Once again I want to point out that a lot of your earlier anger was misplaced. Actually, our colleagues at Ubisoft are extremely interested in making this game a success, they care about our opinion and yours, and everyone we work with there is understanding and cordial and more than willing to listen and change their mind.

Having said that, I'm glad to announce that the debacle has been resolved.

We will be making the filter optional, however turned on by default. And we will be adding a large epilepsy warning to our splash screen. I am almost certain that this update will hit the steam servers on March 30th and thus seamlessly make it onto everyone's machines when the game is installed on the 31st.

The March 30th update will also address some of the issues reported with the Russian version, but we'll provide more details with the patch notes once we know for sure what it'll contain. Obviously, we need to test the heck out of all the changes to make sure we don't introduce any new bugs while fixing the old ones (the team's favorite past time lately as it seems).

So there! Do a happy dance, I know I did.

I never realised Luthiers english was soo good

I knew we all could count on you guys. Maybe it will take a bit of time but in the end COD will be awesome and the best combat flight sim out there.
cheers to all of you

Well said. It's been bordering on hysteria around here lately.

LOL

I am new here since about 4 weeks ago.

It has been like a zoo at times.

I'm sorry, but I do not believe a word from this.

Luthier, can you please officially confirm from UBI's part that not only the anti-epilepsy filter would be removed, but also that there won't be any individual anti-epilepsy modifications too? And eventually officially confirm the removal of the already introduced ones?

Because if not, then removing the antiepilepsy filter will only solve the extra crippling FPS introduced by it, but the game's graphic realism will still be crippled, compared with the russian version.

UBI might as well say this now in order to protect its initial sales, but I won't believe a word of it until I will see it with my own eyes, that the graphics of the russian and western versions are the same.

PS:

you fools, UBI thrown that statement, as a bone to chew and be silent, to us exactly because of this "hysteria" as you call it and all the cancelled pre-orders and 1C bought versions by westerners. Do you really think Oleg and Luthier haven't tried to make them understand and give up with the stupid idea? IT's just UBI didn't cared about it, and was only stating it will do it now, after they were forced to. I really -really hope they will also do it, not just say it before launch..

Great news to wake up to!!!...so logical

Excellent, news of the day.

Though I must say this thread is Not Safe for Work - my reaction to Luthier`s statement reflected on my coworkers` faces while drinking cofee. I had to find some fake explanation.

Can`t wait to fly theses things. CE ofcourse.
