My fianl letter to 1c

[smink1701]

I have been very frustrated because of the following:

1. I paid full price and received half a game. In fact, before CLoDs release we were teased with many features (like pilot animation) that never made it into the game.

2. The developers have either not communicated at all or grossly misrepresented the progress of the promised fixes and game enhancements. All credibility is gone and it’s their fault, not ours.

3. We who love combat flight sims waited for years for CloD to be released and hoped it was going to be the Holy Grail of the genre. Instead we got a half finished, buggy mess with no solution or logical path for its completion. And instead of dedicating EVERY available resource to getting it fixed and delivery the game we were promised and paid for, we're getting updates on the sequel that I for one will never buy.

Spot on !!!!

Your #1 statement is the reason why? Traditionally, folks get paid on Friday and not Monday.

What ever you can say abt being childish etc... at least he did express his opinion in mature way and in a language we can all understand.

Even if individually we can't agree with all what he says, still it is a constructive comment only by this way.

So thumbs up PuPo.

I hope however you will change your mind soon.

Well said but i will probably buy the sequel because i'm stupid and still have an ounce of hope. If that hope is crushed with the sequel, then i'm done with the game permanently.

All your points are redundant and non constructive at this time, we all paid the same amount, we all have the same game. At some point guys bitching about the same things ends up being worse than any problems the game has.

Jump on the ATAG servers, I am having a blast there, minus getting shot down all the time

Original il2 was continualy improved from the start and so is CoD. IL2 destroyed the competition and maybe thats the issue for many, not having a competing ww2 cfs to say "man il2 is way better than..." empowers some to compare it to itself early in development which for any new cfs is just not fair or healthy for the genre.

Fact: Ten years from now the sim may not be "finished" (thats a good thing cause I think Silent Hunter 5 is "finished")...

Now for those that complain on the forums everyday about the same stuff I wonder why, how fun can that be? I'll tell you one thing, no matter how buggy CoD maybe at this moment, flying CoD is lot more fun than flying the forum

Wel i feel cheated BY 1C also, misleading advertising is just wrong.

I'm sure with all the fixs this pilot animation will be working great!

Brave shot pupo162, at least you expressed your views in a calm manner, but don't expect any sympathy from this bearpit. While I don't agree with you (we just have to wait) I can understand your frustration.

Take a break, come back after the next patch.
