Nothing personal, but i've got a very honest question: if doing things one way presents problems, shouldn't something else be tried?

Because by your reasoning, it seems that you are implying something to the effect of "if you can't do it the way you initially said, then don't do it at all and let's keep the bugs". I'm not being ironic here, i'm genuinely curious about your reasoning.

It's like driving on the road and saying "i'll brake here, enter the turn this way, accelerate through the apex up to X km/h, then move on to the next corner, etc, etc".
It works more or less ok when on a race track but not for every day driving, where pedestrians or stray dogs appear in front of you. Then the plan goes out the window and you improvise.

So, my question is very simple: is our final goal to get the sim fixed, or to keep transcripts about who said what and how plans change during the course of patching so that we can argue among ourselves and pass the time? Do we want to fly the sim or the forums?

Personally, i want it fixed. Everything else is secondary to me. I don't care if B6 says the sun is a yellow square today and tomorrow he changes his mind and says it's round but black, as long as they keep experimenting to find the best possible solution to the bugs and making progress here and there i'm fine with it.
I am still waiting to buy the game. I've got all Il2 series and all...Almost bought COD one year ago...It will be fixed soon...Hum...Almost bought it a month ago...Will be fixed soon...Almost bought it a week ago...Few thing to fix yet...And now, the FAMOUS patch is an ALPHA without the fixed bugs that were responsable for the delayed release of the" patch"...
You guys have the game, paid for it and hope for the best. You have been in this situation for a looong time now. You have been the Beta testers. Now you are ALPHA testers. No working clouds. No dynamic weather, radio,Etc.
I am neither an fanboy nor a whiner. I dont play COD at all !!!
I am just trying to figure out if, and when it will be worth buying COD instead of the sequel. That is all.
And of course, if 1C wants to adopt new ways for resolving issues because the old aren't working, (the ways they were doing things for the past 12 months lets say), it is their prerogative indeed...But it is not a very encouraging sign in terms of developpement progress though...Otherwise, they would keep going on, no ?
I do hope for the best with COD, but I've been following progress for more than 6 years now...ANd it seems far from completion, and far far away from what it was " supposed" to be.
Patience my friend !
