Very short development update

[robtek]

I believe its because Luthier said one and a half months ago "The Patch" would need two to three months to be ready.
The people believing him are waiting and the ones without patience are elsewere.

OK, not a flame post but since you raise the issue, Luthier gave no timescales in his Roadmap:

On 3rd June he did say 'several months' for the sound bug fix:
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...905#post292905
repeated on 24th June:
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...29&postcount=6

and on 25th July 'sound progressing well' suggesting it may not take as long as first thought unless of course it was purely a jokey reference to the banjo playing rather than the banjo playing being a reference to how good they feel about progress but he did say the banjo playing represented their 'general mood':

No mention of 'the patch' but I doubt we will see it before the sound is ready. We are of course two months down the road from the 'several months' statement. I wonder what 'several months' means to Luthier and whether that has been changed by their 'progressing well' and 'general mood'.

IMHO it really would be nice to hear another 'Very short development update' but lets not start that tit-for-tat argument again.

Its impossible to give exact dates on completely new software production. Everyday you add code its a lottery on what happens next. It certainly won't happen quick enough for many, but I'm sure when the development team has something substantial to report we'll be one of first to know.

I'm not waiting for a patch as I'm sure it will be out eventually. Instead I'm trying to remember if there was ever an apology for what was released as a game.

Not so much an appology but an aknowledgement of it.

The sound system is NOT the most important thing needing to be fixed.

Atm, the offline playing is almost impossible, due to broken Radio Commands system, and the bugs associated with AI behavior.

THAT is the thing most needing a fix.

I feel for you even some of us are not interested in off-line play but at least we can turn Forest off and bypass the sound bug.

ALL the things that prevent actual play need fixing, like the poor so and so's that are stuck with a dual GPU card, the XP/Dx9.0 players that can't even run it, etc. Anything that prevents play is important, including stuff that doesn't directly affect me if it stops guys coming on-line - which does affect me. MP has improved with a few get-arounds and the US release but its still seems to be only available to a limited number.

Back on our heads.......

Yes, Luthier did say that everyone has a right to be pissed at the state of the unfinished sim on release, but suggested they would do everything in their power to make it right.

Ok, and for me they still have a lot of goodwill left because of IL2.
