Oleg leaving game development (CoD)?

[xnomad]

What an odd thing to say just before a major release. I can understand where he's coming from but I question the timing.

People are going to worry that the game's a flop or that it won't be supported after release.

Hopefully it was a knee jerk late night post, it would be a huge loss if he left the industry.

I doubt it has anything to do with the quality of the game itself its been in development for 6 years so no one will be fooled by buying this be sure, however post launch support might change a bit depending on who takes over the project.

I think this thread should be locked, people here are writing so many absurdity

I'm surprised that he has stayed so long on this project, publishers messing him around, constant whineing from forum members who are too narrow minded and self centred to realise that this is potentially the last highly detailed ww2 flight simulator that is for the gamer rather than for money.

@Oleg
Sorry to hear you are leaving, I hope it isn't true but you and your team deserve a break after 6 years of back breaking work in a dwindling genre... I hope il2:clod is a hit so even if you don't come back at least you can retire from game development knowing you have proven hard work is rewarded.

I think we should all hang fire and wait for some clarification before relying on a notoriously poor translation software interpretation of what may have been an off the cuff reaction.

Have to say though that Oleg has looked ill in just about all the photos I've seen of him recently. Looked like someone under immense stress.

Presumably though, Luthier will take the helm in the event that Oleg decides to focus on other things...?

just go independant and release on steam like everyone else

its better for everyone that way and you dont have to listen to the clowns at ubisoft

Oleg!, Please disregard this thread and place all contributors to it on your ignore list!

Ooops!
