Firstly, I wish you all had been this passionate about the landscape during development when I was saying how dreadful it looked, maybe something may have changed, secondly Oleg promised us that the landscape would be many many times better than WOP - he either lied or as we now know he hadn't been involved in the deveolpment for a year and a half before release he maybe hadn't seen how bad it was.

Biggest issues for me:-
Landscape is rubbish
Sounds are rubbish
MP sounds dont work
No flyby sounds
No engine start up sounds
Flickering shadows are rubbish
Not being able to end a flight in multiplayer, or refuel/rearm or press refly is simply pathetic
Servers randomly disconnecting is tiresome and rubbish
Anyone seen a windsock yet?
Flying through Trees is er rubbish
Micro stutters are still there, they are rubbish
AI Planes flying around with the landing gear down - rubbish
AI is rubbish
Big rectangle lakes in the middle of maps, rubbish
Then we got all the bugs - they are rubbish
Buildings popping up in 2011!! Rubbish
etc...

....and to add to that, after the cash that i spent on this game had been quickly trousered Luthier then announces that they had released an 'half finished' game, well 4 months later I would like to see the other half that I paid for, or at least some regular communication, Im going to put it in big letters COMMUNICATION, thats all it takes to remove a little bit of the heat Luthier, you've heard it said many times on here why dont you listen to your customers?

Err, actually Tree other people did point out the crap things about it too, but cut some slack with it being beta.

Ok Tree we'll admit it. You saved the world mate. Single handedly (Christ.... lol).

Some don't see the point in banging on about things every other 5 seconds, on a daily basis though, and have better things to do. Once or twice should be enough. Have to admire your persistence though. 'Obsession', the new fragrance by TreeUk. (LMAO )

PS completely agree with all your other points and I'm just ribbing yer a bit mate. You're a Star.

lol, well I saved nothing mate as it happens, look at the state its in, to be fair during the development many people that did get passionate were quickly silenced by means of a ban, myself (many times) included, I know a lot of people were a little more subtle than myself and maybe that is the correct way of going about things, sadly its just not me.

This sim engine has much more positive points than negative. But some people here try to just focus on negative points, because maybe don't have a real life and see themselves like some "crusaders" against the evil Maddox Games, with all - let's say clear - lies about some know "issues" about the sim that the dev team always know and use an evasive approach...

Ok, we all know that Tree was right about everything. Now we can move foward? The sim is really fun, even with the flaws. It's plain obvious. Let´s try to fly the sim and let the dev team work over the problems.

Yes, we can fly this sim, MP, SP... Use FMB... It's working even withou stutters over London now with lower texture settings...

Really MP is working?? Thats odd, the most people Ive seen online at best is around 40 spread across the choices of about 8 servers - thats impressive for the greatest flight sim ever.

We only have now limited full real missions and some "airquake" servers... People need to have time to create good MP servers nad missions, and we have some bugs to devs solve, like the sound one. But now we can have some fun in MP servers without constant crashes/diconnects.

You sound like a broken record now. I like your points some months ago, but now you are just boring. Go fly this bugged sim and try to have some fun!

We cant...thats the point. SP has no campaign. MP has no sound or CO-OPs or the servers brake after a hour.
