[Mr Greezy]

They're working on MULTIPLE things. Just because they posted something clearly just meant as a fun new feature that's more of a bonus than something crucial, it doesn't mean that they're not working on the other stuff.

All that sarcasm and negative posting isn't helping anyone. Come on, we're all on the same team. They're busy making the game that you want to play. Why pay them back with spiteful comments?

Remember: We asked for updates. We said, "anything, just give us something!"

We'll get the "hey guys, we fixed the AI, AI-comms, performance, etc." at some point, but hey, if we get some playable flak or some new ships in the meantime I'm cool with it. That doesn't deserve a reprimand.

Words carry weight. I'm assuming the PC flight sim crowd, one that's primarily past the teenager stage, understands this. Flaming and trolling belong on some Call Of Duty board, not here.

Stay positive! Yay! Happiness and rainbows! Shaking hands, smiling faces!

For heavens sake. Please just release a patch with improved AI.

At least then the game becomes slightly more enjoyable offline.

It's not a major part of gameplay for sure but it does give you the chance to have a pop at them.

If it's designed well they'd let you jump from area to area to follow the action too.

This was (is?) a very popular opportunity in the MMPG Aces High. As you say, when you need it you can use it and its adds another dimension.

S!

In Aces High manned ack and AA vehicles are still a big part of base defence. The only problem I see with ack implemented is the too fast movement of it when player controlled. Aces High has it quite nicely done, you do not turn and aim in an instant as it should be. I tried to be the aimer on a 23mm Russian AA gun and boy was it hard

Graphic motor has a great growing potential

There will be a collision model for the trees long before the developers ever advance the series into combined operations sims.
