The waiting is killing me!
« on: June 04, 2002, 09:35:50 PM »
Knowing that HTC has all these planes for the new patch has created alot of excitement for me.  However, (dont go flame-crazy on me) I would rather have a new plane every month than a patch with six or seven planes every 4 or 5 months.  Whats your opinion : Big patch with a few extra planes every 4 months, or a little patch with 1 plane every month?

I rather like waiting 4-5 months for new stuff.  Then I know it was done right, and its fun waiting for the new planes and game changes.  IMO if HTC released a new plane every month most people would start to take it for granted and began to place unrealistic expectations on HTC.   Waiting is half the fun, every 6 months its Christmas.

The big patches are spaced too close together.  It should be 10-12 months between the big drops.  HTC drops too much too soon.  He has spoiled this community.  If they gave us a drop every 10 months and then gave us one at 8 months once in awhile, we'd all be happy.

Anyways after a big drop we have to listen to the whiners on the BBS on flight models, bullet drop, damage models, wrong fuel comsumptions, too many rivets on the right wing, tires are not Dunlop,  canopy is not dirty,  and on and on.  Lets just enjoy 1.09 while we can.

Two weeks.  It's always been two weeks.  Two weeks in the past, two weeks in the future, always two weeks.  What is all this garbage stating six months, etc, geez!  

TWO WEEKS!  NO MORE, NO LESS, ALWAYS TWO WEEKS!

Construction professionals have been using the term "two weeks" for thousands of years.

Yes "two-weeks" goes back to pre-historic times.

Actually, it took God longer than 6 days to create the world.  It took about 2 weeks.
