Friday 2010-10-01 Dev. update and Discussion

[chiefrr73]

Hi,
first of all i want to say my english is not so good, but i want to trie to explane what i mean:
I watched this video that was showen somewhere, a while ago, don t know anymore where and when.., i find it interesting. I found it at youtube. Looked it again and again, very often and there is showen a part where Ilya is flying a stucka ( the view from the cockpit), he is using trackIR. Then he is in a bomber ( i think it is a bomber.. don t know which one??, also cockpit view), He moves his body (top part) to the right and back, all at the same moment, like he is zooming out. This happens very fast. First you see the front of the cockpit and as he moves, like i explaned, you see something that i couldn t imagine what this could be. So i stop the video at the moment he begins to move ( at ca. 0:59 min.)
I was and i m still surprised what i saw/see. You can see the copilot or a crewmember, he is sitting next to the pilot. In my eyes the details of the pilot and all around him is very high, expecily the seat he is sitting on, more than i saw here in the screenshots. The only problem to see what i mean is, that you have to lean your head to the right, because the sight of view on the monitor, Ilya looks at, is up side down as he zoomes out. I hope you understand and see what i mean.

Hi Oleg,

I had the impression from reading your last messages that you were upset about posting some video or screenshots on Friday.

I can easily understand your position because of a lot of good reasons (pressure, stress, some cutting posts, etc).

Anyway, if you dont plan to post a video or pictures tomorrow, it would be great if you give us (your fans) some important information about BOB.

Read you tomorrow

Ok,just kidding.

If people are rude , just allow the moderator to ban the offender for 1 day,2,a week until he becomes more polite in the way of express himself.
But your Friday update is becoming a tradition for us, your fans and I risk to say that for most of us they turn the Friday a even more pleasure day than it used to be...

We will get an update, Oleg is not upset, you will be telling us next that he's refusing to sell the game to us because of some negative feed back.

is that really you'r best effort at rational thought ? or have you instantly slipped back to your old behavior and have no intention to ever try and communicate like a civilized human being

yes Oleg was/is upset at some of the constant previous negative posts and deliberate offensive behavior, to which you personally contributed a large part. its exactly the type of response you wanted from oleg after all these month/year, you'r now going to pretend it didnt happen and doesnt matter ?

and no, he doesnt have to give updates here or interact with his fanbase either, at this late stage there is very little creative or commercial need for it [/b](since the game is very close to release now and no further major significant changes in content will be made). Oleg can also instead just selectively release a page of information on updates with a few screenshots in it to one of the main aviation websites, to keep the crowd's appetite and interest for his project alive (most of us would go there and hang on every word). add to that some glitzy website a few weeks before release (so that prospective new customers who hear about it can look up some information on it before purchasing), and with those 2 acts there is then no commercial benefit for him to do it in such a personal and direct method in this forum

does oleg want to give weekly updates here and keep us (his fanbase) at the edge of our seats in the final months before release ? yes of course he does, he's like the proud parent of a new creation and want s to show it of and get feedback and recognition for how extensive his efforts have been, but there is little commercial benefit for him to do so. 98% of the people that regularly attend this forum will buy it anyway, no matter what his end product will be (based on what we have currently seen so far)

only a few days have past since your constant deliberate thread crapping here cause a major incident that clearly upset oleg and Co, being personally offensive to him ass well as ungrateful for him feeding us updates. when you drop your turds tree, you'r mum will still love you unconditionally and give you a lolly when you cry, for the rest of the world you are just a smelly whiny little kid with poop in his pants who is deliberately disruptive. if oleg continues to make updates here it is not because of you, it is in spite of you, dont confuse the two, he just now does it with a clothes peg on his nose so he doesnt have to smell you

because the view is upside-down?

Freetrack bug - happens at extreme angles, can be reduced by fine tuning FT.
