I think with DCS it works a bit like this:
Buy module in beta >> Module lacks context because of (lack of missions, no specific theater, lack of era-accurate adversaries, dumb AI, no DC etc...) >> Module is buggy >> Bugs are sometimes fixed >> Module still lacks context >> Buy another beta module to soothe boredom with previously bought beta module >> Repeat cycle.

Yes, and ED/3rd parties have no interest or incentive to finish the modules they started because they already have our money.

RAZBAM aggressively continues to improve the M-2000C, and Polychop added a separate helicopter model to their module free of charge. And that's only what we see on the surface. I'm disappointed with VEAO and Avio, but I won't tar all 3rd party developers with the same brush.

The average naval aviator, despite the sometimes swaggering exterior, is very much capable of such feelings as love, affection, intimacy, and caring. These feelings just don't involve anyone else.

Yet the two examples you have given are some of the most recent and still aren't complete so not quite out of the woods just yet. Time will tell on those modules to see if they left incomplete like every other module out there.

The M-2000C also has a very good campaign that will come out with the final release.

I will give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to his DCS module, but all of his FSX models are practically worthless with absolutely no support whatsoever. You can only blame the simulator for so much, but it gets tiresome when something that needs to be fixed by the avionics coder and the coder just comes back and blames Microsoft for poor coding when it works perfectly in a similiar aircraft made by said coder.
