Disgrace
 
Hi im new to the forums as you can obviously tell i had to register because i wanted to ask the devs what an earth was they thinking when they released this so called flight simulator. I mean were is the rest of it? sort of like reading a book and finding out the last 2 pages our missing. Surely you cant be selling this to the steam community without any warnings of its major flaws that are game breaking in my opinion. Constant ctd/stutter/invisible bombers with icons/flying though trees and buildings/low fps i could go on and on about how many things are not working. I mean surely you must feel embarrased about what your doing to innocent customers how the hell can you run a company like this? As a gamer i have played many games over the years and admit ive bought some that havent been finished in certain ways but my god never one this bad its still in alpha and you sell it on steam for £29.99 i dont know how you can sleep at night knowing you have done this to your fanbase. So as a paying customer i have the right to know what your going to do about it because this is just not acceptable

This post will get deleted soon , but what you say is exactly the world that the devs think doesn't exist. The people that are happy on the forums reflect the entire community.

Wrong.

The people on the forums are only posting because the vocal ones have already been banned.

Sigh...
Honestly Bob I do not know a single flight simmer that cannot read reviews. There are plenty of bad reviews out there, simhq etc. For you not to know, well I would not boast about that ;)
You bought what you paid for, it is that simple. It is a relatively good sim with some major glitches. I can honestly say I have bought worse.
But to complain a year after the horse has bolted is rather amusing.
That said a patch that fixes some of your complaints should be out in the next two weeks :grin:

Exercise your statutory rights and get a refund if the product you bought was broken.

If you are truly new to these forums Bob just read the many threads that always descend into this kind of complaint/argument and you'll know that the devs and everybody else is well aware of the problems and what they are doing about it.

If you are 'somebody we know' I suggest the moderators work out a way of preventing new registrations by reference to banned email address, IP or plain ol' smell.

I have four accounts :)
Not that I am the OP author but just indicating how hard it is for a mod to actually identify a previously banned person ;)

No point crying over it anymore. You bought it, you could have easily come to any forum and seen what the problems are. Every forum is filled with unhappy pilots. CTD, stutters, low FPS bla bla. Game is broken no doubt about it, but you made the decision to buy it, no one forced you.

On another note: They have been patching the game over and over and over, with little success to anyone. Its been almost 12 months since its release and for me personally the game is still unplayable.

I have this system:

I7 2600K
12 GB 1600 DDR3 RAM
Asus P8p67 pro board
2xAsus ATI 6970 overclocked to run at 920 mhz
64 GD SSD (with win7 and CoD installed only)

From that system i can play any game on full settings without any stutter or CTD or hitch with a decent 40 FPS. CoD is another story: low alt multiplayer flying 22-36 FPS on high settings with numerous things like grass turned off. High flying multiplayer 32-44 FPS with non stop stutters when i move the view in the cockpit using trackIR. End result? Game sitting on the shelf have not had any decent gameplay at all, only come to check if the new patch has fixed my problem, so far nothing useful.

Lastly these promised patches that would improve performance did bugger all! and now the developers are fixing aircraft performance, seriously? how can i even test performance when i CTD before i get to 8K ALT? or when i stutter like a dog with broken legs... Priorities people, priorities. Fix the dam performance issues 1st then move onto adjusting airplanes. Dont do 2 things at once otherwise neither will be done to a good standard.

P.S Another game that was released broken was RO2, but after the community complained at the developer TWI, the game was constantly patched over and over, but the patches actually worked. It would CTD for me after 15 minutes of play, have terrible frames. Now i can play it for hours on end with 60FPS locked, constantly and not a single problem. They are now picking out bugs from the game AFTER they fixed performance. They got it right, 1C has not...
