http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/168-developer-diary/?p=159040Hello dear pilots! Autumn came and it means that we have reached the final part of the development. In today's update will be fixed some bugs and will be added a few new elements, they are not big and will not have a special effect on the gameplay. Today we'll give the latest beta version to a certain group of players. It will turn into release candidate after passing of process of debugging and thereafter it will already turn into release. The campaign has a lot of bugs as any soft built on random generation, it's extremely difficult to check out all the options. We'll focus on this process all our efforts now. The exact release date of the project will depend on how the debugging process will go. We'll announce it as soon as we can. At some point, release candidate will be public and you will see it too, but it will happen only after major errors will be corrected. Many thanks to all who helps us to create training videos and texts, many thanks to all who helped us in the first week after a release of the project in Steam. Flight simulator game called niche, it so and probably someone says so finding it's a shortcoming. But on the other hand this is the great strength of the genre. When the players are no longer gamers and become pilots, creating a unique community.

Exactly - there is a beta testing team behind all of this (not the internal dev/QA team)
CPU - i7-3770K @3.50Ghz, RAM - 32Gb (800Mhz), Video Card - GTX980Ti TrackIR-4, Thrustmaster Warthog, MFG Crosswind Pedals, Satiek Quadrant, Saitek Switch Panel, Logitech G510 Keyboard, Win 7 Home Prem 64bit

So when I prepurchased to play beta builds I guess that was a hunk of horse manure. locking of missions for special players, locking Single player for special players...I don't care if it nukes my install, I paid to get the latest updates. You didn't pre-purchase to play beta builds. You pre-purchased to have early access. No one told you that we'd have anything but early access.

I guess since I didn't read the EULA, it probably says that. Early Access (alpha build) which is what was being offered at the time; Seemed to me like I was being sold a product like steam early access, and how 90% of those run. That's all. Some people hate it I enjoy it. I'm just stating disappointment here, we can all put away the note pads and legal documents...

No "beta/early access" game gives you the latest dirtiest version of the game straight off the developer's hard drive. I'm afraid you'll have to get a job there if that's what you're expecting...

Not one day, more like "a day in the 1990s". One bad thing about the rise of broadband vs dial-up is that MP gaming took the crown from SP. The Jedi Master
