If you're this angry, take it back for a refund and re-purchase it
after everyone here has said how wonderful the patch is. Slamming the
people at Microsoft is NOT going to get you what you want. You are so
angry because they rushed the product out, and now you are screaming
for them to rush the patch! What if they rush the patch and it breaks
more than it fixes?! What are you going to scream then? That they
should have taken the time to get it right? Regardless of whether you
are right or wrong about the timing of the release and the status of
the product, its HISTORY now. No one at Microsoft or TR can turn back
the clock and do things differently. They are doing the ONLY thing
they can do, which is hang out here and listen to what we say (and
respond) and have the programmers at TR work as quickly as possible at
addressing our concerns. Its amazing how people like you simply can
NOT be satisfied. You will scream and *** and moan about how long
it takes for something to come out, and then when the developer rushes
it out to satisfy demand, the next thing you see is people like you
screaming about how it was shipped unfinished, you want a patch to fix
everything, and you want it *NOW*!
I repeat. Take it back. Life is too short for you to be giving
yourself fits over it. I'm sure it will continue to be on sale AFTER
its patched. In the meantime, you'll have your money back and
hopefully we won't have to listen to any more of your abusive posts.
I'm amazed you haven't had a nervous breakdown. What software has
been released as a 1.0 that satisfied you in this area?
Good. Put on some soft music and relax.
Music is your line of work and the realities of your industry are
different than the realities of the software industry. For you to try
to say that everything should be run the way the music industry is, is
complete folly. They are apples and oranges.
Let me try again -- take it back if you are unhappy with it. If
Microsoft returns your money then your complaint is moot. My guess is
you'd rather hold onto it so you can continue to rant and rave here.
Oh please. No game is EVER "finished". NASCAR 1 went through the
original 1.0 and a couple of updates. Grand Prix 2 sorely needed an
update and never got one. IndyCar 2 went through several revisions.
Go onto any sports game site and check out the patches, roster
updates, AI fixes, multiplayer fixes, etc....I hope you're as zealous
in screaming at everyone else as you are Microsoft, or do you simply
apply different standards to them.
RETURN THE GAME. GET YOUR MONEY BACK AND LAUGH. Sheesh.
Yeah, no one else in rec.autos.simulators loves auto racing and is
passionate about it. Only you, pal.
