Thoughts about Friday's update

[adonys]

when you will finally understand and stop this nonsense that offline flying it is not important?!!

are you guys mathematics challenged and can not do some simple operations to see that the most of the game's revenue comes from units sold to people playing exclusively offline? if those have nothing to play, they won't pay for a sequel, and then you won't have your multiplayer playground neither.

and that without mentioning that actually you can not have a multiplayer persistent viable world without having the missing player numbers replaced by AIs..

use your head before saying something like this ever again!

With a steam based game it would be very simple to get stats of online and offline players by letting the game phoning home. Don't know why this isn't in use already.
