yeah it's quite obvious, the fact that he's in charge of PR for a software house that has sold for good a rough beta is obvious too, as it's obvious that he has no respect whatsoever for his customers.

Take the sound example for a minute: they hired a sound engineer AFTER the game was released.. the scenario that is starting to depict is quite simple: they were forced to release a game, whilst keeping the original roadmap they had planned, and instead of giving some kind of explanation they keep on joking about it, like nothing happened.

Reality check my friends, reality check..

You need to take a deep breath before you have an aneurysm. Oleg stated ages ago that he had to release the game before Christmas last year as he was out of cash. How he got to spring is anyone's guess but I am prepared to cut them some slack even though I have only played 10 hours of CLOD since release. Luthier now has some breathing space and is finishing the sim for us to make his future and ours bright. Take the hate and use that energy for something useful.

Lets be clear, Luthiers post is not a "update"...its just a funny post.

Sorry, but line #2 in his post does seem like an update to me. Quick and short one, yes, but an update none the less. Maybe not what we'd like to see (I'd love to see a better roadmap for fixes etc), but hey, at least it's SOMETHING.

Again, 100% of something is better than 100% of nothing.

why do we need a sound patch ?
we aldready have some very good sound mods
i dont think they will beat them.

What we need are good textures.

Thanks for the medical recommendations, love it when people get so brash and out of place because they're posting on a forum.
Anyway, I know the story, it doesn't change the fact that there's better ways of handling this, if you're happing with knowing nothing about it, fair enough, I won't make a comment about it, but please have respect for people that do care and would like to know what's going on. It's not that hard, is it?

I don't think I can have a constructive exchange of opinions with someone who really thinks this post is nothing but another joke, from a person that can't really afford to be only a joker..

I know a lot about it as I have been following development for years, I also have no respect for people who go on and on like a broken record. You have information that you refuse to hear and demand more and more detail that you won't get. Hence the calm down statement as you are doing your blood pressure no good, history has shown a bit of humour in a dark place can be a good thing lest we all go mad.

well the fact that you have no respect for people that have a different opinion and would like to be heard is your problem, not mine.

I have been listening to the same information you have, you draw your conclusions based on your experience, so do I.

I dunno whether I should feel sorry about the fact that my blood pressure is regular (in fact a bit too low lately)? Please help me understanding.

Or maybe it's just a case of you being a troll, deliberately poking people that are not happy just to stir some mess and then point fingers? Who knows..

Again, feel free to explain, I (unlike you) am a very tolerant person.

If you feel that you cannot have a constructive exchange of opinions with me, then that is your own beef.

I choose to view Luthier's post as an update, since it technically contains an update. I choose to view that post as 100% better than nothing at all, and I'm content with that. Is it as good as I'd hope? Of course not. But I'll still take it.

You, on the other hand, do nothing but wail, moan and spew vitriol onto the boards with just about every post. If not doing the same makes me a joker, then so be it.

I would like a clarification from you as to why I can't really afford to be only a joker, if you please.

you obviously read only certain posts, cos there's plenty of useful posts made by me, have a look when you have time..

As for the request for a clarification, I'm afraid there's a lost in translation issue here, I wasn't referring to you, but to Luthier.
