So now that the publisher has been introduced is the release date up to them?

Interim germany 28 march, i think some of us are hoping for announcement today, you never know,oleg may say 2 weeks

Oleg probably wont say anything, it's down to UBI to announce and that still hasn't changed even after the leak.

I thaught it would be UBI I hoped it wasent but hell i am still going to get it and as they said then bash the bosh...and sh*t (If you watch Armstronf and miller you will under stand that)

I saw that too but i tought it was a fake. I prefer the Bob:saw title btw, I think it is more striking....oh well I' ll just put on Eric Johnson when I'll install it :P

(Ubi please don't F- this up >.<)

Does anybody still believe to release dates of online game shops? Not backed up by any official statement? OMG, that's really wishful thinking. On my side I'm like St-Thomas, I will believe to a date when I will see the DVD on a (even virtual) shelf.

My advice: enjoy the 4.10, explore all the new functions and novelties, and wait for the 4.11 with 6DOF (I hope!), mates. Il2 is still a top-notch flight sim, anyway.

Nobody believed the release date posted, as thats ALWAYS subject to change. What was exiting is the credible info on the name change, possibility we could see the sim early this year, and rumored announcement next week. The name change has been confirmed by credible sources and Oleg has confirmed the official announcement next week.

edited to read "this year".

I'm not too concerned about the BoB DRM, I'd be happy with online activation, and I don't think they'll require always on (if they did I'd be mad). But I wanted to buy Assassins Creed 2 this christmas, and I didn't because it STILL (at least 2 weeks ago) requires a connection every single time you play. That's an improvement on what it was, but still not good.

What? You're excited that we could see it early next year. Wow, you really are a pessimistic fellow.

oops its already next year, lol

Oleg pointed out several times that it's not his decision but the publisher's. Not sure how one could read that differently, all pretty unambiguous.
