I don't understand all of the haters. AC18 is a bloody good release.
The marketing team at GSHQ are focused on the Rendering Tool and Revisions which as stand alone features they are huge improvements on the current solutions in the software. But there are some big efficiency gains and process improvements that are to be had.
An example is this with BCF capability embedded in ArchiCAD think of the QA and coordination capabilities using Solibri doing model checking and rule checking then sending the BCF file into ArchiCAD for your team to address any issues.
The other OPENBIM features will maintain ArchiCAD's lead in providing an OPENBIM software solution.
There are many other features that don't have heaps of coverage but will make most users processes easier.
Users need to realise the software development is similar to building a house, there is a particular order in which it is done / built. The foundations need to be placed before you can address other issues. Some of the long standing issues that I wish could be addressed I realise that, A they will never be addressed, or B they will eventually be addressed when the time is right based on development timing. Instead of complaining embrace what you have and focus on getting something good out of what you have got rather than complaining about what it doesn't have. It just isn't productive.
