Hello all,
OK, I'll admit I don't frequent / comment on the forum as much as I used to, but I'm still generally checking it a couple times a week to see if there's anything new. Today much to my surprise and just by chance, and I would have missed it had I not been paying attention, I see this screen pop up very briefly (and then go away), that says something about a new V7. I'm like, huh? So, I go to the news / announcements section, nothing there AT ALL about this V7, not a single post or mention of it. Then I go to the general discussion section to see what I might learn and about 15 posts down I see a few mentions of it but not from the folks who run the show here. WOW! Can anyone explain why so little (and nothing really official on the forum anyways) that has been announced about this? It is a new release after all! Furthermore, navigating around the site takes you around and around in circles which is very frustrating and I finally was able to at least find out what it's going to cost me to upgrade from V5, but I'll be dammed if I can find anything else that covers new features, which version of Windows it will work with (in my case Win 7), and I fear I may be making a much larger investment that the require $269 entry fee in order to keep up with things.
We've seen a lot of issues and complaints as of late concerning the ability to download, complaints that the forum doesn't work half the time, and now this no announcement of V7 thing is just another example why I upgraded to V5 and then in my opinion things have went downhill, that or the folks running the show really don't care as long as we put up with things and buy. That ain't how it works for me, sorry.
Honestly, I'm about done with Hauptwerk and will stick with what I have until it quits. Perhaps by then there will be a new player out there. I'll roll the dice and take may chances.
Regards,
Marc
