I feel like Alan Shepard in that movie "The Right Stuff" when he is waiting to be launched into space and keeps getting delayed. He even has to urinate into his space suit. After a while he just says into his microphone "Let's light this candle." When July 19th comes around, please light this candle or I will have to piss myself!

The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.

It can't really happen can on July 19th can it? Considering the sound was going to take months surely they aren't going to release it?

I'd like to state that "Right Stuff" is one of my all time favorites, perhaps even under the top five. Really good flick.

Please let there be a sound and coop fix before release, the reviews will slaughter it if not.

It actually does! I haven't raised any of the in-game graphics settings rom the defaults yet, but it looks good and runs smooth. I'm sure I'll get some slowdowns as I have more planes in the sky. Also, it pauses when planes spawn.

By the way, it's the only game so far that makes my computer fans instantly speed up when I go into a mission.

Agreed. It's probably harder to fix the PR aspect of this game than the technical.
