Coming back after >1 year. State of the game?

You may want to look at the various “gripe” forums and see if any of this resonates with you.

Some of the gripes are legit IMHO, (like the post-apocolypse photogrammetry in places like Canada), which is (again IMHO) indicative of a basic lack of QA and/or a “ship it!” attitude.

Other gripes, (“AI doesn’t work” or “GA aircraft AI being broken makes the game unplayable :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:!!!”), are either technology driven and they’re doing the best they can w/o a bottomless research budget, or are currently unavailable, and as a consequence are less legit (IMHO again).

You need to decide what’s important for you and decide for yourself, though given the current state of the technology, I think they’re doing pretty darn well.
