"Friday" Update, April 28, 2012

[Slayer]

Seems like every developer that jumped on the DX10 bandwagon had these same kinds of problems...that is unless your a super huge company. Some of the blame IMO goes to Microsoft , Nvidia and ATI. They won't deal with you unless it's going to be a million selling title. Just little snippets of text I've seen from various developers suggest this.

Hellgate London, Age of Conan, Cliffs of Dover and a few others all come to mind.

Frustrating but honest is better than nothing.

Thanks anyway.

Better late than never!

Was the best wise decision...make no sense to release an unfinished "buggy" patch.

I'll be still there when time will come
Good luck with your hard work!

PS: will the AI be adjusted?

Thanks for the update.

Looks like a few issues too many.

Gents,

I just want to say that I admire your persistence in adversity, your dedication to perfection, and the courage to go on with reporting to your player-base.

Love the weekly reports: Even when only problems are listed, this increases my appreciation for the complexity of this sim.

Carry on!

ridiculous... meanwhile we are back on alpha status! We were really lucky today !

Thanks for the details which really helps understand the current situation. I'd rather wait longer and have a better sim which will in turn will attract more flyers.

Now you're looking for sympathy for having to work hard?

This is just sad. I think we've all had things go sideways on us at work, but complaining about how hard life is to your customers is usually frowned upon. So is over-promising and under-delivering. Just get the stupid thing done.

After all honest words of hard work and little improvement.
That´s the way we are all used to it...
I don´t understand why erverybody is so keen on geting a new FM. I think if the guys solve the communication´s problem the sim is o.k. to me. The only thing that shakes me is the fact that I cannot give orders to my wingmen....
After all we have to wait until the dev´s get the thing done. Looking forward to get real improvements.
