In fact most of my statements begin with IMHO or AFAIK, or "as it was posted before", making it pretty clear that I'm not an oracle or feel anywhere close to it.
I must confess, though, that in response to some "I DEMAND" threads, I tend to answer in a similar way, without the 'flowers of speech'.

Your post is a great example for what I just mentioned. And pretty straight forward wrong in almost any regard.
1. There are a number of simulations currently being worked on and with a release-date kept in secret to wait for competitors to do the first move. A sequel to M$ CFS is one of them, a project from Shockwave apparently about early WW2 is another. Additionally there is a WW1-sim, Knights of the Sky possibly being released in Q4 this year.

(Not to mention other jetsims and BlackShark, who might not directly compete within the same niche. )
Now, can you post any information here about the competitors? Any link? Any Q&A? Any release date? No? You didn't even know anything about them? Then how can you think releasing information about the status, content or release can help Oleg in any way? You know, it's not only the fans watching this forum.
2. If there is anybody really wanting, REALLY NEEDING to get this game a success it's not us fans, but Oleg, his team, 1C and UBI. They are feeding their families from their hard work on the game and the success they will have with it.
3. Neither Maddox, nor 1C or UBI owe us anything, nor do they hold back information to hurt anybodies personal feelings.
