Now if you tell me thats not a bleedin shambles then i dont know what is.

Thats exactly what you'll get with an UNFINISHED sim, so many aspect of the sim are not going to work until they can be finished. The lead developer who is still probably the owner of Maddox Games has hired Luthier to run the day to day aspects of sim. I don't doubt for a minute that Oleg is totally pissed with having to release COD UNFINISHED. Oleg would never have released the sim , unless there were no other alternative. The money dried up and the only way COD gets finished now is if sales are good enough to continue development.

Continually calling the development a "shambles" or any other derogatory word will only have the effect of driving away sales. Calling the sim "Unfinished" while adding that the developer is still working on the sim may help sales. A few of the more negative people say they'd like COD to be finished but their actions say otherwise.
