They didn't make a choice to release the game in the state it was/is, they were forced to release it by 1C. And they were forced to add Steam by 1C, which set them back even further.

You must bear this in mind.

Yes, I know this, after a development cycle that put most modern games to shame -except Duke Nukem Forever, StarCraft II and Diablo 3- they were forced to released their brutally mis-managed piece of software out the door. I don't blame 1c for this, they must have the patience of angels.

If the devs comment on the current situation today or in the next days I would really like to know if the patch contains the updated sound engine.

What about the incredible new sounds which makes the game so alive what luthier stated quite some time ago.

True, the 6 years Oleg had to develop CLOD, plus the 2 Luthier has had have not been enough time to have a working product.

So did I, it's 0 degrees Celsius outside, wind is blowing and it's snowing, think I'll sit in front of the old PC for a while more.

The only thing that makes me sad and annoyed is that 1C team spent so many manhours programming trying to make a new "lighter"(?) or "more efficient"(?) graphics engine because ATI and NV did not have powerful enough single GPUs at that time, because sli did not work and because so many people complained about "why does CoD not run on my Pentium IV 2.0GHz PC".

Had this amount of time being spent in further developing and correcting the open issues, we would have been much better off today.

Well they found a lot of code errors so there was a lot more to it than just that.
