I have the awful taste that they have played with us all day long. A single post saying "sorry guys the new version isnt ready" would have made things ok. Now I am **REALLY** pissed off.

Really ,after Pyro's post on News forum I was SURE that today we'd have the new version. Well I see I was wrong...

Well, this isnt that bad, gorf...I never have been involved in Wb, but the stories that I've heard tell terrorific things about it   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

My guess is that 1.2 was really scheduled for today...but that something messed in the testing, or something like that, delaying the release.Note they arent in the Arenas, and that there is no new of HiTech...maybe they found some bug and they are cleaning it.

I dont mind it isnt released today (oh ,man I lie awfully   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)), but I really mind that they have given us no clue while the hole community was holding its breath...I really expect a bit more information next time, because I'm losing my health at HUGE steps   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

dinnae pyro say that if something was going to delay the release it would be left out?
And that they were just working on small finishing details?

Oh well... maybe next week

Guys, it's one thing to joke and nudge them because we all want 1.02 out asap.  It's quite another to start squeaking at them because you have to wait a day or two.  The only thing that is going to accomplish is make it that much less likely we'll get estimates on future date releases.

Can you seriously compare waiting a couple of days for a release to releases that have taken months or even years to come out?

Take a deep breath, relax, and be happy they didn't force out a bug ridden version, and keep checking ever 5 min like I do.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

Agree 100%. I'd rather wait 2 days than see a buggy 1.2 version.

But, still, they could give us more clues...(I am still reloading the page each 2 minutes!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif))

I'm actually a bit agitated (just like everybody else) about getting no news today about when version 1.02 will be released. I want to be able to download it really soon (like this Friday). And I'm not even a subscriber for online flight yet, though I'm still on my two week trial. At the least, Pyro could inform all of us on the expected date of release (what ever it is) just to make us all feel better. So we don't have to keep accessing this website multiple times a day just to see if version 1.02 is in the download section. It looks like we have to wait another 2 weeks!

I wouldn't normally get into a thread like this, but it hits me a little close to home right now.  Anyone with that even glanced at the WB's fourms last month would show that I am involved with AH because of IEN's simple refusal to be open and informitive when I asked simple questions.  I finnaly got fed up and left. To say I am alarmed by what I am seeing today on these fourms would be to put it mildly.
Am I mad about it? Not really, Just a little courious.  HTC should be quite alarmed by the ammount of enthusiasm shown by it's customers over this relativly small upgrade. I would hope that some damage control will be effected soon to keep us informed.
I would also like to point out that Friday is not the 'last' day of the week.

My guess is, there bustin their butts right now tryin to get this thing out the door.

Hitec hasnt been on at all today, neither has Nate, or pyro. And to be even more curious, they usualy fly on fridays after work..Till the Texas clock chimes midnite they still got a change to crank it out today, remember a few releases back? when it popped up at about 7:30pm?

I dont think they would leave us hangin all day and not say a word if it wasnt comin out. Chances are there just finishin it up..

Keep the faith

Seems that HiTech just announced that new version will be up in 30-50minutes

I knew it! they said nothing and that wasnt normal on HTC staff!!!

C'mon guys.. kiddin an all is ok; but I'm sensing some serious aggravation brewin.

They no doubt wanna go home to thier familys and such; and are most certainly all stuck there with their noses on the grindstone doin the best they can. Lets cut em some slack.

Just cause WE don't have lives dont' mean they can't have one.

Give 'em the time they need without the bellyachin... and lets have FUN teasin em; and not get totally anal on the poor bastids.

Hang

Read my posts before, man. I stated all time that the only thing I didnt like (and I STILL DONT LIKE) is that they gave us NO clue about the release. And,if the release wont have been today I'd have had the feeling that they'd have been playing with us, watching all of us being here holding our breath. Please read my posts well or shut up. Thanks.

I know, Pyro...we are a bunch of whiners and me the most. I only want you to know that I am proud of being here...and that I think VERY high about you. Maybe we have taken bad habits (you have so good customer support that when you cant do it, then I whine)...

sorry. <S> for 1.2. I promise to keep my tongue stick in the following times.
