TLTeo Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Way to blow things out of proportions. The only one out of that list that can be held against HB is the 2017 no exceptions post (and at the time they hadn't started presales, given production builds to press or a release build to ED, unlike now). Everything else was just idiotic hype made up by the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything else was just idiotic hype made up by the community. Of course you are right.HB can release it when ever they wish,nor they are obligated to give release date. It is not like money have changed hands..oh wait..they did. Maybe u do not respect your time or your money,but he does and i do. The date is 20th of March. I'm sure that by then we will get another announcement,of the day when official release date will be announced.

Everything else was just idiotic hype made up by the community. Wrong. Every single one of those dates and/or ‘windows’ was given by a HB rep over the years. By the way, their very own store still says F-14 2018 release: https://store.heatblur.com/pages/about-us ASUS Maximus Hero IX with i7 7700K OC’d to 4.8Ghz. EVGA 1080 ti. RAM 32GB DDR4.

Manuel_108 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) Well you are certainly not wrong, moonshot. But I guess that's the thing with software developement. It just always takes so much longer than anticipated. That is also the reason why I stepped away from preordering this time. I'll gladly pay $10 more for the Tomcat as soon as it's released.

Cobra847 Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) Is this conversation constructive? If anyone should be upset at spending another year of developer salaries to fill out the product during the course of 2018 - it should be me and my wallet. Until money has exchanged hands and you've become customers, dates remain as estimates, not guarantees. If you're going to dredge up every mistake made across 5 years of complex software development, we're going to be here for a while. I've tried to succinctly summarize that transparency leads to inaccuracy many times. In a complex product with many new elements, this will ring true every time. The higher your complexity, the worse off you can be.

Elefant1301 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Now few days has passed, Cobra, still no release date announcement ? What do ED do ?

They said they have to give personal support to the youtubers who have it already, to get the bird flying. How should that work for 1000s of people? Software development doesn't work like that.

Cobra clearly stated that the releases so far had a certain purpose, creating academic Videos and hunting down bugs, you should be happy because those realeases and bug hunting could have be done behind closed curtain till release without academic Videos...so calm down and play somethings else or learn how to use the HARM with the Hornet or even better...go out for a walk.

Jumbik Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I have to wonder how a good news after a long time can still make people depressed, angry, irrational ... why, how, WTF. How one or two weeks more can make any difference here after several years? Just sit back, get a beer, or something and relax, watch some movie, read a book, anything...

chembleton Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 A few people need to get away from their computer a bit and get out a bit more. Life isn't all DCS ffs, just as it isn't with the developers. No one forced anyone to pre-purchase (I pre-purchased). A polished product, even in early access needs to be right.
