You are right. However new office - new problems. Just I have external emal, not working yet network as it should, etc... We are even not unpacking completely, especially me with my couple of thousands aviation books....


And main thing.... from my home PC there was attempt of grab the very early version of BoB (without any interface and other things... ) by special spy program (probably that was done especially for this purpose and it was unknown)
Antivirus company spend two days to solve problem with my home PC.

However this spy program wan't able to grab SoW... due to fact that my home network is too slow at the moment...

In my practice it is the second such case. First was with Forgotten Battles or Pacific (don't remember exactly). there we identified from where was attempt. Now... hackers became more and more smart...

So, probably no updates this Friday.

I think that YOU are smarter Oleg I am looking forward to the big event of the SOW-Bob announcement.

I think the new problems are outweighed by the good things the new office will bring. Seems you will get more room for thing etc. That alone makes the working environment better, to have some space around you.

Sorry to hear about the hacking Good to hear they did not get a thing though! Best solution would be to keep all SoW + related stuff in a network only accessed within company, not internet connected at all. Internet on separate workstations. Sure is a bit more costly, but keeps stuff safe better as I bet a hacker could not get to your office in person..or would be dealt with pretty fast

That its why we haven't yet network here

Oleg - Any chance you can post some photographs of your new offices once you are settled in.
Maybe with a big poster in the background revealing a publishers name...
Or just a pretty blonde will do

I cannot understand why the publisher doesnt announce the release date,even if it was a rough estimate,(if SOW will be released this year or next),with tripwire interactive with the up coming heroes of stalingrad red orchestra which is due in march/april.Oleg good to hear your new office is better then your previous one

[mr71mb0]

Don't game development teams usually balloon in size during the final stage of development? Perhaps this is the reason for the move to new offices??

Being the sort of thorough chap I think Oleg is, perhaps as part of his publishing deal he stipulated that it can only be released once he's satisfied.

This isn't like EA Sports where they have annual regurgitating of FIFA Football games produced by an army of coders to strict deadlines, all mapped out in advance. (please note, I am in no way implying that Oleg and his team aren't professional or not capable of planning).
