Title update update

[Rugbykaiser]

Although he states he doesn't care, I have to agree with HOUSE MD on this issue. Those bugs and missing functionalities (please don't forget the messy flightstick setup) and other issues, which have been mentioned a lot of times now in various threads, do make this game certainly not perfect as some people try to believe.
So, I still hope this patch will arrive, if not I will avoid any 1C games, as I donot accept the way they treat their customers.
Hope to see some of you in an online game, if no error message appears.

The only reason you think its great and you have everyone elses support, is because everyone else has left.

Well 79% on GameRankings over 12 reviews kind of indicates otherwise. I would be interested to hear what half you think is missing... There's a good campaign, and shyte load of extra single missions and fun online. Admittedly the online generates the impression it's empty when it wasn't, which wasn't good for the title, but I'm still interested to know how you think everything on the disk only constitutes half a game?

And what makes you say it's badly coded? In caps no less. You're entitled to your opinion of course, and if you don't like the game that's fine. But don't make statements about it that are false. Give examples.

No-one said it was perfect, but it is good. The patch will be welcome, but even if it doesn't come, this game is up the with the best of my collection. My opinion, and clearly it's different from yours.

God, I am sick to death of hearing about the P bloody 51 and the other couple of dodgy planes. There 40 odd fkin planes in the game. Fly another one. Plus, the P51 was as broken in the demo as it is in the final game. Maybe you should have tried that and saved yourself and ourselves all the moaning?

Well, you know the answer then don't you?

This is ignorant and wrong. Developers are at the mercy of publishers. And 505 games, despite what a lot of you may think, do deserve credit, not only for taking the gamble with this niche product at a time when the whole world is desperate for revenue, but also for putting out the patch, despite the delay.

I think this is the core of your's and all other PC converts problem... You had massive expectations for this game, and as such it didn't meet them. It's not the dev's or the publisher's fault that the product that they've released doesn't meet your expectations. But those of us that evaluate it on it's own merits, and not what it could have or should have been, are having fun with it.

Again, ignorant and niave about the workings of the game industry. Publishers don't give a crap what gamers want. They look at their spreadsheet of what sells and make more of it until it stops selling. Now and then the odd publisher will take a risk on something, like 505 did with BoP. But when it gets thrown back in their face it's going to make them less inclined to do so. So it's behaviour like yours that is endangering these sorts of releases.

If you can't have fun with the game as is, then the patch isn't going to fix that for you.

The game it self is fine .OK GOT IT .THE problem is the COMMUNITY and the fact that we have no one to play with the ONLY thing that my get it back is the update .OK got it ,or is there a way I can draw you a picture...

[SEE]

Picture not needed, I go on every night and get a game no problem. Small community maybe but regulars are still there!

[Robotic Pope]

I agree with SEE.

Also I believe that publishers 505 games are not awful. They publish games that very few other publishers would gamble on. And I don't think you can blame them for the patch delay. Armoured Core games are published by 505 and they have constant title updates coming out, so 505 know what they are doing.
