Yeh I agree this is more realistic and the advantage of posting the truth of the matter to users. We can set realistic expectations and give it more time than a it should be here next week type of judgement.

While I might cynically doubt the truth of this from others, or think that they might be speaking for effect or sympathy - or be suffering from moral or emotional dyslexia - all such doubts are pushed aside when I see your name attached to the post. How brilliantly you overcome your impediments, without rancour or bitterness.

Imagine a world where this passion for fixing everything wrong with the sim was present before we were charged 50 bucks......

Thanks BlackSix

I'm sure it will be worth the wait B6. Thanks for the update

Listen I would have been really upset if you did put the patch out with all those known issues. I just wanted to say I feel your frustration and I respect and appreciate the update, It is what it is and once you exorcise the demons that are possessing it right now I know this will truly be the best combat fight sim to date and for years to come. So thanks for the update I'm sending you positive energy and thoughts and feel this will all be worth the wait.

Thanks for the update!
I hope the patch will not match the marriage of a good friend, the release of Duke Nukem`3 or the end of the world!

Just kidding, keep up the work!

That's so much better knowing exactly what they are working on. Now we can share the understanding and not fret over unknowns. It would be important to get those issues corrected before release, I agree. Still wanting to spend my $ on buying CoD, but holding back until it's done.

>>Just asking: is this kind of posting legit in this forum? Very harsh attacks on fans and developers alike. <<

Good point. I think it falls below the high standards set by youself and others, here and elsewhere. If only more would follow your example, there would be much less nonsense on this forum.

Bongodriver:

>>The whole point people miss with this one is the is no sequel without a 'working' engine, there is no suggestion of the sequel being sold before the COD patches because the patches are what is intended to make a 'working' engine, <<

Nicely put. If only more people knew where they were going wrong!

>>there has been 'no' suggestion that the sequel will have to be purchased to get the COD patch<<

Absolutely no suggestion. Correct, again.

>>but the sequel 'will' bring extra features to COD as a merged instalation....hopefully the dynamic weather everyone wants etc.<<

That's good. Many people have started to doubt the process after the length of time involved, and re-assurances liek this,w ith accurate predictions, are just what this forum needs to 'settle the troops.'

Respectfully, perhaps a Mod might consider turning your posts into a Sticky, or at least gathering them all into once place. Liek Chivas, you seem to have the knack of knowing what's going on at any given time, and it would make a useful reference point for those looking for the main facts from a single source.

We appreciate the energy that you and a few others are putting into all your posts. Please do not think it goes unnoticed by the silent majority.
