I prefer to wait for a solid, comprehensive and bug free release myself.
I do get the anxiety of seeing previews, the promise of a new release, and wanting that new product, and how that anxiety can build when things go silent from the devs and target dates go missed. I dont know how many of you are big time FSX fliers, but we went through a bit of a debacle with PMDG's NGX release, it was horrible.
I wont bother going into the details of that experience, but with that all being said, I say that anxiety is a far better thing than that utter annoyance and let down when the product finally does come out and it is almost unplayable and you then spend weeks if not months waiting for patch after patch after patch to get the thing right.
If the 2007 version is any indication, this development is in good hands. The screenshots show they are bringing the game more into the modern fold, it will be expanded. Yes the wait is hard, I know it. I would love to see version 2 out just as much as the next guy. But in the mean time, fly the missions in 2007 again. And again if need be. Or try the 'other' space sim out there to get your fix.
Be please, be patient. The NGX experience is perfect for understanding why it is so important.
And besides, I would rather have the devs and testers and the like all busy on working on the game than having to moderate spats here. Not saying there are spats here, but....things can get out of hand in such circumstances.
