One has to wonder how and why HTC does certain things, ESPECIALLY since they dont seem to explain topics such as the Mossie. I keep hearing that they adjust flight models when concrete and legit data is presented but yet AH2's Mossie has been shown time and time again to be questionable (even with the initial corrections and they STILL have not addressed the issue.
Why do they use a retarded Mossie (baffles/speed/handling/etc)? Why do they not make public statements or sticky threads in which they reply to justify their reasonings? It is one thing to berate and points fingers at them, but when one can point a finger at official D.H. info and ask "Why" to them, there is no response. So in turn.. threads like this one keep coming up.
HTC have their own priorities and considerations. What seems logical and simple to you may look different to them, given the larger picture. HTC does tend to fix flight models, but sometimes it takes a long long time as it falls down the priority ladder.
Demanding them to fix something usually does not work. I think it even causes an opposite reaction of resentment instead of sympathy. I certainly am in no position to make any demands. I am currently not a paying customer due to, lets call it "lack of FPS". I would like to return in the near future so I still care very much about the game. If you want something changed, a better course of action is to keep it on the surface, but without shoving it into their faces. This way, when they re-prioritize their tasks or take new decisions, your issue is not forgotten. If you managed to provide a lot of the needed data, it may even help to move the issue closer on the work schedule due to less required man-hours on their side.
For the mosquito, since its problems are not game breakers by any means (the arenas will not implode because of the missing 5-10 mph and anemic elevators), it will likely see no updates of any sort until the plane 3D model gets re-done or some system wide change happens that requires checking every model. When this about to happen, it would be good if mosquito threads are still popping up from time to time. Not whine threads, but any mosquito thread will do as a reminder that people want to see this fixed: pretty pictures threads, mosquito guides, posted videos and ahf files, historical documents postings and discussion are particularly good, etc etc. Before the previous center of gravity fix (that created a new problem - the rubber band elevator control) I tried to make sure that there will always be a mosquito thread in one of the major forums (Help, General discussion, Aircraft & Vehicles, wishlist ocasionally) on the first page. This is a one event statistics, but it worked - so this works 100% of the time
Even if it doesn't work and in the meantime, we can certainly enjoy such threads.
