my reaction when i make a bug report relating to air sim and then it gets “accepted” for another few months because, obviously there are more important things and/or the bug is so complex its impossible to fix obviously ( g91ys cockpit still lacking CCIP markings, F-8E (fr, maybe us) still missing cockpit eegs, etc ) :^)
im not trying to be hostile towards anyone, after using the bug reporting site for quite a while now, i have a feeling that its useless to try to report air sim related bugs on it, since it takes ages for them to get fixed, even if the fix is as simple as adding a gyro ability to a sight to give it ccip or copy pasting the eegs code from one plane to another
ah … Kuban
Remember watching Baron play the Pz.IV E on it during ground beta… and it instantly sold me
downloaded WT few months later.
:') … WT Kuban & Karelia maps are abit emotional for me
That may be true but it sure doesn’t feel that way, especially when it comes to affecting Sim.
I started a thread back in January collecting Sim related reports for aircraft such as issues with their HUD’s, MFD’s, HMD’s, VR issues, cockpit issues, and the amount of issues that has been fixed from all of those is awful. There’s well over 100 reports and only a handful have actually been fixed.
Obviously not every report will get fixed immediately but it does make reporting issues feel useless when issues have been going on for years without so much as your report being accepted.
That’s how I feel. Was making a report for the Detroit Diesel 6V53T engine noise, but scrapped it because I was looking at all the other ones around for years and have yet to be touched. Same with making suggestions for ground. Hundreds of suggestions have been made but we are lucky if a nation even receives even just 2 vehicles (that aren’t just copy paste).
that doesnt change the fact that most times when you report a bug, it seems like its just forgotten about, with no updates on the bug being made.
lets take this bug report for example:
(Community Bug Reporting System)
Reported 3 years ago
Forwarded for review 8 months ago
not only, the bug has existed for minimum of 3 years, after 2 years and 4 months, you get a response “forwarded for a review” and a silence for another 8+ months. Do you think if the same person will find a bug, will look at the first report, which after 3 years and still havent been fixed, will go and report another one? no, they will probably think its just a waste of time.
Not to mention, the literal fix is just to add a line in the skin BLK, adding a gyro sight. To add to that, the opposite is literally possible for everyone to do, ad a still sight to a gyro sight with the use of .blk in custom skins.
but i guess we need to learn to be happy with what we have - a half working sim mode with bugs, which can be dropped at any moment because aces of thunder is around the corner and noone can asure us if the mode will stay or not.
Guys. I appreciate a couple of you may have some fustations with the bug report process, but its veering far off course of what this topic is for.
If you have concens on a subject, please raise it in the applicable topic or, if you have concerns regarding a report(s), then please feel free to PM.
This thread is however the next major rumor roundup. Not a bug report venting thread. Ive answered several questions here already, but that was not an invitation for more off topic.
