Evgeny: why no SOW updates any more?

I agree, we were told that updates/news would come more frequently but we just get the occasional 3D models. Like i have already stated some of the big selling shops around here such as 'Game' have looked into SOW and have told me that they can find no information on it at all other than the old release dates, they believe that the whole project must of been shelved or scrapped. Again i doubt that this is the case but if a big company like 'Game' are telling this to customers then its bound to raise questions. Some people have even had their pre-orders refunded from online gaming stores, the speculation has to whether this sim is dead can only be addressed by a few parties who are genuinely in the know. These people in my opinion should be doing all they can to keep us all on board and up to date, after all we will be their customers, so it seems a very strange marketing tactic to give so little info away if the sim is anywhere near completion. If you do a Google search for Storm Of War there is nothing official from anybody. I personally think that the sim is a very long way off completion and if we see it before 2010 i will be happy.

Well we usually get the answer that the developers are too busy to post updates,but really,it would take 2 minutes to do it.

Ironically, you keep bashing me, personally, HenFre, though you keep posting, that this is not a place to do this...

I don't shoot a messenger, I don't bash people and I don't flame them for posting questions.

What I do and I honestly really love to tell over and over again, that I want to move things into perspective.

And I so much like to tell that especially YOU, because after reading and answering personally to all my replies, you still think like mazex, that the only one responsible for this is 1C/Maddox, which is plain so damn wrong, that it makes me laugh every single time.

If anybody at all is responsible for the lack of information it's UBIsoft. And considering that, it makes so little sense to post these questions, demands, threats, etc over and over at this forum, instead of writing to UBI. Has anybody of you even considered writing UBI a mail? Contacting their Support? Dropping a petition at their door? No? Why not? Considering the threads here and on UBIzoo, there gotta be thousands of people gladly joining your march and I'd be the first to sign in.

Again, don't get me wrong. I'd like to see some information, too, but you guys are knocking in the wrong door here.

NOTHING official?

This is one of the first links I get from google, a 3 seconds search and all of this information is official, though part of it is translated to German in this thread.

The best way to give us some updates now, would be don't give us them at all. I'd prefer: "We'll give you updates when we could do it. Regards".

BoB will not be simple a new sim but the first step of a new sim generation. So is better they could work without stress.

My two cents.

What do you think you gain by insulting people? I just don't get it...

I disagree in a way... that's probably not gonna be the first step but rather "the only step"...
I fail to see anything showing up in the near future that will remotely look like an IL2 let alone SoW... an unique products really .
But then again, what do I know?
Perhaps someone comes out of shadows with some other great sim?

But we were sooo lucky that the man who does miracles got in charge of all this...

If something was explained about 30 times here and frequent posters still post it wrong, it IS funny. I didn't draw conclusions from it and didn't post them, but the fact alone is funny to me. But of course you can also take it as a personal insult, if you want.
Question is, did you draw conclusion what I might have concluded, so you can take it as an insult or is the pure fact that somebody thinks otherwise and doesn't join the march offend you?

Agreed 100%.

Nobody can give definite answers when BoB will be released, nor when UBI is going to lift the ban and officially advertise BoB and frequent updates will start, etc. But again and again Oleg promised regular updates, previews and stuff in a few weeks or days, even on this board, but the only effect it has, is the stuff that evolves again in this post. It's like a bunch of little children waiting for their candy and it's again and again postponed and they get more and more disappointed and angry. If anything IS Olegs fault, then it's promising something he cannot control again and again.

After watching this happen so many times, not only on this board, not only with this game, I'd prefer a simple statement: "You get updates when we are ready to post them - period." or the good and golden "When it's done."

What i mean is "Don't joke with us, please". What we have seen in this months is not a BOB update, it's simple NOTHING. The web is full of wonderfull 3D models......... Be sure that Oleg has more to show us than we have seen untill now.

So, please give us updates when you will be able to do it, or you could do it (read publisher's approval).

Thank you.
