This is the perfect follow up to a post calling someone a spiteful child. Kudos to you!

The childish nature or spiteful forum members who try and belittle others is beyond me.
I really think it is hypocritical, too.

Clearly we all want to buy the game; we wouldn't have signed up to this forum if we weren't interested in the genre, so it is ridiculous to assume that people are happy Oleg is moving away from sim development, and equally stupid to assume that people don't want to buy the game, or see it develop into something even more special.

Well said Phil,
Used to enjoy visiting this forum for updates/vids/screens and flight combat
sim discussions with fellow mature gamers,but in the last few months it has
turned into a joke.
About 5% of members??? on here are destroying the forum.
Where are the Mods on this forum?
This behavior would not be tolerated on any other gaming forum.
The 95% of genuine members/visitors who have followed/played il 2 for
years and who have waited the past 5 years to play the best combat sim
ever are just sick and tired of the nonsense/off topic/trolling/insulting posts.
Should have been the most exciting week ever on this forum but instead
has been hijacked by the bad apple brigade.

Did it cross your mind that the choice might be dx11, tesselation and naff performance or, and here's the ground breaking bit you ignore, no tesselation effects, no dx10 tech compensation and good performance. Basically not doing the effects you get in dx11 at all, and having a reduced, in comparison, level of detail until a later patch activates it. Much the samevway the water detail was increased in il2's lifespan.

As I said, using dx11 capable card market share as the indicator is deceptive. Few people will build a new rig and use an old gpu, and dx11 capable cards have been about for the past 18 months+. That's basically all new gpu's, and a better indicator of how useful or applicable dx11 is would be assessing how many games use dx11 and how many people actually play in dx11 mode. HD capable televisions were available for years before we saw much in the way of HD broadcasts.

A recent article in PC Gamer talked about the usefulness of dx11, using the unigine heaven benchmarker. The conclusion was yes, it makes it look great, but it would be unplayable, and having flat textures rather than tesselated cobblestones is preferable from a gaming and playability viewpoint.

I'd like to add that if you're going to repeatedly call people stupid, it's a good idea to use "their" and "there" correctly.

You know its not really worth replying anymore, at this point I am just fed up with the trolls, who are too lazy to read so its not worth arguing with someone who is in their little bubble.

Chivas and Hayward - not once have I seen you 2 contribute in any way to a discussion other then with snide remarks. I love how you hate on tree when he didnt even comment, its obvious you are posting just to get a reaction and its childish.

-Didnt want to post it in the other thread, but for the record Olegs recent post about devs making low quality, high return multiplatform games that result in stagnation of the gaming industry is exactly what I said about a month ago. If people remember I posted a thread about GDC2011 graphics and made those exact points, about software (ported to pc with badly implemented changes) and the lack of motivation or need for new hardware.

-Hayward, learn to read kk?

Heliocon, I haven't seen you or Tree contribute in any way other than to troll and insult people. That's why I started making fun of you.

And you're not really in a position to be telling others to grow up.
