Just maybe, that is the reason for the long delayed release of SOW

Who knows?

You know Zapatista,we have had our differences ( ) but your post pretty much sums it up for me.

Me too, but hey we are just whiners.

Oleg doesn't post here any more because he gets the same reception that he used to get in ORR. Doesn't suprise me and I don't blame him.

Exactly! Some people have absolutely no idea about the money, time and manpower needed to make a computer game or how the developing and publishing industry works then they come to forums speaking like they do have some idea.

Even 2 years to develop a bespoke physics and graphics engine, associated developers tools and populating that with models and enviroments is extremely ambitious and takes a team in excess of 100 experianced staff. I can say that with some experiance.

I think that the idea of SoW: BOB evolved to the console game becouse of many reasons. That is it.

Please make me change my mind, please.

Don't take this like I don't like you but do you read news posts or just fishing and rumour posts? The console game just uses some exisiting resources provided by Oleg and Co. Do you also know that the Xbox 360 and PC are pretty damn similar and even if 3D models were made for a 360 game it wouldn't mean they wouldn't be able to be used in a PC game or vice versa?

It does not matter for me.

I want clear and official information WHEN will it be published!
Can you answer? Convince me!

Show me the movie, show me the the printscreens, give me the sound of engine, give me alpha testing comments, show me ...

As Cuba Gooding Jr. - "Show me the money!!!" (Jerry Maguire).

I want to feel that it's coming!!! Nothing more.

I concur. Where else do you see people whining for what they want and feel they must have as though it is some sort of a God-given right?

I'm going to stick with the comforting old phrase, "no news is good news" and enjoy what I've got now - namely the best WW2 combat flight sim around.

What I'm not going to do is subscribe to some conspiracy theory that has no basis in hard facts.

OK enough silly stuff...I have an idea that might get lost in the depths of my meandering, but why doesn't someone start a nice dignified and democratic petition. We could start a petition in which we demonstrate how many of us would like to see regular visits from the development team. Wouldn't it be great to get regular little notes from Oleg, the modelers, de-buggers, artists, ect...(I know, I know...its been said)

It would be a lot more productive starting a petition then ranting, stomping around and storming off into the sunset... we might not get an official answer, and it might not do any good...but the numbers could make a solid statement.

Er you saw the DVD that came with Il2 46 right? You've seen the screen shots on this very forum right? You've read Olegs comments right?
