How about a quick note from the devs that they are alive?
 

I don't know if the devs have ICMP filtered in their firewalls but a response to a ping request would be nice ;)

Just a quick message like:

"Hello! As there seems to be quite some speculation regarding our current situation we just want to say that we are still here everyone working hard on something we cannot tell you about yet! :)"

Depends on if you can ping back in time, pre oct 18th. If so then you might get an answer.

...---... ;)

It's not speculation. Why else do you think you get thread deletions and no answers?

If the negative speculation were true, there wouldn't be any reason to delete threads, why bother, negative speculation doesn't hurt a development that's already dead. Negative speculation "does" hurt a development that still has a pulse. Unless its just the moderators deleting posts with no direction from the developers.

You doubt this?

What is happening ?: Confuso:

This thread is being deleted and becoming another of the threads that start and stop, don't get answered and then someone else comes along, thinks they are starting a new topic...and we repeat the whole process again.

Del Amitri summed it up nicely:

"Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before"

This 1C Company is a joke.

Just that. Bye!

Nice news update over at the Rise of Flight page if anyone needs a bit of a lift. ;)

3 2 1 poof there goes another thread.

Well - I'll see if I can push a ping at twice the speed of light then ;) Bend over Einstein, we are on an important mission!

They will do it ASAP.

well, you've changed your tune......

it would be great to know that they are still working on this project
but unfortunately this ain't true
this project was a mess from the beggining and thats were its gonna be...you like it or not..
on the other hand i.m suprised that there are still people here that are begging
for some fixes patches and news about COD
wake up..
play and fly with other projects untill they found a solution with the community first and with the projects if they want to make some money in the future

with regards
Salute

The mods here? You mean those in the midst of their epic power-trip? No doubt about that...

Or, second possibility: I, for one, welcome our new 777 overlords!

Wish I knew what was happening

It certainly is interesting...

Why would the mods care about speculation as long as the posts weren't insulting. I didn't see alot of insults being thrown around in some of the speculative threads, that were deleted. That said, I still believe there was some input from IC, to delete any negative speculation threads atleast until the decision is finalized on the future of the development. I don't think the decision has been made to cancel the development yet, as word would have leaked to the Russian forums, and there would multiple links to those Russian threads in these forums.

I agree, I wish the devs would give us a monthly update, since 2 weeks is the forum joke



but if one really looks at it, they don't owe us even that (extra communication). I wish they were like 777.

I wish Oleg would come back.


What they do owe us is a worthy successor to IL-2 and BOM which goes above and beyond what CLOD is.

Heck maybe they are going for the surprise route. It's easy and requires no effort other than what they are doing currently. They keep quiet, and in a year or two they release BOM (hopefully it works and has features).

No, I love this sim, and the dev team is good.

I'm talking about 1C burocrats.

I agree, they don't. Although given that COD hasn't lived up to their or our expectations, and we are relying on the sequel to improve things, a tiny bit of communication would be nice. Even if it was just to say: here's where we're at, it's too early to give timescales on the sequel but we're still working on it. We'll be back in 3 months with another small update.

You try to find out. They infracted me for making a true statement. I wonder all the time...

???

I see no infraction of any kind.

Link?

Someone must be home ...I politely asked a similar question a week or so ago ( very politely I might add..) and had the post deleted by one of the editors...so someone must be at least looking at these posts from time to time...I really wish Customer relations were better- more sophisticated...or have a few pics from BoM from time to time ...sigh...

what?!?

There is nothing new there!

I see nothing deleted just this thread you started last month.

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=35307

Unless 1C are deleting threads without trace we only soft delete so we can look at each others moderation decisions
and keep track of reported posts and PM's etc so there always a permanent record of deleted posts for scrutiny if another moderator needs to help.

:)




.

Oh yes, they are indeed being deleted and if you can't see them, there must be a higher level censorship at play here.

Its thier forum they can see fit to with it what they want.

I would imagine what was deleted was harmful speculation and the usual garbage that follows.


:)

.

Many had as much harmful speculation as speculating that they had harmful speculation :lol:

Those aren't always accurate. I have one on my profile for a "hacking attempt on the forums" which is a complete fabrication.

I'm not saying it's you, Alpha, but at least one of the moderators here is completely out of control.

I doubt a moderator would make up a hacking attempt story. You may not have been trying to hack anything, but something the moderator was seeing at his end pointed to a hack attempt. Shyte happens in software. Your saying a moderator is completely out of control could be just as wrong as your hacking attempt accusation.

Oh, how nice of you for publicly posting my history! You're truly worthy of being a mod here! Always neutral and polite!

The second to last (date-wise) infraction was in a Rant-Thread about the last patch and was something like: "Yes, and this is the final patch. Be there when more things get fixed in BoM for just a small price" - I don't remember exactly BUT there were definately no inappropriate words.
The last one was just a re-post because it was deleted and because I've cooled down a bit now.

C'mon 1c. If you can't be bothered speaking to your customers at least release the tools to allow others to have a crack at fixing this game.

You never know - you might actually sell a few more copies if it is improved by others!

Hang on, your the one making up stories of infractions you never received, I show that it wasn't true and your upset because you were caught out ?

Too many are here making false accusations I'm just clarifying the situation, you don't like it don't make false statements simple, there are forum rules about that.

It's no wonder posts and threads get deleted when this is the quality of them.

Now can we all just take a deep breath I'm sure 1C are getting near a BoM statement soon.

Now where's my Christmas list............Dear Santa, please add coop mode to the gui.......please get 1C to visit thier forum...........

I have asked in our moderators forum if contact has been made today, see what happens.



PS

We (moderators) just ask that the forum members show some restraint in speculation and false statements to avoid deletions/infractions.

Peace to all.

Thxz

:)

at least some should've read it while it was up and posted (yay for your "practise" of deleting everything that could get 'nasty', btw). People know who's right, no worries.

P.S.: Thanks again for posting my infraction history! That really made my day!

Only you Redroach can see your infraction history.

Sorry Alpha--I just never saw them after posting & just assumed.I apologize...but I sure would like to see some news from time to time..

We all would :)

Sound of tumbleweeds blowing across dusty highway...

DEDA post on suhkoi yesterday:

http://www.sukhoi.ru/forum/showthrea...=1#post1934734

Who is Deda? Is he a worker in 1c?

afaik, he is not employed directly but is helping the devs with the FM´s...

really, i heard he makes videos, but hey ho......

Deja vu anyone? feel like ive been teleported back in time 2 years.

Is deda's word more reliable than other third party contributors such as Foobar and Ivank?

Foobar? don't see him here much

He still comes in from time to time. Never seen Deda here before though. Never even heard of him until a couple of weeks ago.

We just have to wait, we certainly have been practicing that for years now:-P...just remember what luthier said so that we don't creep him out.

"I cannot talk about the sequel until the official announcement, sorry.
Do want to add however that the occasional rumors that pop up around here simply mystify me. Why would anyone go through the trouble of doing all that? Lame and so very very creepy."

"Do want to add however that the occasional rumors that pop up around here simply mystify me."

Do keep the punters informed, and that'll surely result in you getting much, much less mystified.

Exactly.

A game floundering around your ears, and releasing a re-assuring banjo video...is not exactly uncreepy either.

...cake and eating it...?

The wait is over - Announcement of the game "IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad"
Closed :)
