I´d like to quote myself again, since I think that it covers pretty much everthings said here...some ppl should calm down again and take a deeper look into other things than DCS development.

 

If I may say somethings to this...so I´d like to compare the situation and the dev Team with...lets say Visceral games (Deadspace 1 and 2) also known as EA Redwood Shores.

 

They delivers Deadspace 1 on October 20th 2008, Deadspace 2 came out in january 25th 2011, makes round about 2 years and 2 months ( if I haven´t misscalculated).

 

What will that mean?

Well it means, that a developer team with a great Publisher in the background and a focus on simply one story has created 2 games in roundabout 4 years (devtime for DS1 included)

 

We got Blackshark, FC2 and Warthog nearly in the same timeframe. Not to forget BS2 and the products they are under development right now (Deadspace 3 is not even proved to be created at all...there are simply rumors)

Next to this, ED is also developing software for the military market. So the focus is splitted on 2 markets on the one hand and developing hard core simulation software (which can not be created better by other devteams at this time) on the other hand.

 

Also besides this, ED is selling their products to a more than fair to be called price. Comparing the pricerange of Deadspace 1 and 2 and the ED products we´ve got a market ruling developer, who does not take benefit of the fact that they ARE Ruling the market. They sell the software to a price, others would do for just an Addon.

 

We all should keep the ball flat and should be thankful to ED that they are providing us their software in that a close timeframe and to that a small price.

 

That might be a blast in the ear of the one or other, but really see the fact here.

 

ED is provoding information way closer as other dev teams are doing. ED is providing Software in way closer time frames than others are doing. The only problem is that we cant see that.

We dont get any info for a few month and getting mad about this. The usual time for update informartions is several years before any new info comes out (mainstream games dev teams)....OK exept Treychard and the other Team, with their CoD Series. But come on...Call of Duty is nice but I wouldn´t waste money for this...I buy these games when I will get them for just a few bugs from second hand games store.

 

ED is really on track. I havent seen this before as well, but considering all the side arguments, ED is really doing a great job in a acceptable time frame...and I am very sure that once they finished all the core thingies, side prodcuts, we´ll get the modules in a closer time distance than today...

Ok, i'll spell it out, for 3 posts now you have been trying to make my point without noticing it, that's what's amusing. ;)

 

I'm glad you are amused, oh great one! sorry but I have other things I did instead of looking up signs that try and make me seem smart.

 

You should have looked it up ;)

 

= ... assignment, ie x = 3 does not mean 'x equals 3' it means 'I now make the value of of x to be 3'

== ... equals. x == 3, a logical question, evaluates to true or false (see the difference with the above?)

!= ... does not equal. Another logical question, evaluates to true or false

 

This comes from programming languages mostly. Colloquially, just as we do in math, we use = to represent both the = above and ==.

 

I did look it up.....didn't feel like reading it. However I'm not gonna look up every stupid little geeky thing I see in here. I don't know programming and don't plan on learning it.

Dear sir, may i kindly direct your attention to the brick wall you are about to drive yourself into? :)

 

Why, are all the moderators with little to no knowledge of the business world going to gang up on me and repeat points that would be laughed at in a board room?

 

There's a reason you're full time mods and not in business, that much is clear ;)

[Conure]

Martin Luther King Jr was right: There is indeed nothing in all the world that is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

 

Indeed, arguing opinions about the development of a flight simulator on PC has proven rather dangerous. Excuse me whilst I go and translate the skills learnt here to racism and sexual assault....

 

Nice one on a huge exaggeration.

[GGTharos]

Waiting to see your successful flight sim co.

So what you are trying to say is that ED do not know how to run a business and that you should be consulted if they are ever interested in running a successful concern.

 

Correct?

@Conure

 

can you please descripe in just a few words, what your actual problem is/was, I missed that somehow since you seem to complain about everythings, thx.

[Cali]

Excuse me for assuming that you know elementary school math. I have learned my lesson and will adapt accordingly when adressing you. My sincere apology.

 

 

 

Ok, so you had the time to look up the page but not to read one single line? That actually makes a lot of sense. Oh wait. ;)

 

 

You forgot to add another "d" in adressing. or maybe that's how it is in your world. Yes, I looked it up, but why read something that I will forget in a few minutes. Why is there a certain group of people in here that feel they have to use codes/symbols/act like they know more and other things to make themselves seem better then others? I wonder what they are lacking, maybe they didn't get enough love as a child...maybe they needed more hugs, parents didn't think they were smart. Just think, we are all beautiful and smart, some more then others. :D

[RIPTIDE]

Excuse me for assuming that you know elementary school math.

Why didn't you just tell him what it was? BTW In elementary school math it won't be shown as !=. Not in my day it wasn't.

 

Quit the BS. :)

Lmao, know that would happen, but there is a reason why. I didn't learn that when I went to school either many years ago either.
