Suggestions / Re: EF + Blitz = A complete Mod
« on: January 29, 2010, 04:48:25 AM »
Interesting replies. Of course some fail to see the sarcasm in my post. I don't expect groups that produce mods to ever consider the larger picture of joining talents with other mod producers because of all of the issues of human nature that I touched upon.Its just too much for folks to overcome. Wether one sees views EF+Blitz = Complete mod. Or perhaps better expressed EF+ "X" = Complete Mod. Where "x" equals some other comprehensive patch of ones own choosing.
I am glad someone has chosen to add the Russian forces to this sim. It's obvious a lot of work and effort, artistry, 3d modeling, research, and programming, all went into producing it. The fact remains, from a player perspective until or unless the axis forces are brought up to par with this Mod with new units, structure, art, its NOT a "complete" mod.
And by the way, I am amused by the comment by apparently someone involved with developing this mod that I am "forcing" the Blitz mod "down everybody's throat." Far from it, refer to my comments about the human nature aspects of those who develop mods, and I think you have proven my point. Probably by your own standards on forum flaming you might want to exercise your awesome power and ban yourself from your forum. Or, myself if you don't value honest public opinion.
I don't fawn over mods or sims themselves. Frankly, I think too many people fawn over games on these boards and "enable" poor or second rate products.
I wish you well EF. I know these mods take a lot of time and effort to produce. 10 years ago, I produced a major comprehensive mod of a very popular military flight sim from the ground up (no pun intended), from 3d mods, research, art, programming. I have been published in military aviation journals since. As for games mods, I got out of that "business" and decided other things in life are much more important.
I look forward to your improvements from whatever course you take with it and hope you find that your time is well spent;)
