I just don't like when people defend a given company even when there is no reason to, criticism can be good as long as it's based on real problems with realistic solutions (both technical and financial). On the other hand, denying/ignoring/minimize problems (not referring to anyone specifically) can do a lot of damage to the product growth.
I'd like to be pointed towards any person that argued that the netcode should not be improved. As far as i'm concerned, there was none.
I am reluctant though to see words like incompetence be thrown around by people who don't know the difference between bandwidth and latency. Anyways, i think i've had my fair share of SimHQ for another few months.
Don't worry Sobek i wan't attacking none of your directly, sometimes i make a few jokes but they remains joke (even though is hard to understand the tone over a post). I understood your point and i would be surprised if you didn't want things to get improved.
As i told, as long as the criticism is genuine there is no problem about it, however sometimes it is not or sometimes is just pretending too much (not pointing any finger to anyone).
Speaking for myself, i would say that DCS has just delivered 2.5 thus for me they have another 1-2 years of "trust" since they did a lot of work with the graphic and terrain engine. I would expect now free workforce to be spread among others critical area that are clearly remaining behind to others who has made UNDENIABLE excellent advancements. IMO no one can say that DCS has made no improvements in last 2 years, it is just that the program is not at the same level in all areas.
Have a nice day mate

Not to worry, ED have been hard at work creating cattle.........it’s not like there is anything else at a higher priority.
I think Wags is just mocking his customers when he titles this video “Making the world a bit more alive....”. How’s about putting the effort into the actual combat as a start point. Biggest April fool if ever I saw one or alternatively just someone with his head up his own ass which is why he can’t see the wood for the trees.
Perhaps someone can educate me as to how moving cattle enhance a stagnant sky in a supposed combat sim.

Ya that'd be a bugger if the making of cows took away from the development of the combat element of this sim

Nice! Two metaphors in one sentence

You think that it increases the development progress of areas that actually need it?
This is another shining example of items that just aren’t needed. If Wags can’t think of a better use of time and resources than this then nothing more needs to be said about his incompetence. If you do like the cows I assume you’ll be looking forward to goats, deer, sheep and rabbits next!
You also forgot to educate me as to exactly how this makes the world more alive......that’s even if you notice these little pixels within the ground clutter even in a helo.

Do you think there are ANY managers at ED, or is it just an assortment of devs in different rooms just doing whatever the hell they fancy. One of them clearly bloody well loves trains!

Sheep.
We need sheep.

I'm certainly glad Wags posted that video when he did. I was about to buy the Harrier since it was on sale but decided to save my money given the importance of cows over, Ohh I don't know, maybe a combat environment. I mean really, are they going after the FSX crowd with this stuff or what?

Can you make some usable thread? Or are just you happy to snipe useless ones? If you are, why are you then complaining? Shouldn't you be happy when you just got some anger out of you?

sad but true. the most trash section on SimHQ.it has nothing to do with the freedom of speech.some people pour out their private frustrations here.and moderation allows it
