RAZBAM A-7 Corsair II TacPack Edition

Not open for further replies.
I'll do the same this morning. Zsolt, plz what address did you contacted for an answer to your request? Because nobody ever told me!
But it is true that they will trap me ever after this. And the "pre-order mode" becomes unbearable. It's so easy ...
 
I am still surprised that nowhere on the product page do they mention that it is pre-order product...
 
The Tacpack enabled A-7 was released as a Beta yesterday to those who had pre-ordered. I have been flying her around a bit and found that she is pretty sweet. (Watch those engine temps though!) On trapping I have found that a +3 to +5 degree nose up attitude is required to continue living. I wish that I had a real SLUF pilot to consult though!
 
Soooo, the announcement of the pre-release was done on November 8th last year and they released it as a beta yesterday.

In the meantime they held on to most people's money. I guess they and their bank must be laughing like hell! Not delivering for months but entitled to the interest all the same.

Good business model there! :D

Johan, I don't think the Zambranos were laughing a lot over this. According to their FB, the project got delayed due to internet outage and family circumstances. And yesterday they posted: "Pre-release/beta has only 100 seats and they are almost all taken". Given current interest rates I doubt they will get rich from this, maybe just enough to pay for a meal at McDonalds...

Hi Henk,

I'm the first person to give in to family circumstances, primarily because I don't have any family left. But internet outages lasting 6 months in the 21st century? Sorry mate, that is hardly credible.

During those exact same months they have been developing and releasing stuff for other sims.

Also, interest rates in the States are higher than in Europe, as you well know. Okay, they did not make a bundle out of this, but decent customer service and communication are the least that people who upfront money for something can and should expect.

This is of course just MHO and a result of my over-developed sense of justice.

Take care,

Johan

If I am correct Razbam and Zambranos are not in the State's. There located in S.America and anyone in S.America will tell you depending on where you are, a long long internet outage is possible. Heck it happens in Arctic Canada from time to time, when I lived in NWT, we blamed them Albertan Construction Beaver's lol. We are a strange and wild Hemisphere lol.

They have been so cut off the internet that they have posted youtube vids in January, February, March and April:

The facts are what they are...

If posting vids on youtube is possible, so is sending out emails to your customers.

Johan you do forget that Razbam made a statement early this year where it was decided to postpone the release due to the required development changes for P3D TacPack, this with the required P3D V2 changes. This to make a single installer. You must know this will take time. Other issues, Internet and family related is just a thing happen in life. If it happens you can't avoid it unfortunately. Your impatience is more shrouded with disrespect, and not with knowledge.

Cheers,
Hank
 
When people wait over 4 months for a reply from them, that is disrespect? Yeah, right. When we order something and don't hear from anyone connected with Razbam, we have a right to be concerned about what happened to our hard earned money! And don't care where they live.:livid:
 
Legitimate, there are people who get their product for free, it is easy to criticize them
Receive free, because they are "testers"
When the product is full of mistakes! So what are they tested?

Disrespect is when someone takes your money and leaves you waiting for over 6 months without any news whatsoever.

BTW, Impatience? After six months waiting without any news whatsoever when the same people do find the time to post video's but leave you in the dark about what happened to your money and the stuff you wanted to spend it on? That is a joke, right?!

They could have chosen to inform their customers, but chose not to. Now that doesn't inspire confidence nor patience for that matter.

Another thing: addressing people like you did to Zsolt is low and insulting. Neither Zsolt nor myself resorted to that kind of language, you did. I think an apology is in order here.

Cheers,

Johan
 
Please read this very carefully

Gentlemen,

With a growing interest I have been reading this thread. I notice some members have ordered something which was expected to be delivered early this year. I can fully understand those who are in a bad mood about the fact that it wasn't delivered until a few day ago. But that is something which is between Razbam and those members and not among the individual member here. So please behave accordingly.

So when you think you have a reason to complain, please do it towards razbam at an e-mail address you can find in a few posts earlier.

A fine example of disrespect is to disallow people to have a personal opinion. So I allow everybody his or her's personal opinion, but please be very careful how you express this opinion.

Thanks,
Huub

None of the buyers or people who were treated badly by Razbam have insulted members. The people from Razbam on the other hand saw fit to make derogatory remarks towards members of this site.

Doesn't the staff of this site have a responsibility towards it's members?

Doesn't a site by for and from the flightsim community have a responsibility towards the community that supports her (financially)?

Or can devs and their croonies do whatever they want to?

I'd like to have an answer on that question Huub.
