Ive played pc games since `93 as well. Doesn`t make me get better insight in why buggy games are released more then anyone else here, since the question about how buggy sh4 is, is seemingly regularily asked on several forums and occasions. I saw no obvious bugs in Das Boot game, Silent Hunter 1, (Old games.) etc, etc. But again, I did not play SH4 for a long time until I myself discovered the main flaw (TDC stadimeter). Hence, your point is humbly noted
but if you take a further look at AC`s posts here he never once critizized the lack AA and all that eye candy which was seemingly promised, and in fact, me neither, I was just merely pointing it out, and specifically said it may be corrected by anyone ?

I donno about other`s, but my DE stays right here no matter what. But still, a point to be well taken, the game devs did promise some AA unless I am mistaken, and as far as I know they DID promise higher in-game resolutions. But that does not bother me. Allthough would be nice to have
If alot of people, by some reason(s), don`t buy the game, and SHIV sales goes down as much as 55% of the original anticipation of the Dev`s, I wouldn`t say they shouldn`t stop patching the game, on the contrary, I beg to differ Sir, I`d say they have a rather large OBLIGATION to take a look at what is going on in their game dev offices. But again, my humble opinion
The people you seem to call cry babies and graphics/eye candy lovers, are customers just as you, with a different point of view then your`s. I think that`s indeed NOT what differs Silent Hunter fans from wine glasses. In total, Off topic, I wouldn`t say it`s a good idea to interpret different people`s well deserved right to sceptisism by calling them complainers and cry babies.. Alittle On-Topic again, I dont know about others, but calling some new forum member a ****(W/E) or **** (W/E) Just because he cancel`s his pre-order until further information, thus he get`s the bad impression of the game. I Would be calling: Aiding to the problem of which I believe you so nicely put as: Hurting the dev team. But then again, I am far from being an expert, let alone an analyzer. So do feel free to correct.
S! to all and have a good day.
