Your thread has been locked and this one deals with possible solutions to address the failure of 505 to give any further information regarding the patch. I understand that you will want to reply to some of the comments made but I hope all of us will try and keep this thread civilised and focussed on its objectives.

Hopefully mate. As long as nobody strays or starts flaming one another it should be fine.

My "source" of contacting 505 didnt pay off :( unless i needs a little more time. I'll give it until monday. Time for plan B ;)

And what are you doing on this late Evangeluse? its nearly 4am!!

oops! time for bed! :grin:

Could Xbox members add their comments/views to this thread:-

http://forums.xbox.com/30851195/showpost.aspx#30851195

Please note that the forum rules must be obeyed and any comments must be your views wether you agree or not to the issue we are trying to resolve. Petitions are forbidden and the thread will ultimately be locked.

I have included the responses from Anton and his team and it is clear why 505 have effectively blocked them from communicating with us. I suggest you read it. If you have emailed 505 and not had a response say so. If you consider the thread is unfair to 505 then please say so.

I have also informed 505 that this thread is up on MS forum and provided them with a link.

I've very active on the MS forums, just not the IL2 one, as i prefer it here. Will have a look now mate.

I wonder if we have any legal options, considering we paid the same amount of money for the game and yet have received an inferior product. If we don't have any legal options, I wonder if Microsoft would.

Imagine if this same situation were to be happening with a blockbuster like MW2... there is no way Microsoft would allow it's game to be shortchanged

Maybe we should take this fight to Microsoft.

I intend to do that. If the MS Xbox thread I created gets the support I will contact them, refer them to that thread on their forum and ask for their response/views.
It may come to nothing but the more ammo we collectively dish out the better the chances of an MS intervention or possibly some background help.

hopefully someone will take notice..maybe trying to get in contact with some of the reviewers who liked the game could help the cause

If we are all in agreement for a post/letter drive I say we get this moving. I think we should come up with a list of bullet points for our letter/posts. Once we have that we will need an English Major or someone with strong grammar skills to put this together. (sorry I'm an IT guy) From there we can assign a couple of people to do the postings. (if we are mailing, I say the more the merrier, I can host a word doc online for everyone to access to print and send) We should also come up with a list of sites we want to send this to... both posts and emails.

(Here is a working list of sites I think will help)

Great positive post jkerr!

This is the kind of brain power that can move mountains (or get a patch released)

Thank you for your input!

You seem to have some major communication skills, possibly you could create the final patch "Draft" that jkerr mentioned previously (above)?

Then all of us can send copies to the selected sites to show are support.

SEE- when posting on other sites, you need to take the time and realize that your message is being heard by people that know nothing about the game, you didn't really mention the time frame upon which the ps3 got the patch and xbox still doesn't have it (about a month and a half).

Good luck on getting results published in magazines/articles/etc...

Ps.-- Lol, Gunny, nobody really tells you this, but most people that post on forums re-read their post atleast once to make sure it makes sense, it's not about grammar, it's about showing you care enough to make your message heard. Not proofreading means you don't really care enough, which is acceptable when texting/emailing girls and such, but not really appropriate in a forum sense, stop trying to appear as someone that's too busy, that's a lame excuse that no one believes anymore these days.
