People bought CoD from Russia.

Actually, it's strange to see that the russian version kept the Battle of Britain name. I guess the western BoB was copyrighted, and UBI couldn't use it, so changed it to CoD.

Well, I would find God's sense of humor rather wicked, wouldn't you agree? To spend 10 years playing IL2 on eastern front without learning russian, and having to actually do it in for the Battle of Britain

Ok, currently getting the download.

I had a yuplay account from Wings of Prey, I bought 50 Yums of credit using a card and then logged into the www.yuplay.ru site using my int'l Yuplay account and spent the Yums on Il-2 Battle of Britainski. This seemed to bypass the whole security ammount thing.

If anyone downloading this.

REMEMBER.

DO NOT register the russian version on your existing Steam account.

U will not be able to register the "real" version at the same account later.

Create a new.

Everyone may know this already i just though repeating it cant hurt.

LOL! That thought made me giggle a little, I'd love to see an eventual reaction on this. How can such a douche publisher be so successful?...because they're douche I guess, kinda like Activision and their lovely CEO Bobby "Adolf" Kotick.
