Yeah, I am an avid supporter, because I didn't listen to the whiners and people who are trying to run this game at minimum specs. Bought the game and it runs prefectly fine on my mid..ish system.
Since when do you guys play computer games? Since the dawn of recommended specs everyone knows you better be close to them or a good cut above them, don't even bother with your premanufactured, overpriced, bloatware filled and by default underperforming piece of compaq or dell or whatever manufacturer you bought it from.
Sorry had to vent.

To spell it out for those who still don't see the point behind this poll: dev team has revenue = continued development, dev team runs out of revenue = no more support for the game.
This is just one idea to prevent that from happening, there may be others of course, all I wanted to see how the community stands in terms of continued support for the devs.
Ok, even though the fewest people here seem to really read through a thread before posting, we all bought the game, we all spend the asking price either oblivious to the problem postings and reviews or in full concience of them. I fall into the latter category, in any case complaining you were ripped off is completely invalid.
I did get what I payed for and am happy with it, of course I want more and, deveating from my original postion a bit, as multiple people stated, if made into a comprehensive package am willing to pay for that additional content as well.
The cries for "first fix the game", they are fixing it, did you guys miss that?
I am aiming for continued support not for the next month or two but for years to come.

Ah, I see. Well I've already spent £100 of my money, and that's enough from me for the basic game to be made good.

Had I bought it @ £13.99 from Just Flight, maybe I'd be willing to shovel in some more cash for the basic game to be made good by buying additional content, so my attitude of 'not yet' still holds true.

'They are fixing it' isn't the same as 'It's fixed'. At all.

How dare this subject even be approached with the state of the sim in it's present condition.
Although if this post is meant to further display the discontent of the majority of purchasers, then good on it. I believe there are too many fanboi's willing to accept the substandard product and associated excuses on these forums.
To chastise the "squeaky wheels" as being "counterproductive" in their display of displeasure, is also unacceptable.

Conditional yes.

I pay for RoF content (bought every aircraft so far) and have always been satisfied.

BUT, and thats a big but - only if the "sim base" was to my liking which it is not at the moment and won't be for the foreseeable future.

The way it is now I wont buy a campaign, theatre pack or single aircraft.

I'm in the same boat. Bought RoF ICE and bought all the planes either on sale or preorder. I'm not buying any of the mods though. Value is just not there yet Buying a plane for $4 and then 4 or 5 bucks for a gunsight or a fancy gauge, I just don't see it.

What helps RoF is that it's only a 1 theater simulator. With a WWII sim I don't mind spending 40 or 50 bucks on a theater. This way most of the planes in that theater would be there. Not just the popular ones. People are most likely not going to spend a lot of money on a crap plane only to get blown out of the sky on a fulltime basis. The skies would be filled with 109's, fw190, Spits and Mustangs. Forget about the Fokker DXXI's or Fairey Battles and other obscure or low production number planes that played a part in May 1940.

So bring on the new theatres, after the base program is fixed mind you.
