Well if this is true...it doesnt surprise me with some of the comments and arguments ive read on these forums!

I really hope its not true

Sad if it is BUT he has been doing this now for a long time,everyone needs a change.
I wouldn't worry too much ,as long as the developers and programmers are still involved once the basics are down and working correctly developments will still appear.
Where there's a will there's a way ,look how il2 has been improved and given a new lease of life.
Good luck to Oleg if he does finish,maybe in time he will come back and have a renewed vigour.
Don't forget this is the beginning of the next step.

I think the man just needs a vacation. Last video I saw him in, he looked a little run down. Oleg, if you read this, take my advice. Go on vacation after CoD comes out. Maybe 2-3 months. Then come back and enjoy your masterpiece with us all online. We all want to shoot you down. I'm sure you also want to shoot many of use down too!

I agree Oleg, its easier to be a salesman...buy and sell with a stupid smile....when you actually DO something with love, perfection and devotion like you do, almost everybody will spit and sh*t on your work (or on part of your work) and have a need to say something very smart. I experienced something similar. Please, for the sake of us who are not in that wagon - stay with us. You can still do photography hehe....at least now when the sim will go out..

something for you my friend:

What an odd thing to say just before a major release. I can understand where he's coming from but I question the timing.

People are going to worry that the game's a flop or that it won't be supported after release.

Hopefully it was a knee jerk late night post, it would be a huge loss if he left the industry.

I doubt it has anything to do with the quality of the game itself its been in development for 6 years so no one will be fooled by buying this be sure, however post launch support might change a bit depending on who takes over the project.

I think this thread should be locked, people here are writing so many absurdity

I'm surprised that he has stayed so long on this project, publishers messing him around, constant whineing from forum members who are too narrow minded and self centred to realise that this is potentially the last highly detailed ww2 flight simulator that is for the gamer rather than for money.

@Oleg
Sorry to hear you are leaving, I hope it isn't true but you and your team deserve a break after 6 years of back breaking work in a dwindling genre... I hope il2:clod is a hit so even if you don't come back at least you can retire from game development knowing you have proven hard work is rewarded.

just go independant and release on steam like everyone else

its better for everyone that way and you dont have to listen to the clowns at ubisoft
