I quoted some bloke called 'scrope' or some such. It's that young geezer Hecke that prompted my comment. Wasn't referring to your comments, Splitter. I thought your observation of of the tyre tracks was spot on. I didn't see it! Review please!! Ta!

 . And it's "tire" not "tyre"....when will you people get the language right . Next you will make up your own name for "truck"  .I LOVE that there has been very little unfounded criticism in this thread. The screen shots were that good. Check out the markings on the plane in the first shot, tons of detail. Splitter Now let's all sing kumbaya

And personally I prefer 'Row, row, row your boat'. Not. Bloody yanks. But yes, I noticed the stencils too. That's attention to detail. Last edited by ATAG_Dutch; 10-09-2010 at 02:18 AM.

First of all, i have to say the updates keep getting better and better.
Second, the developer actually answers to the noise made. See what the guy said, "today i show you screenies with AA because so many people cry about them and i want to show them the engine is up to it". Third, in the same quote (as someone else posted), the high end PCs are reserved for the coders to work on and compile faster, not for the lead developer to take pretty screenshots and show to us. Good to know the equipment is being put to proper use. When coding is finished and promotion material is needed i'm sure we'll see the full detail of the sim but for now what matters is to make the best use of the team's budget for completing the simulator. Let's think about this next time we feel the urge to go all "how hard is it to see a few DX11 shots with filters." It's not hard, it's just that the dev team has their priorities set straight...finish the game first, sell it afterwards. Fourth, i'm very excited and encouraged to see how crazy and excited they are about making this and how frank and open they are on their interactions with the community. This alone scores the biggest points for me. Say whatever you want about how much you like the screenshots or not (it's a matter of personal taste after all), but one thing that must be said is that these guys might be inaccurate with release dates but they've never given us bullsh*t about the features that will make it into their titles. It might suck to know next to nothing about so many things that will or won't be in the sim, but up to now i've never seen them say "this is doable" and not see it come up at some point. Finally, it's sometimes easy to forget that we are all people here, hiding under these nicknames. I hope you now understand how much pressure mr Maddox was under last week, with his relatives facing health issues, an office move under way and all of us here demanding an update and when that comes along, a few have to spit it back in the guy's face after he had to juggle his real life commitments to make it happen. True, we couldn't have known about the guy's other life problems, but i think it's better to give them some slack and avoid the uncomfortable discussions and guilt, than verbally beat them into a pulp and then go all "sorry, i didn't really know". Personally, i'll just say thank you to the entire development team for creating something so immense for us to enjoy. Mr. Maddox enjoy your weekend, good health wishes to your family and if i ever met you in real life i'd buy you a few shots of Ruskiy Standard Vodka (it oh so very much rocks by the way, best vodka i've ever tasted in my life). Honorable mention in this thread for Skoshi Tiger and his pilot's name in RoF, Lord FlashHeart. "Welcome to the 20 minuters....let's do-ooooh-it!"  Quote:
