Kick UBI to the curb and sign a deal with STEAM.
S!
problem with steam is your stuck with 3rd party software which when it goes wrong , screws up the hosts game. Just look at Race 07, hardly anyone online because steam is screwed up all the time.

STEAM'ing pile of **** if u ask me.

Would be much easier for 1c to create there own online lobby like hyperlobby but better. it is not much code, only a few weeks to a month programming for 1 developer with access to all the info.
I been running Steam since Jan and have experience only one problem not connecting. Never heard of the game you mentioned by the way. The same could be said when HL goes down unless you want to use ASE which I do not. I doubt 1C is ever going to publish in the USA which is where a large portion of IL2 online players live. A program such as Steam is a very effective way to get the product out to the masses and still secure it from piracy and cheats. You obviously do not like the software and of course you can not please everyone but it is much better then anything UBI has attempted. It also one of the few 3rd party distributors and service that mags such PC Gamer rate an A.

S!
