Why so little interaction with the community?

He's in the wrong job if this is true. Love them or loathe them if you ignore your customers they leave you sooner or later. The developers are incredibly lucky to have an almost captive market.

Yes, but ignoring (or being too busy to have time for them) is one thing. Treating them in this way is another. It is silly, and self-defeating and illustrates incompetence generally.

The reason we dont have the Q and A is simple, Luither ether does not have the answers or he is just too embarrassed to write them down.

maybe I should remind you what is known about this project management: that before being promoted to lead CoD development after Oleg's departure, Luthier leaded Pacific Fighters. Which was almost a fiasco..

Drawn your own conclusions from here.

Luthier was overly criticized for Pacific Fighters. I highly doubt it was Luthier's responsibility to secure the rights to model some of the aircraft, which was one of the biggest setbacks for Pacific Fighters. Luthier started the project by modeling an aircraft carrier, and the project steadily grew enough for a paid addon. They never intended to build the whole Pacific Conflict, as it would have taken too long for a decent monetary return. Most people enjoyed what Pacific Fighters had to offer and it gave community modders a wonderful base to expand the project. People rave about the work of community modders, but they never seem to get, its the developers that made that work possible.
