Oleg leaving game development (CoD)?

[Wolkenbeisser]

Oleg

I really hope you stay with CoD. I saw already too many good projects dying (not game industrie, but banking) because key people were not recognized, or because their projects were not trendy enough. Usually people or firms like U*I, which are able to "kill" such projects with their behaviour, have NO idea of how good the project is (or was)!

So please, don't let this happen. Keep on fighting for your project and ask for support wherever you can (I have nothing special for you to help, but if I can do something, let me know!)

It's great, what you achieved with IL-2 and it's great what's coming to us with CoD. Many of us pilots got interested in aviation because Il-2 is created the way YOU wanted it to be!

Please throw your sorrows with U*I behind you for some time and take a break. And then, after that, come back and you'll find solutions for the problems around.

Many thanks to you and your team, in the name of Jagdgeschwader Albatross (12 Pilots regularly flying IL-2 since 2001!).

Great job!

Best regards from Switzerland

Well Oleg, I don't know if you will read this.

I'm very sad that you've left the project, not because the development will/wont stop, but for losing one of the very few people that believes that shallowness of the world of games / world in general. I can't express all the things that i'm thinking at this moment, only to give you MANY THANKS!!! for hours of fun, for tons of new friends that came flying IL-2, and for the hope that someday, someone can make the difference.

A very sad !!see you later!!

Has Oleg actually confirmed he has left il2? It's still quite unclear to me.
But what a shocker - a week before the games release to throw about this uncertainty. Certainly does not inspire confidence
