That's literally like one or two divs being off by 1px in IE6, but the customer definately wants it to look perfect in there as well or he isn't going to pay up otherwise. Takes ages to fix without breaking it in any of the other gazillion browsers. And yes, such retards still do exist today, those are very common actually #hardestbuckingworstpaidjobever

 

 

 

Same here... just that I didn't have my rig around in the holidays rdlaugh.png

 

Just one note: Winter is not going to be in the claws of the Cat when it arrives at Winter Wrap Up since Winter is just over by then rainbowdashwink.png

 

And even if it's gonna be later. I've yet to see a human being actually to fulfil his or her promises, mankind is totally incapable of doing so. Two weeks is something like 8 hours at the stick for me at the moment, not too much to worry about... don't blame HB, blame real life and and the never-satisfied society you have to deal with in there dealwithit.png

 

 

We get snow into April here in Ohio, so winter is over whenever Ohio says it's over.

Considering Cobra promising everybody to notify them of the end of the pre-order in advance and the fact he just told us about compiling a release candidate, that usually needs to be checked by internal testers first, I would be baffled if they release the Tomcat this week... just my two cents.

not going to happen. he said the team will be sitting down to decide on a release date and will then later tell us when that date is. The manual, which they said would be released well in advance, hasn't even been completed or passed out yet.

I agree. I could just imagine Cobra sitting at his pc, thinking of the ways he’d like to mess with us, so I thought I’d share.

 

EDIT: In all seriousness, Cobra has been clear that he would give a lot of notice before the start of EA so people could buy knowing both the EA date and that they could get the discount. Apologies if my joke made it appear otherwise.

some people just dont understand, 21st march is the release date

 

Yeah - after reading the post about Heatblur wanting to make module as good as possible within the time they have left, it became quite obvious. HB would have probably been better off by saying that was the release date from the get go, would have saved them a couple of headaches maybe :D

 

And I got no objections F-14 coming out that date - I'd rather fly more finished module anyway.

I'm sure it's going to be an aircraft that's loved by many but I hope Heatblur will let me refund my preorder. I got caught up in the hype train and just don't think this module is going to be a good fit for me.

 

I'm not an expert but I think "caught up in the hype train" isn't in the terms and conditions when you parted with your money? Again I am no expert so.......

 

All the best.

It sounds a lot more like buyers remorse to me. The "Caught up in the hype train" excuse is what he is using to rationalize it to himself or someone close to him.

Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills.

 

If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

A lot of notice is running out. We are now at 8 weeks. :music_whistling:

More or less this... There is a hard stop deadline, and if they get it out before then its a bonus IMO.
