I'm happy. Rome wasn't built in a day, patience is a virtue, and more people should learn and understand that. Hell, the original IL2 also had it's share of issues when it launched, as far as I remember. And regardless of what people might say, software is rarely if ever error-free when it's released, and no piece of software survives meeting the myriad of configurations that are out there in terms of hardware, patches, drivers and tweaks.

Would I like to hear more from Luthier and the team about what they're working on etc? Sure I would. Am I about to go balls-to-the-walls monkey that they haven't done so? Nope, as that wouldn't solve anything. I'll simply choose to focus my energy somewhere else, and keep an eye out for further patches and test them as they come.
