Luckly we have Google Translator!

SP!
Copy that. And agree. More or less

Still it is up to Ilya where he publishes whatever he wants to publish (basic common right for all of us)

You and I may call it a wrong 21st Century communication's strategy 'cause we are much happier with English than Russian, complain about, it erase CoD from the HD and never buy enathing from this company. We can do anything we find meaningful. (basic common right for all of us).

If I were Luthier I would have let info out exactly the way he does (sometimes in Russian at a Russian forum since the market there is huuuuuuuge. Sometimes here 'cause this is the official forum). No problem.

Luthier lives in Russia. He has friends in Russia and I'm sure he can be contacted directly in most instances. If you lived in Moscow you might even walk over to the the developer offices and have a few words most anytime, if you didn't make a nuisance of your self.

Luthier shares information here very quickly so don't be disillusioned about not getting the full story. We are getting constant updates and patches, along with information.

Nothing changes for anyone unless we get some kind of technical explanation or a patch. (even in Russia)

I think Luthier (Ilya) actually lives in California. In the age of the internet, you don't have to live in the same country that you work in!

Luthier has lived in California, but I think his home base now must be Russia. Personally I could care less that they post more in the Russian forums. We get the important information in a timely manor. Plus I get a kick out of the English interruptions of a Russian Post, although peoples interpretations of the English forums are sometimes just as funny.

I understand he is US citizen that has family in US and learned game programming US. He moved to Moscow working on IL2 and COD projects.

He speaks English and Russian.

This forum is owned by 1C. If you are an 1C employee (I am not talking about luthier's level but rather if u r an ordinary programmer) you do not want your bosses to fire you because you said something what they consider wrong on the official forums.

Unofficial forums like sukhoi or simhq are the places where you can express personal opinion only.

It is logical that no one wants to take risks in the time of the financial crisis. On the official forums you can get only sterile official information.

That´s a good idea!
I´ve already hired a russian language teacher (photo). We´re going to make an exchange. She will teach me russian and I´ll teach her how to fly IL2-COD. I think it will be a very rewarding experience for both!
