I actually don't blame the developers for their silence, considering the amount of abuse they've been subjected too and credibility isn't of any concern
I don't care if the devs take me as being credible or not, what do I have to prove? Nothing. My credibility comes from my credit card and my knowledge as a programmer. I know what its like to develop software and I know the pressure these blokes are under. But that doesn't take away the fact that I am a paying customer, they need people like you and me to survive.

There is always a middle ground and I feel they're stepping in the right direction with latest patch. I have never bagged the devs or pointed the finger at anyone but I do have the choice to continue to support this project, which at the moment, has waned, hence I'm now taking a wait and see approach.

I've said on many occasions that the best thing the devs can do is be open honest, that way we all know where we stand. I would have been happy to have waited another year or more for CloD to have come out, as long as it was a polished product. As a paying customer I shouldn't have to worry about the internal politics of what goes on, I can get that crap for free on ABC TV during question time in Parliament.

Besides if they're remaining silent because they're worried about the abuse, 10+ years of IL-2 should have toughened them up by now
