Oleg has indicated several times that he can't reveal the publisher, because that publisher reserved the right to make that announcement themselves (and it's not far-fetched to think this also applies to release date & system requirements). Should Ubi indeed turn out to be the western publisher, while keeping completely mute about the game so close to release, then this brings us right to the next point:

What's the source for all this anti-ubisoft talk? I haven't had too bad experiences with them, please enlighten me..

I'll try to keep it short
- messing up previous sim releases (e.g. Lock On)
- failing to provide substantial marketing for lower profile games
- restrictive always-online DRM
- poor support ("please file a ticket")
- the NG fiasco with Pacific Fighters
- staggered releases over several weeks
- generally treating their customers like idiots
Now to be fair they aren't the only big publisher with such issues, but as long as they include their current DRM it's a no-go for me (in case of SoW - or CoD or whatever we'll end up calling it - I'm actually quite confident it won't be included; at any rate there should be a 1C version available). And if people call me a "whiner" for that, then so be it; I won't turn this into a DRM thread (we all know how that usually ends).
