Good work Devs

I didn't install this alpha patch and I'm getting the feeling that 99 percent of those who did shouldn't have... - Do those 99 percent even know what an alpha patch is, I ask myself?

1) It is for those who feel really comfortable messing around with their game installation.

2) It is for those who actually read the read-me that comes with the patch.

3) It is for those who are ready to send in info about bugs in the proper format.

4) It is for those who realize that the purpose of installing an alpha patch is not to play the sim, but to take part in the procedure of improving the coding.

- I haven't got neither the time nor the inclination nor the knowledge to take part in all that, but obviously this forum is full of expert programmers who feel qualified to do it... A lot of them just hide it very well...

.....and its for those who have purchased this game over 15 months ago and are still desperate to get this game working in some sort of capacity.

2 weeks ago we were told this Frey...

"I believe however that, rather than presenting ourselves as a team that releases half-finished patches with lots of graphic issues, we should work very hard on building the reputation for making things right, the first time, however long it takes"

Then on release its a Alpha with lots of problems, features taken out instead off fixes and features added.

We were told the CTD were fixed...for alot of people they are clearly not.

were going backwards.

Yup..........for me,all the time you have things like the grass appearing in the hangars,it's woefully apparent the devs are'nt checking the content of their creations.......

Hi Guys!

Ok, I can't help myself, i have to post this:

October 2011:
Performance. We are in final stages of testing a thorough overhaul of the game’s graphic engine. It won’t look any different but it will be much more streamlined. It’s too early to say what the FPS increase will be in the final version, but it shouldn’t be less than 50%.

November 2011:
The graphics reload has finally reached a sufficiently stable alpha state. Public beta is within reach.

March 2012:
The graphics rework is basically done. The average framerate has shot up almost twice.

May 2012: The reality
Avarage fps in Black Death has shot up from about 36 to ASTRONOMIC roughly 40. Certainly no more than 20%. Minimum is still horrible 3 fps or something like that, absolutelly no improvement in minimum fps. As a bonus, I can feel much more microstutters now. The game is surrely not slowing down by CPU cause i get same ressults with CPU at 3,4MHz as well as overclocked at 4,4MHz.

specs:
i5-2500k
hd 6950
8GB Ram

So it must be joke, or i don't know, but devs can't mean this serious. It's really sad
