Marc D, I'm not an angry customer. I am simply calling it as I see it. My opinion is that this board, it's regulars, and the customers of OOTP in general are being reduced to "second-class citizens" so that the game can be marketed to an entirely new and different market. I am merely trying to voice my disappointment with that. As I stated above, it would be nice if we were at least given the illusion that we mattered. The vast majority of core customers for OOTP7 are right here, not in Europe and definitely not reading FM the magazine (I apologize if that is not it's correct name). Is that fact just not being recognized?!?
If we considered you second rate, we'd have wanted this forum closed down, everyone shipped to SIgames and be done with it. We haven't, we don't want to and for the considerable future we wont! You matter, you matter a lot.

Markus has started work on a feature list, which includes new features and improvements on previous OOTP versions. Do you think that if we wanted to give the illusion this was a totally new game we'd do that. Of course not, since you are all so important to the success of the game, you need to know what the new features are over and above what you have purchased in the past

The magazine issue is probably never going to suit, we have requirements for the printed press and having our own magazine suits us. AS I tried to explain, we do our best to get exclusive shots and the like to the site.
