hi Blacksix. was wondering about this for awhile now. WE have so many great modders in this community and people who also know how to do this kind of programing.Is it possible to release some of the workload to the community?I am sure the people who helped bring us these fantastic mods UP and HSFX can help ease the burden and get the game the way it "should" be?

was just a suggestion no need to get your panties in a bunch.

enthusiasm what a word eh? where would this world be without it.Where exactly would we all be if there wasnt some poor guy with a brilliant mind who is enthusiastic and stupid enough to do it for free?Tell that to the guys who make the version of HSFX you are flying right now.And added all those nice new aircraft for your enjoyment,added all those new features so your 10 year old version of Il2 is still as fun as it was today as it was back then.

yep..if only life was so simple.my point is dont be so fast to jump down somebodies back for asking a question.And not everyone is in it for the money.there are a few who do things for just the pure enjoyment of it.

In the current state mods would obviously only hurt and add to the mess as they'd introduce their own bugs and uneccessary complications.
And anything else besides mods would cause legal issues and will understandably not happen, ever.

Nothing can be done right now aside from proper bug testing and sending in constructive reports, logs and suggestions. And giving them some time to work.
Not sure why this is such a big deal to so many. I think it's rather hilarious.

Yeah real hilarious took everybodys money and left them with a broken game with no clue as to when it will be fixed. Then throw out little beta patches that fix some things and break others. I mean its not like it just needs abit of polish here were talking major flaws like the flying though trees and buildings and the lack of flyables still allot of work.

Rise of Flight studio is based in Russia. How come they don't have this issue?

Also, we lost a lot of employees from the old team.
Don't hire the closest developer. Hire the best you can afford. They can be any where and do this work.

The devs mentioned that they are constantly looking for people but can not find any. There are not many skilled flight-sim programmers in Russia. Russian game dev is not a very developed industry. We do not produce BF3 or Call of Duty or WOW here. If anyone wants to move to Moscow and help 1C you are welcome

I am not saying it is fine. I personally think the priorities and quality management are a bit off.

the whole ''Weve think youve waited long enough'' sums it up...''Yes its here, finally'' we all thought

My first doubt was when i read something on the lines of 'FM not finished, loads more to do etc etc'' < What? Agiain might be me but were we not lead to believe that the FM's were pretty much complete, that statement does not back up that notion..

This patch has introduced loads of bugs again, more than the last patch but has gave us tracers a tweaked FM and for a lot of us a smoother game but that is it...CTD,LOD,TREES,HURRI etc etc etc ..See Bliss's report which pretty much sums it up...WHY did we WAIT so long for this patch people? this should of been another BETA a few weeks later or if it was to be longer dont try and sell it as 'the patch'

I dont understand why we keep getting these BETA's that are messing up things, reintroducing things while fixing 1 thing (exaggeration but you get my point)

They have presently 3d modelers etc working on a sequel..a lot of people can model Aircraft in that industry i would of thought...and im sure they are getting paid for their work?....SO why arnt they using that same money to employ more people to work on the basics and getting this game to work....I Map online with SP broke for the most part CTD's FPS issues FM issues etc etc isnt working, whatever planet you live on..you cant keep hiding behind the whole, ''what part of BETA dont you understand'' that is getting very old now and it looks like were keep getting these BETAS that are hyped up at first as 'the one' for a long time yet


dunno... you tell us Potnoodles (none, have been hyped up as "the one", except for those whose expectations took control of their comprehension skills)


TBH... there are better behaved children at the local kindegarten and they also have, it appears, much better comprehension skills, than the whingers here
