I was worried about the sim in the start, i'm not anymore and the reasons are very simple:

1) They have enough money to keep going with the development. I don't need them to tell me personally, i can logically deduce it from the fact that they are talking about future add-ons and seeing them hiring new people (the sound engineer).

2) They know about the bugs and they read what needs to be read. Once again, i don't need them to tell me personally because i can see things getting fixed in the patches. If things get fixed it means they either spotted the bugs themselves or they read our bug reports. In any case, the end result is the same and it's to my benefit. I don't need them to tell me about each and every bit they are working on as long as they keep fixing things.

In other words, if someone is too lazy to make a couple of logical deductions and get a feel of how the forum operates so that one knows where to look for information, then that person is beyond receiving any help anyway and functions like a forum time sink. That's the polite way to say they are wasting everyone else's time. I stand by this and consider it true because it's not about complaining (they have every right to do it), it's about how they do their complaining that's making their valid concerns turn into a waste of time. Sorry, just calling it the way is see it.

I can also deduce they are working on add-on and hiring a new sound guy...i just wonder why the aircraft modeler is working on a i-16 and isnt working on a E-4 or making the cockpit for the dornier?

Or why it took till 4 months AFTER release and for it to brake, for them to work out the sound is rubbish and doesn't work?

4 months and some menu buttons dont work, loadouts in single player cant be changed on the fly on the "loadout" screen.

AI still fly like F-16, stukas dogfight, whole sqds of aircraft dont react and can be shot down on their way home, wingmen crash into ground while you land.

Still no CO-OPs online, servers still disconnect after a hour or so(plus the sound bug)

4 months so far Blackdog...how long should it take? how long before we can be allowed to moan and cry? 6 months, a year?

4 months and still core aspects of the sim are broken or missing.

How long for you personally will it take before you get worried?



So i can deduce the same things Blackdog, and iam worried now.

Maybe the graphic work for the E-4 or the Dornier is finished but not the FM or something? Think about that!

Not everybody in a software team can do everything. A graphic artist doesn't program and a programmer doesn't do graphic jobs. So while one waits for the other he can do other things like stuff for add-ons and so.
Many people here forget/don't know that and so they can't understand that some not so important things get fixed in patches while others don't.

I hope you understand what I mean. It is not a personal attack against you or anybody here.
I'am also very disapointed when bugs don't get fixed in a patch but I'am a software developer and I know hard and frustrating bug fixing can be and that it tooks sometimes longer to get them fixed.

This post, imo, falls in the category "time-sink",
same complaints, nothing new, in short: who cares?
Sorry to have added to the "time-sink"
