This Parrot is Dead!

[Snowdon]

Just be honest guy's this is going nowhere right? TFS says bugger all, I complain (in silly form) TFS delete's my thread. 

I'm starting to believe those that claim VR was only ever promised to increase Tobruk sales, prove me wrong people!

I am sure the OP likes his fun, and Monty Python is always a good fallback when you lack imagination... but his claim the work on VR is simply a marketing ploy is not correct... as anyone in the VR Beta group can confirm... work is detailed, comprehensive and ongoing, with the goal of implementing VR in the game.  That, and the many videos released demonstratng the use of VR in the Beta is the proof.

 

Yes, it is taking longer than we might hope, but we have every intention of releasing an update which will allow VR to work in the game.  (along with the other elements in the Visual Update)

 

Thanks for everyone's patience.

oh and your "updates" feel like this 

[BOO]

Im not the most ardent of TFS fans out there. Not by a long chalk. Still, Im not sure repeated "prove me wrong" threads acheive anything. 

 

As for this one - save for the addition of two gifs, its not so different from your previous so will prolly be gone soon enough for repeated content alone.

 

I get the frustration, coms are appalling and the bunker mentality of TFS is infuriating sometimes. And you are right, sometimes those updates do have that feel of "look-it moved".

 

Theres a new Beta out so clearly there is some progress to be tested. Whether that translates into moving forward I dunno. As for VR, its clearly real in terms of the ambition to implement it and theres enough 3 party stuff out there to prove, to some extent, its been done. So I doubt VR is a cruel con ito boost sales.

 

Ultimately you will sadly have to accept that the respose to your "prove me wrong" is likely to be "cant be arsed".

I think that things maybe changing. There have been a couple of developments recently which have made even cynical, negative old me see a different attitude potentially prevailing. I'm far from a fan of the lack of communication, but the release of the new beta shows that some blocking issues have been resolved. Whether that translates to a release any time soon I can't say, I haven't an inside track on what still needs to be accomplished yet. My gut feeling is that we're still quite some way out which is extremely frustrating given some of the previous comments and estimates.

Fine I agree there is some movement, But far too little and waaay!! too late for most. 

 everyone I knew personally who even knew Clod existed in the first place have long since dropped off or in some cases died, I'm the only one left of a once decent flight hanging around the forums hungry for any positive movement, lurking, skulking, generally malingorous (LOL) 

 

such is, maybe I've got to much time on my hands pining for old friends and lost dreams. I could also be mad or telling the truth, only time will tell.

 

on a final note I think only relentless prodding will jog them to answer

It’s a part time dev team.  If you were expecting more than what you’re getting, then you were expecting too much.

This last beta patch seems to have made great strides.

There is no way to know what those "great strides" might be. Maybe the "special surprise"? ?

Oh yay special surprise!!!

[Dagwoodyt]

Screenshots and testimonials have long since run their course. If any new videos are planned they need to be oriented toward demonstrating progress toward Visual Update release (then vs. now). ?
