Patch 1.1.0.8 Delayed

[cichlidfan]

We should be okay as long as ED is full of sinners, tomorrow is only supposed to be the rapture so we have 155 days left for them to patch it and to enjoy some cockpit shadows. I suggest everyone here go out and sin tonight and we'll have a blast these final months :thumbup:

 

Hope UPS has enough sinners as well then...they have my Pro Clip!:noexpression:

I can wait, no problem.

Thank you, as always, Speed. The Producers are to be thanked for making the good calls, the devs for working without sleep, and the community for it's understanding. We're all (ED and Community alike) lucky to be part of such a great project. I'm excited about the future!

 

 

Me too! Two words: jet packs.

[baton_bb]

Easy! Simply We get better game. So far I think the version 1.1.0.7 is very good.

 

Best regards!

removed by me. light hearted jokes don't play out well I guess.

 

Wow AND Matt called me a drama queen, are you serious!? Christ, there goes my stand-up comic career.

 

edit: that last sentence was a joke. I'm not intending on being a stand-up comic.

+1.

 

I uninstalled this morning, in preparation for a fresh reinstall. Shame it was delayed on the expected release date.

 

ED is punishing us for one reason or another, I just know it. :cry:

 

I dont think that ED is punishing us , i guess that they want to release a patch that works.

So we all dont fill up this forum with moans of why it didnt work.

Now you do not need me to confirm that that's an erroneous assumption, right?

 

 

Edit: What rextar said - It's not Rocket-Science.

You don't need me to confirm I was joking, right? Obviously I'm not assuming software developers and testers are disciplining, nor would they ever be able to discipline paying customers. I thought that went without saying. :doh:

You just did.

Castle you'd be surprised what vitriol people have spewed in previous occasions such as this delay. It's not your fault others have made ED calloused to some types of comments :)

Yes, yes, and yes! :thumbup:

 

And just because you're too modest, I'll echo Speed's comment of: A big thank you to the testing team, too! :D

 

And I also want to add another one: thank you to the families of the devs, for putting up with their tough work schedule and not locking them in the basement to keep them at home instead of working on DCS! :smilewink:

I´m so excited and I just can´t hide it...

God damn it... Now I can't get that crappy song out of my head. :(

[arteedecco]

You're not the only one. It's pretty obvious that there's a bright future for ED and us hardcore simmers as well.

Yeah, seriously. I am SO thankful that ED took on the hardcore arena. I love A-10C and am so thankful for all the detail put into it. I admit, I love doing the startup procedure! There is something entirely satisfying about learning to master a complex aircraft and all of its various facets.

 

I also really like the model of continual updates. You will succeed by staying a part of the community and keeping up the regular updates and interacting with all of us. There are too many games that got created, a few patches later... poof... the end.

 

I LOVE MIL AVIATION!!! I LOVE REALISM!!! THANK YOU! :megalol:

[genbrien]

haha I'm glad they delayed it :D

Working all week-end + half week (72h in 1 week:music_whistling:).

So when it'll be release, I'll be 1 week off :pilotfly::smartass:

 

I love karma:lol:

[Wolf Rider]

 

I think it's not a shame at all they delayed the patch. Otherwise we'd all be tripping over some annoying bugs.

 

This way we will get a clean patch a little later. I say "Thank you ED for your high quality standards! :thumbup: "

a big +1

[MustangSally]

Looking forward to it.

[Ozz13]

This is how great video game (sim) companies are born. Support it post release and make sure it's right before you release patches. Kudos DCS! :D

[Frostiken]

Not to be Debbie Downer but isn't it kind of pathetic that we're praising a company for, you know... having QA?

 

Are things really that bad that *not* breaking your game makes you an awesome developer? :)

 

Allow me to say what we all really felt when we first read the thread title:

 

"GOD DAMMIT."

 

I want meh shadows :D

 

(Actually I want my new graphics cards first...)

Frostiken you dont half post some crap:mad:

[Frostiken]

Frostiken you dont half post some crap:mad:

 

Didn't take long for someone to blow that out of proportion and totally misinterpret it... but really, just step back and read the posts, people act as if this means that they're squashing bugs that the patch will introduce, or they pulled it to pack it full of free cake or something. It got pulled because the installer itself didn't work, plain and simple. I personally really don't care if it's delayed or not (argh, shadows!) - I can be patient, because software gets delayed all the time, both professional and amateur. It happens and nobody should harbor any ill will towards ED for holding off a week to make the patch actually able to, you know, run.

 

But jeez people, the patch didn't work. It's not like they had a lot of choice in the matter and I'm sure they wanted it released as much as we did. But heaping praise and acting like the patch is going to be any different next week just sounds a bit... daft. In the end, the installer will function as it was intended, and the patch as it is today (sans installer) will be released next week. Not a big deal.

Personally I don't care when it finally gets here as long as it's right :)

 

In the meantime it gives me more time to learn what is very new Sim to me, get my HOTAS Warthog control useage 'instinctive' and have FUN at the same time..... :pilotfly:

Mallet;1203320']Just hope the dude that preaching the end of the world on saturday is not correct :megalol:

 

Meh it's a load of old ... anyways. How many times have we lived through what was meant to be the end of the world?

 

I'm glad they're holding off on the patch, not many dev's do that these days. They substitute payed testers with the customer and I'm glad ED isn't like that.
