Are Ubi the Europe & Russia distributor as well? Because it seemed like Ubi pushed back the US release date a few times... Presumably in the hopes of more patches and updates.

Its more honest than the September PC Pilot magazine article that says.....get ready for this......:

"..it seems that not a week goes by without the appearance of another patch making noticable improvements to Cliffs of Dover."

LOL its been nearly 9 weeks since the last patch and over 2 weeks since we have heard from the devs. This is downright misleading and dishonest.

And they say that using AA on the videoecard improves framerates over using GUI AA. D'oh, its porked. No wonder he gets better fps, zero AA on the card is better performance than 4x in the sim any day. LOL again

Really ? That is absurd...

And I will risk being banned myself, but what pisses me off the most, is the fact that Oleg is the one who wasnt honnest with us. He is the one who let us down. He was the one making the Friday's Updates. " Trust me " he said for 6 years... He was the one giving interviews and press information. And he did that long enough so he could leave and probably cut a deal with Ubisoft so the game would still go on developpement
unless he stayed till Russian's release...
So why blame only Ubisoft and 1C ? The man left thru the back door never to come back...

Lets hope Luthier is not like Oleg ...So we can trust him to complete that sim...

Salute !

That would make Tree_UK right then, because the article is bang on.

I can't blame 1c for pushing Maddox Games for release. They had six years to produce a functioning core game and they failed to deliver. I'd have booted them out into the real world too.

No, its some of the reasons why it runs this way at the moment and why it shouldn't have been released that way. And how it affects the likelyhood of a good outcome. Highly relevant.
