Why does luthier even bother?

Really, I think Luthier shouldn't bother anymore, its clear this project is well over the heads of the DEv's, give the game to the community, let the real pro's fix it like they did Il2.

Lmao what a load of bs.... Ahahah.

For me the game is running quite well, obviously you can't test it fully until they remove the crash bug.

Tree stop throwing your toys out of the pram.. It's a beta and luthier specifically stated that some system were experiencing problems... I could agree with your toy throwing if this was a proper patch but this is a BETA we are meant to test it.

That said from what I have seen cockpits over saturated and land is back to being too pastel coloured.

Those complaining about it without considering that is a beta is likely to be those who have not yet accepted the fact that months ago bought a simulator in an alpha state.
The damage has been done at the release, and now the only possible thing we can do is be positive, cooperative and patient.

just my 0.02 eurocents

We are Alpha testing. I vote for 1C to do closed testings instead. Then we wouldn't have this bullshit every beta(read:alpha).

This community testing must be so ineffective. There's no testing protocol or report syntax and 1C gets a shitload of uncomprehensive mails that they have to sort out to find real reoccuring issues that's not related to other stuff.
Not to mention the zillions beta bug threads that soil the forum.

Dolt how else will they be able to test the huge number of different setups that we run...!!!

Hotfix is available.

In answer to the OP,

Because it's his Job.

Gentlemen, even though a beta was released with a "huge" bug, and now a hot fix in place to remedy said bug. We are moving forward and that is what matters. The speed at which the hot fix was released shows that the cause was minor and the repair quick.

It could be much worse, like some games in the past that were released and left as they were, bugs and all with no further development.

I thank the developers for their continued work in this project and I for one will test 100 more betas (bugs and all) to reach a solid and complete game.

We expect their continued support for this game so why should they expect less from us? Yes, I know we paid for the game, that is all the more reason for us to give what we can and give positive support. I can guarantee, people are much more responsive to constructive input than negative reaction.

The patch works fine for me since hot fix, love the sound, love the colors and I do find it running smoother with very little stutter...I have not flown the new beta online for testing yet.

Cheers Mates, S!

S!

Well, Luthier and his team were given a pile of unfinished code done over 6 years, restarted and whatever. I do not envy his task of finishing this product. So this is what we got for now and until Luthier's team get their work done we just have to test and wait.
But fact still is that the game is far from being even remotely ready. Potential, a step to right direction or a beta patch is NOT same as beign ready.
I already shelved the game and went to other games like World Of Tanks, A-10C Warthog etc. and just check the progress of CoD now and then. Maybe in a year or so it is mature enough to actually be what it should have been from the start. Really, I wish the Cod Would be ready and a shining start, but now..choose yourself.
