Do you know what a circular arguement is?

Requests for information are valid. Veiled threats and baseless insinuations when applied to a video game are nothing but funny. Well maybe a little sad too, but mostly funny.

F.

After reading through both my post and MoMoney's post I have failed to locate the "Veiled threats" that you speak of. Are you sure you're ok? This is just basic reading comprehension. Now after reading the entire thread again, I have noticed that you seem to have a complex about ppl asking questions, and your responses to the matter, have led me to think you have some social issues.

...So much so they my move on to a bigger better gun range...

You hope that HTC will respond to save their customers from fleeing, and MoMoney hopes they will post to prove nothing is wrong. These are the tactics children use. Coming from adult video game addicts it's immensely funny.

You guys are lots of fun. Are you having as much fun as I am? I certainly hope so.

Foot stamping about a video game is down right hilarious.

Inquiring about a product I pay $180.00 a year for I do not consider foot stamping over a video game. Not anwering a question about your product in ANY business is taboo. I mean, if you make a special place on the BB for an update and then refuse to field any info, you should expect such a reaction. It's this kind of arrogance that has made up my mind about the product. I hope it improves. See ya in Q3.

I am willing to give HTC a chance, if things are going wrong int he office with the software or whatever I can understand that. If AH2 is going to be delayed, or put off all together that would be fine with me to. Simply update what you already have on the table. HTC already has a game that works, so I would just upgrade it alittle bit. Add some new planes, like the P61 Black Widow, B25, B24, Perk B29. Add things like other models of the P38, maybe diffrent weapon load outs. Hell even things like changing the paint on some of the planes we already have would give ppl the feeling of a new plane, even if it isnt. That is one of the big reasions I keep going back to the CT arena. The paint jobs give the planes a diffrent feeling.

I think a lot of people probably feel as you do Emptygun.

I've noticed the board gets kind of rancorous after a couple of months with no updates, news, or screenshots. And the next update is still 3-6 months away, IF it stays on schedule. I know I'd appreciate a progress report, or a screenshot that conveys just how much better AH2 will be over the original.

If people are interpreting HTC's silence as arrogance then I'd say they have a problem on their hands. Maybe they're just kind of tired of and burned out dealing with the community?

Once your burned out with your paying customers, you've taken the first step toward going out of business.

There are days I hate my clients, but I still have to call them if I want to keep them, and the fees they pay me.

SImply put, you have an obligation to the customer, whether it be in technical support, or general product updates.

When you begin faltering at this, it will be easy for a competitor to start gaining market share from your client base.

Personally, a short update as to what the overall status of AH2 would satisfy me. Anything more is a bonus.

Also, did they not say AH2 would be out in the 3rd quarter? Thats about 2 weeks away. So if they are on time, this release could be out anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months, 2 weeks.

My mistake, muckmaw. You are right - 3Q begins in June. Holy cats, we know very little about a product that could be rolled out in as little as two weeks!

I have to think HTC is not even close to a rollout though. My guess is we'll get a preview at the Con.

Emptygun26 · « **Reply #27 on:** May 15, 2003, 01:41:32 PM »

Sounds like 2 weeks, is out of the picture. Proly the same goes for 2 months.

It's still very difficult for us to comment on certain specifics because we haven't got to them yet. Development to this stage has been mostly core level tech stuff. That will change as we move out of the rough construction and into the finer pieces and we'll have stuff to show and discuss in depth. It's been a bit awkward but that will change to a crescendo as move into the latter stages of development.

-in responce to lack of updates.

Keep in mind in march we were told two weeks we would have updates, I really hope the updates dont take that long to put up this time.

Hey EmptyGun, could you email me with regards to your range?

I do not know where you all get June as the start of the 3Q. Try July as the start of the 3Q and Sept 30 as the end of the quarter. We have six weeks to 18 weeks to wait
Patience is a virtue.

I love the BBS I read it just for the laughs
