OK Feurerfalke,
If what you say is accurate, I concede your points. I thought Oleg was out from under Ubi-shaft. Apparently I was wrong about that. So we're all like the Maytag repair man. We sit and wait. At any rate I'm glad I was never one of those to howl and complain about any mis-steps made by 1C. Don't want to endanger my chances at being selected as the winner of the 2008 "Prince-of-a-guy" award. :D
keep on truckin!

Good points
 

I had hoped that Oleg was more in control of the information coming out about this game, but it makes sense Feuerfalke, that UBI has put a lid on the updates because of legal issues.

Can't believe that some people would sue the makers of a game just because they did not include a plane that they wanted. But that also makes sense if you read some of the posts over at the "UBI zoo".

Still would like a small video. Just to make the waiting time pass a little quicker ;-)

Well, the downside of the informations usually is, that the time to the release grows even longer, because you finally want to PLAY it. :grin:

That's why in the history of IL2, but also for other games, like GhostRecon, Rainbow6, SilentHunter, etc. UBI always put a hold on any information until a certain point, just to start a massive campaign when the release was in reach (maybe like less than 6 month away).

Considering statements that were made here and in the Zoo, I'd expect some similar strategy for BoB.


I guess one major reason for that is the treatment of the all-mighty-self-proclaimed-premium-customers, who really think they can *demand* something, because they buy the game... Thank you very much... not...

to quote Ben Grimm: "well brush my teeth and call me Smiley!" By which I mean the realization sinks further in that such a video is more a pipedream than ever now. :( I guess I can't complain. I bought IL2_1946 even though I don't have a 'puter to run it on. Maybe SOW will be out by the time I do get one. ;)
