Should be a no-brainer, and I'm not much into conspiracy theories; my comment wasn't entirely serious anyway. Then again I still remember how Ubi non-managed the release of Lock On, and that was 8 years ago in which the market has only shifted further away from PCs (which made up 1% of Ubi's sales last year). I won't rule out that some not-so-reasonable motives come into play here and have some decision makers treat this release as an unwanted stepchild. Speculation of course, but not without precedent.

And no, I certainly don't care for the cover either, but there's no reason to produce something that looks like a bug in Photoshop ;)

Honestly wish this game would release so all of this bickering/nitpicking/speculation can just stop. I know i'm complaining about complainers, but jeezuz, I want to come here for some insightful information and I have to sift through so much bull $hiT just to get some.

Okay I'm done, sorry for that, but these forums are a bit of a joke sometimes.

If you really think the whining will stop once it's released, then I'm afraid you're in for a surprise... this is just the warm up - welcome to the internet! :-P

You're right about the whining not stopping, I actually felt silly writing that, but was too lazy to backspace on my iphone....:rolleyes:. Glad you called me on that, because it's probably the farthest thing from the truth anyone could ever say heheh.

Anyway sorry to have singled you out there with that post, only the first part was for you, the rest was in general.

:)

Another marvellous find ppl will complain about for several pages!

As it was stated before, the biggest, inherent flaw of this cover is that it shows spit scoring a 109, not the other way around, as it supposed to be.

I might add, as a form of consolation, that you don't really need to care about cover if
y o u b u y t h e g a m e v i a . . . S T E A M!

Hope you're wrong.

Isn't that a Focke Wulf 190 on the cover? Perhaps they couldn't find a picture of a Hellcat in time...

When I fist saw the picture I thought this as well, round engine, rectangle shaped elevators, but didn't commented since I had sleepy eyes, could've been mistaken:grin:

True.
I'm really pissed they force us into steam - but since they do, what benefit do I get if I buy the hardcopy?
None.

Made me decide to go the download way, not from steam, though.

Looks a little that way but since it's a spin off of the previous cover leaked, it's a 109.

ha ha. Brando - good point...not personally sure what underpants were like back in them days but you're right, who cares about the box art.

:grin:
