Ok.. I think I understand why developers are not allowed to post updates as they want because they are bound by a contract with the publishers. But one thing I do not understand is the erratic way that updates appear?

At the beginning of this forum Oleg said, that he hoped that updates would come "every 2-3 weeks or so". I think it has been a little longer than that this time :-) Would it not be in a contract how often updates could be posted by the developers? And would a contract not contain what content was allowed to be showed? Or are contract not that precise and only specifie the rough outline of what is allowed?

And are developers not allowed to tell that it has limitations regarding updates put on them by the publishers?

Just curious to how it all works :-)

AFAIK from Olegs statements and infact I already linked or quoted to most of them, UBI is having the control over the informations being released. Of course Oleg probably hoped to be able to post updates every 2-3 weeks and would like to do so, but the reason it doesn't happen is not due to the fact that he doesn't care, likes to torture us or stopped the project in the meanwhile.

No, it's most likely he even hoped for permission to post updates here, maybe especially with the reasoning, that 1C is publisher, too, and this is their board, but from the facts we have I guess this was a clear negative from UBI (again), at least concerning substantial news on the project until they officially announce the game, which they didn't do yet.

So, in a sense you are perfectly right. It very likely is in the contracts how updates are handled and as it was posted from official side on this forum: No official statements until UBI allows it. So the number and frequency of updates is ZERO.

1C already stated that it is that way, Oleg posted so before, too, so why should they keep complaining. It's the deal and at the moment UBI is the one giving the most money. And you usually don't bite the hand that feeds you by posting bad stuff about them or complaining about contracts you agreed upon before.

A typical remark from you the chief Oleg apologizer. Stick to making crappy maps.

Wipe your chin you got some white stuff on it.

Classy.

wow, your cool...I could never be like you.

And he's brave too. I know I'd be really scared if he said it to my face. LMFAO

That's what you get, when somebody fell asleep on his Tarzan-Comic again.

Xtreme low level flying here?

I guess they'll stall and hit the deck soon....

We can only hope.
