If you want to have news, regular updates, movies, WIP-stuff, Dev-Diaries, advertising-campaigns and stuff like that, you should post it on the UBI-forums, not here. Oleg and his team program this game, UBI-Soft is the one responsible for everything PR related, including approval and denial of informations being released by others.
Can you verify that Ubisoft is still the publisher for the western hemisphere? Got link? I don't know but the 1C/Atari co-publishing deal must have put some gravel in the machinery I guess. There was for sure an agreement with Ubisoft regarding SoW:BoB as the only official press release is from Ubisoft, and it SEEMS to be excluded from the Atari deal. Very little public information is available so I can only guess that everything is not as it used to be between Ubisoft/1C/Maddox Games. By the way, as you seem informed - can you explain the financing of this game. Who pays for the development? Ubisoft, 1C or Maddox Games themselves? Who has a deal with who by the way? Are all the international publishing deals going through 1C or does Maddox Games have a "loose" relationship with 1C. Who really owns Maddox Games by the way?

Regarding the claim that all information is channeled through the publisher and their web site, what is really the deal with the images and information in this forum from Oleg? This is the only information that has been released the last year and it's not avaliable anywhere on the Ubisoft forums... Why? Why does not Oleg post there instead if the business agreements between the developer and the publisher is crystal clear and everything is nice and dandy?
