Sorry rugbutt, but I've been flying lo-mac since the very day it came out in the stores. I've followed the forums at lo-mac.com for YEARS! I don't need to show you or anyone else on here respect. I finally signed up on here because I bought Flaming Cliffs.
I have been listening to the complaints of flight sim addicts for years and I really think it gets out of hand. These valiant russian developers are doing a phenomenal job and yet the "fans" are almost never satisfied. They whine, whine, whine about the littlest things. And, as anyone who has ever followed a computer game before knows, NO program is bug-free or perfect in the initial offering. ED has shown themselves to be 100% committed to this game. They will release patches as the game is improved and bugs are fixed, just like with any other program.
To delay someone else's fun with Black Shark because the helicopter ducting fans have a few too many rivets is not only crazy, it's mean to those of us out there who are not perfectionists!
That said, I sure do hope they get the new trees up and running. The old trees really won't cut it for a helicopter sim...
