Actually, Wolf, Bearcat's estimate on the issue, and his categorization of this community as a whole is actually quite spot on. So yes, Wastelan's comment was about four lightyears worse than what Bearcat said.

Let's face it: This community has ALWAYS been in dire need of a severe reality-check. Case in point: The SU-26-debacle. Why in any of the nine hells did dev-resources in a WWII-sim spent on developing an aircraft that wasn't fielded in the theater the conflict actually depicts?

Simple answer:because there were whiny brats in the community that whined, wailed, ranted, frothed-at-the-mouth and flipped their lid about it not being present!

Regardless, it's all a moot point at this stage. 1C yanked the plug on CLoD, which has cost them far too much money for far too little return. Of course, some members here refuse to accept that money talks and bullshit walks, and thus the whining, bitching and general idiocy persists.

What are still doing here then, if it that sad for you??

SU-26? proof of concept device?

Talking about how great the features if you condemned game are is pretty retarded, and has nothing to do with BoS.

You are one of those who did their level best to destroy COD with your mouth on here - Look at your Avatar FFS!!! "Launcher has stopped working" created with your own hand. You don't even play COD!!! Yet in the new forums you are up Jason's backside about BOS. You and a minority like you have done a great dis-service to the oh so very niche flight sim community, you should hang your head in shame, what you and your pals have done makes me sick.

Because you muppets are more fun to watch self-destruct than an army of clowns caught in a meatgrinder.

Proof of WHAT concept? How to spend dev-resources/time and money on useless content in a project that's already overrun with bugs, issues, severe flaws and unfinished code? If anything, the whole development/completion of the SU-26 should have been thrown out of the window long before it was even started, let alone completed.

That is because their only goal was to destroy COD by badmouthing on these boards despite not even owning a copy of the sim. They are ROF fanboys through and through, God only knows what they think they would achieve by doing what they've done.

Or maybe it's because the new forums are rather ruthlessly moderated in order to keep people like that in check, perhaps?

I'd go with that. This forum has always needed a severe upgrade in moderator ruthlessness in order to quell the trolls, but that upgrade never came. Which results in the community we have here now and had here for the last few years.

You can go with that but you are wrong. These guys nailed their colours to the mast with fanfare before a line of code is written, before moderators were even appointed - this has been a victory for them and they've been celebrating the confirmation of removal of a ton of advanced features in excahge for 777 and a ROF engine (which looks terribly limited)
