Yes, there may have been pressure from UBI but we can never be sure, but UBI don't control these forums, a simple statement of fact or a heartfelt appeal to us from Luthier would have made a very big difference to how most feel about this product and where it's going.

I imagine UBI would've sued them to hell and back for breach of contract/industrial sabotage (or something). And with every justification. You can't have UBI trying to promote and distribute a game whilst the developers are simultaneously warning people the game's a right mess.

Not an ideal position to be in for Luthier et al on release day but there was little anyone could do other than have UBI shift the release date further back. And seeing the state of CoD on release it appears time had finally run out.
