JA2:Wildfire is one of the buggiest pieces of code I've ever had the misfortune to use. And the fact that I paid $20 for it, when the by far bigger and better mod JA2UC (Urban Chaos) is available free, just rankles that much more. Popov wasn't supporting his mod worth a damn even before the dispute with Strategy First arose. Worse yet, to essentially screw over the JA2 player community by not supporting the product you agreed to accept money for, because of a dispute between the dev and the publisher, something the players/customers are not at fault for and have no control over, is outrageous. Perhaps Popov wouldn't be having a money dispute if he'd released a stable product that lived up to its hype, and supported it as he was obligated to. Personally, I think SF is doing the right thing by not paying him. He doesn't deserve it. Regardless of reason, it's the game players that get screwed in the end though.
