For all those complaining about wrong priorities:

As far as I remember, you can read a reasonable explenation from Luthier about this in the "Suhkoi Forum Tidbits" thread.

Luthier explains that everyone that works on the game ist working on one part. eg. One guy is working with the graphics, another one takes care of the AI, a third one is improving the physics or whatever...

So why should the guy working on the graphics now start to work on the AI? That doesn´t make any sense, because no one would be satisfied with an AI programmed by the Graphic-Guy.

So while the other ones improve AI, Performance, New Planes, Weather, (...whatever) why shouldn´t the graphic-guy make the game 3d?

In my opinion we can´t really complain about the graphics in the game. Sure there are some things like flickering shadows, but overall the graphics are more than okay.(Performance is - at least on my system - another issue! still there is only 1 core used, 3 out of 8 GB ram are used...(64bit problem?))

For me this makes sense, other opinions are welcome...

See the post above...^ that's called common sense.

Well apart from this bit "(Performance is - at least on my system - another issue! still there is only 1 core used, 3 out of 8 GB ram are used...(64bit problem?))".

If the game used 8GB of ram then I would need to buy some more ram.... its a good thing that it currently uses only 3GB as most ppl don't have 8GB (correct me if I am wrong, I am not too hot on RAM).

Those guys with 3D screens and glasses would you like to comment on this feature when it comes out? Please a blunt one as some might spend some money on hardware if this feature gets positive feedback.

Also nice would be to know what hardware and software would be needed to appreciate it and what about people who have to wear glases for eye sight.

This is another kick right into the face for the people wiating for the game actually become good. Stereo is pure JUNK. I tried it myself. No chance in multiplayer anymore due to the loss of brightness in the picture. Being competitive? - NO WAY! And BTW. The performance in Clod is so bad that having to render 2 frames instead of one will make even the biggest graphicscard fail. MAybe when they finally REALLY fix SLI instead of just saying so this would also help Stereo users.

Sorry 1C but please fix the IMPORTANT things before you waste time on useless JUNK!

Winger, your tone is not for the first time far off the most basic courtesy imho.

Be aware that the game runs good for a lot of people. If it doesn't for you I in your place would first ask myself if something is wrong on my side instead of turning on the blame machine.

Then I would consider that some people would indeed like to have 3D instead of other features and just because you say something it does not necessarily make it the ultimate truth valid for every human on Earth nor every individual on this forum.
