Very disappointing attitude and response. The feature itself, since I do not have the game, I cannot comment if I would miss it. But the attitude? I certainly can live without that.

Deleted from my Steam wishlist.

All I can think is that the some country's 'professional' military such as the People's Liberation Army-Navy Store has started buying up the commercial/hobby game to train it's personnel instead of springing for the military-grade sim version costing thousands more and this is the response.

I'll vote with my dollars. Another company crossed off the list of future purchases.

Yep, agree with all the follow up posts....developers will obviously do what they want...I have no problem with consumer vs professional versions, but don't agree with removing features from bought products even if I don't use it.

Just not a model I will continue to support...

Retroactively disabling features seems...underhanded.  Don't own the game, not my company, don't really care.  Just another reason in my books for people to get off the computer and play tabletop games.

Amen brother. Devs need to realize there are many, many places for customers to spend their gaming dollars.

I have become very leery of buying games from companies that also support the game, or have hopes of supporting the game, with a military service.  They quickly become fairly dismissive of the retail customers.  Frankly, I am not sure I would ever do it again looking at how eSims operates and Command seemingly heading in that direction.

I have to agree with your assessment based on the attitudes I've seen on display here from the primary members of both companies.

Wait til Herman Hum hears about this one.  He has been pretty quiet about Command for a while now.  Some part of the internet is blowing up.

Surprisingly at the official forums, haven't seen any discussion on this.....either folks missed it in release notes or they actually don't care,

Does in POTUS D. Trump's America a military used air/navel simulation that is owned/programmed by a Greek, a Norwegian, a Brit, and only one American and is a LTD registered in London registration pdf  has a future anyway?  :buck2:

Frankly, the only people left posting are rivet-counters.  As I predicted a couple years ago, the game is going so far down the path of painful granularity, that it might be overwhelming people.  Just read the database addition threads.  People are asking for things that most likely make no discernible difference in the game.  I bet 90% of the requested units never see the light of day in a scenario.

If they are pulling out features because they are spending so much time detailing out the visibity of a pilot out of individual aircraft, its lost.

It's not just money, but probably the more valuable commodity of time.  Only so many hours in a day and lifetime to spend. 

I'm sure people enjoy and love the game.  I've enjoy ARs AARs from time to time.  Anyway hopefully it works out for everyone.
