To quote Jim Dalrymple: "Nope."
Besides, it's quite distasteful.
If, to some, it comes across like that, let me say: That's not my intention.

What I'm saying is, for someone's who, obviously, wants this game to be known,
he's really alienating a lot of people with all the delays & excuse after excuse.
That's what I'm saying.

This game is making "Half-Life 3" look like "Angry Birds"!

Okay pal. You may not think that you are personally attacking this guy...but you are.

With one-man Indie Games you have to be very patient. The dev has a life and responsibilities too! He may say that there was a release date for X day... He also has a life to deal with. You can't expect him to make every single deadline. Some of these projects go on for years and years. Deamon has been working on the Imperial U-Flotilla Game for forever!

If you want a speedy release of a new Indie subsim game, this is not the place to complain. Take it down a few notches. Okay?

And if this project isn't satisfying, why don't you start your own or follow a different one.

Thanks for all your replies to these three posts.

I'm reading this but I doubt it is a good idea for me to reply especially because the important answers are already done by others. I don't want to waste time starting a flame war. I hope this kind of discussion won't continue here.

"Flame war" ....?
Did you just say "flame war"?!?
What am I, in Junior High?

See that part up there?
The part where I had to repeat a sentence written in plain English?
The part where I say that not only am I not "flaming" you, but that how non-productive that is?
See that part up there ....?

Here's an idea for ya ....
Offer a firm & honest ETA!!

What doesn't seem to be getting through to some people is that
I'm N-O-T "demanding" you make a fast game.
I am N-O-T "rushing" you.
No ....
What I am saying is please stop giving date after date, then offer excuse after excuse ....

Your last alibi is moving & renovating.
Because, y'know, changing residences & completely remodeling a kitchen
are 2 things that just happen spontaneously out of nowhere.
Oh that's right -- they don't ....
You probably knew around Christmas that you were gonna have to do all that stuff,
yet you still offered a March 2013 release date.
That is, after offering December 2012/January 2013/February 2013 release dates ....

THAT. IS. MY. WHOLE. POINT.
If the game'll take 5 years, let's say, then fine -- let it take 5 years!!
All I'm asking is that you say that up front!
Don't say XYZ date when you already know that that date's nowhere near even being remotely realistic.

For example, right now.
March 31st, 2013.
What release date are we looking at?

And here's another prediction -- we will see "Faraway" before we see this ....

Happy Easter, everyone!

Judging by your post #93 I'm thinking it is quite possible.

WOTA running inside a real Type XXVIIB Seehund

, too bad I had no finished seehund 3D interior to make this picture more funny.

I've took a lot of pictures of the Seehund on monday to build the interior based on them.

Anyhoo, back on topic.
Another quarter has come & gone -- and this after an absolutely carved-in-stone promise
that it'd be submitted to Apple for approval [see what I did there?] by February
at the absolute latest ....

Add to that, there's not been even so much as a progress report or a news update.
I guess he must be really busy working on the game, huh?
Yeah -- that must be it ....

Okay buddy. This is a one guy project. Not a whole Dev Team.

You need to simply shut up and quit complaining. It'll be ready when it's ready.

This guy has a life. This guy has obligations. This guy has to sleep. You, sir, need to calm down and wait. No matter how much you complain, it won't be done until this guy has enough time to finish it.

Mod, could you please teach this boor some manners?

And I am not an idiot!
My Mom says I'm special!
And on Sundays, they give me milk.

OK, now there you have a very valid pernt.
And it is because of this self-same pernt that I shall refrain from commenting
on this particular piece of vapourware ever again.

Good day, Sir.
