Hence, I've made the proposal that a small online meeting (via IRC or whatever) would sync both 'sides'. Or just writing an info post and clarify the stuff which is discussed here again and again.
If they don't intend to get back into the commercial market in the foreseeable future and they can't/want help by allowing more modding or providing SDK to improve the NSE than just communicate that clearly.
BTW: Don't know if I'm alone with this opinion, but I think the main issue with this sim is not the lack of platforms but more the NSE and -especially- its AI/mission handling - at least if you don't play multiplayer. I've invested much time this sommer trying to improve it via the doctrines but unfortunately the behaviour (dependent on the platform type) is so intransparant and buggy that it is just not possble to achieve a satisfying solution IMHO. It was frustrating to be honest  |
There are some valid points in here ... first of, I'm right up with you on the communication issue or actually the lack of it and an online chat would be a nice thing, however feasible only with a small number of people otherwise it prolly would end up in a way nobody wants. A better alternative would be an actual clear and unequivocal statement.
As far as the NSE goes I think we will run into a brick wall ... one of the reasons being the lack of development for "our" version compared to the "goverment" version and the most likely resulting problem of transfering the achieved fixes. And face it, obviously DW didnt make enough revenue to justify continued development which is why we are without a new patch for so long. So I highly doubt we will get a fixed NSE (which I would prefer over new platforms) and since the NSE is integral to their government product I don't think we will get a SDK to work on the NSE ourselves.
I dont wanna squash any hopes its just my point of view on this situation.
Bottom line, I do hope we hear from SCS soon ... one way or another.
