I am not going to read through all the 'where is BoB' threads because there are just too many and it's clear there is no answer yet.

BUT, what is so difficult in Maddox and UBI getting together and giving us an update from time to time? There have been so many posts that even if there were a launchdate I haven't seen it and it's not in 'Oleg's answers'.

Don't tell me about commercial secrecy or whatever - it has been too long. It is no secret. As someone said, another product could jump out of the woodwork after such a long wait and take interest away from SoW.

Many years ago I watched EA destroy Air Warrior while it ignored it's customer base. Later I watched Aces High keep it's customers waiting for over two years for it's much vaunted Aces High II which didn't deliver on it's promises and many of my friends moved to IL-2 as a result. Both resulted in loss of customers due to poor handling of the situation.

What I am saying is it doesn't do Maddox/UBI any favours announcing a new product and then keep us hanging around for over three years without keeping us informed. It's ridiculous.

And yes, people are going to rant about it here because here is where they come. This is 1CMaddox's forum. It is up to 1C Maddox to pick up on these issues and take them to UBI, it isn't for us to chase around after UBI and do their job for them. I have been as patient as the next man over this but it is becoming farcical.

All we want are regular updates.
