Though the effect is the same, IMHO currently most people have turned their backs on this forum and just come back sporadicly for the rare news shared with us for a different reason.

With little information and the status of the game, there is not much room for anything to discuss here, other than discussing discussions and raaaids neverending sandbox-wisdoms.

Exactly. But that will be changing Luthier said, a spokesman will represent their team, and after the upcoming patch we will see increased activity again.

As said,nothing to discuss.Its broken,most people have realised that,and have gone away for a while in the hope that,when they return things will be better,and CoD will finally be what it promised to be.

I'm glad the game is out (mostly)...the way things had been going, we might have been waiting for a long-long time. This way we have our hands on the game...no more questions about "how far along things are", or "what features are included"...even the speculation about "vapor ware" is rendered moot.

I realize that (almost) no one is going to agree with me (lol). But looking at the situation realistically...I would rather have "some fun" with the game (in its present state) then sit around waiting forever. In a prefect world they would have a big development team and lots of money to throw at the situation...but that aint gonna happen.

Sooo, lets keep complaining about "being betrayed", and "being lied too", and "being cheated"...because I'm sure that the development team has no clue about how we feel.

Devs (and I use plural) should be posting more, particularly discussing problems and potential solutions. They have so much work to do to rebuild their relationship with the community after releasing CoD in the state it was in.

Let's face it - serious revenue will have to be based on future DLC or expansions given the caning CoD got in reviews and I can't see too many buying anything right now. Just common sense and costs relatively little to post. Who knows, they might even learn something.

"The number you have dialed is not a working number"
"Please try your number again"
"Click.....buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"

The excuses for "miss-communication" and "non-communication" litter this forum...

Smoke and Mirrors....Wink and Nod....

So, yeah Tigertooo....me two.

Thumbs up

I believe we all want a complete and competent BOB COD?

As a business person, I realize at some point the developer and distributor must evaluate their ongoing expense options vs. what are prospects for profitability. It's about making payroll and keeping people interested to do their best to finish the project profitably.

It is important for us to keep a positive attitude and convey that to Luthier and the devs.

The negative talk here, and on the internet just reinforces a negative outcome for the sim we have waited for over six years. It may be more in our power to enable the future of BOB COD than we realize.

Think about it
