Friday 2010-10-29 Dev. update and Discussion

From the way I have seen suggested by Oleg, max graphics won't be available because as new hardware comes in, the graphics get better and better.
However, I wonder if, like in Il-2, max-settings can be achieved (e.g water=4) with this value being able to increase as new hardware 'improves' the graphics.
I can imagine SoW might have a similar system in this way to Il-2, as Oleg's motto seems to be "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" and Il-2 is, IMO, really user friendly.

Anyone can translate the bottom details?

From what I can deduce it looks like Spring 2011 release date?

As you can read in the "Release Thread"!

And because it's a Russian speaking site you think that makes it more officious?

И потому что это русских говоря сайте вы думаете, что делает его более официозный?

Or maybe in French

Et parce que c'est un site russophone vous pensez qui le rend plus officieux?

Sorry guys, no one knows at this point.

[philip.ed]

I agree, take it with a pinch of salt

It is not the language, that makes it more officious, but it's name. May be, you didn't notice a large letters in the left top corner of it, saying "1C-SoftClub", which is a game making division of 1C. It's where Oleg gets his salary, BTW. And this is their completely official web site.

OK. It will be a bonus if it releases Spring 2011...

What if it releases within the next month or so?

Whoops...

Our prognostications are meaningless. Oleg is working on it with vigor. He is probably changing target release dates once a week (in house information)

You can bet he will release ASAP, five plus years in development. He will also release a sigh of relief we will hear across three continents. LOL

Now, who the hell is Vigor ? Since when is this guy working with Oleg ? Why would this guy decide when the game is released ?

Official. Officious is bad.

officious - intrusive in a meddling or offensive manner; "an interfering old woman"; "bustling about self-importantly making an officious nuisance of himself"; "busy about other people's business"

Is Igromir really that unfamous?
I can't find any information about it on any wellknown gamesite.
