Seriously, it‘s kinda funny. I haven’t been mad for even a secound during this early access period.
Why? Because I knew exactly what I had to expect. When I read about wip stuff from ED I think to myself „neat“ but I won‘t automatically expect to see these features any time soon.
I mean, what‘s the alternative here? That ED never released the Hornet in the first place and postponed the release until 2019/2020? I would have been sad if they took that approach.
People just underestimate how long early access periods can take. It‘s for avant-gardists and it requires some degree of patience. But that‘s the thing in our modern times, nobody is patient anymore.
However, I haven’t purchased the F-14 yet. One early access module is enough for me currently. When the F-14A and B are bug free and fully functional with all the selftests, weapon modes, systems, damage model and all its bells and whistles included I‘ll buy it in a heartbeat.
