There seems to alot of knowledge here on how easy it should be to create WW2 Combat Flight sim from 1's and 0's. I know the developer would be terrified if we put all the talent gathered here to give them some competition. LMFAO

there was an update on last Friday

Are you Ok Chivas, your acting a little strange?

[=FI=Scott]

I know the drill well enough so far as not telling us when a patch is coming out but could they tell us when it isnt ?

Namely can B6 confirm that the patch will not be released this week ? (please)

[David198502]

well then "You will see the beta graphics patch very shortly" obviously means two weeks be sure.
i really get impatient now.all we get is

"for some reason the beta patch is delayed"
why?
...no answer
what will it contain?
...no answer
when can we expect it?
"very shortly"
...
"no update this week"

i really love the communication with us!

We are all a little tetchy, but until we get news that the patch is ready then we dont really need an update, Im sure if the patch was ready the dev's would have got it sorted before their holidays, I hate to say but we do just have to be patient, and hope that all this waiting will be worth it.

Thanks for letting us know. At least it will avoid the usual "Oh no, the sky is falling" parade I'm deploying north a few weeks anyways for the winter exercise. I guess patch will be waiting for me when I get home, or at least an update

Seeya around in a few weeks

We are all grateful for the communication with the team and, for those who actually understand that work on BoM does not mean that work on CloD has been shelved (We do exist. LOL), it is always nice to see developments with regards to the sequel.....

I would say the big problem is from a PR perspective. Put it this way:

Let's say you lent someone £40 and they promised they would pay you back next week..... a week passes.... you ask them were the £40 is and their reply is "Erm....ah.... I saw this brilliant program on TV the other day!"

Another week passes.... you ask them where the £40 is.

"I like cake. Cake is nice isn't it?"

A year passes.......

I have total faith in 1C and I am sure we will all have a working sim fairly soon but, it has to be said, it doesn't look too good and it is no wonder some people are getting riled about this. Is banning and/or heavy moderation really the answer? I would say it could only make matters a lot worse. Personally, if it was my decision, I would have kept the entire BoM stuff a secret...a wonderful surprise to blow our minds once CloD was working as, otherwise, it has a nasty way of looking like a switcheroo to the more suspicious out there.

I know one thing.... I am SO moving to Russia! Seems to be a holiday every time someone sneezes.

The big question is this: If, let's say, the beta patch was ready on Monday.... would it be released on Monday or would we have to wait until the following Friday due to some strange nod to tradition? Just want to know if it is worth logging in the other 6 days a week.
