1C Company = Russia/Eastern Europe
Ubisoft = Western Europe, North America, Australia, etc...

1C is not going to spend time talking about delays in the American market when it is Ubisoft who are in charge of that and have all the info. 1C is a distributer/publisher, not the developer (even though they work very closely with them). Maddox Games are the devs, and they post on these forums which causes a little confusion over who whey are. Luthier might hint about delays, or reasons, but he will not outright say Who/What/Where/When/Why because that is not his job, and legally he is not allowed to leak that info. All info pertaining to the North American release is the sole responsibility of Ubisoft and to a lesser extent Steam since they are distributing the game here. If 1C were to make decisions and statements about the N. American release, they why bother having Ubisoft involved in the first place?

1C Company explaining why CloD is being delayed in the N. American Market would be like Apple America explaining why Chinese customers have to wait a month to get their iPhones. It doesn't work like that, and if it did there would be some royally pissed off people in Apple's Chinese dept.
