Another PC exclusive goes down the drain. Looks like consoles aren't the sole reason for the declining quality of PC games after all. And to think there was even a thread saying it will be GOTY :P

Sounds like a case of wait a year for the developers and modders to fix this and then buy.

Such a shame. It's good sim genre has seen ressurgence, so it's whole future doesn't rest on the shoulders of 1C's team. Still..horrible shame. I haven't seen a game this unfinishes since Daggerfall. And I've actualy reviewed such bugfests like Silent Hunter 5 or Disciples III

bigger realism, physics, ground action etc. Which is what Cliffs of Dover all did. The only problem is that it's in alpha state at most right now.

Looking at review, does seem they went with that "Beta test in production" mindset. Kinda feel for the european players who are paying for the game to be beta testers (check the games forum and seems to be the case).. Maybe thats why there is a gap between release dates for the US... Probably check back on this game in August or so after community finishes its thing.

Anyone who thinks any game ever made could have a chance of beating Diablo 3 for GOTY is delusional.

It's had 2 patches since that release and it's managed to double it's technical playability with just those. US release is next month and there's lots more patches planned between then and now so they were probably hoping that it wouldn't be reviewed until that release.

I stopped reading when he claimed Wings of Prey had better graphics.
