Ok thanks for the answer BS.

Hmm...so basically "Battle of Moscow" might be any type of module (expansion, sequel, stand-alone expansion etc.), interesting but also a bit disconcerting.

Does Black Six mean he is not READY to confirm -- or that he is not ready to CONFIRM. One implies he can confirm but isn't; the other he is but CAN'T. God, now I'm really bummed, out of airspeed, altitude and ideas, as empty as Ms whats-er-name's orifice.

I agree addman... with all the negative rumours going around I'm not sure why they can't say wether or not the sequel will be standalone, and/or merged installation. This is the problem....people are suggesting that work has stopped on COD and nothing they are doing to the sequel will apply to COD. Which doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I can't see the developers cutting their own throat with that action, but if that were correct the community would have a reason to be really p*ssed.

I can understand BS's hands are tied, but Luthier should clarify the situation, if he can't the development has bigger problems than I had hoped.

Dude I speculate that it will get confirmed if if its an expansion. If its stand alone, no confirmation.

Well we have it in Black and White that there will be no dynamic weather in CLOD, but it will be in BOM so they cannot be compatible. Cliffs Of dover is binned, it will never be what we were told it would be, its been a beta for the more profitable BOM. We have been cheated.

None of what you say makes any sense if both games use the same game engine and developer, but Luthier's answers to the last questions were so vague it makes it easy to subscribe to that gloom and doom theory.

I agree. Black 6 saying "I wouldn't wait for the next patch" is pretty grim.

I would take it as read that CloD has been abandoned. As as tree points out, if dynamic weather will not be "back dated" to CloD then it will not be compatible with the Moscow game.

Now things are starting to get out of hand!

i would appeal to everyone not to jump to conclusions on the basis of absolutely no evidence.

Tree, I interpret Luthier's reply about dynamic weather to mean that it will be introduced in the sequel and not in any of the ongoing COD patches. Nothing in his reply about whether the Moscow game will be compatible with COD or not...but as they've previously said it will be then I'm sure the weather will be usable in COD too.
