Oleg, I find your post somewhat confusing.
Will you stay and work on the future of this sim or will you leave.

A simple answer would stop all the rumours which are not really good marketing btw.

Not at all.

He says there is money to be done elsewhere than on console.

As long as a "trash" console editor has money to fund development of games like IL2, I wouldn't trash them....

Hope someone undertands my thoughs.

That would be COD's description...So can we speculate that Oleg is going on with top notch sim engine/technology developpement that could benefit to COD and its successors ,without beeing chief of staff and programmation maybe ? And not having to deal with publishing and deadlines issues anymore ?

Lets hope so !

Salute !

However I'm thinking what to do next. One way I found. Another in research. All ways based on advanced gaming technologies.
I see real feature of gaming idustry, where also Mac take some part together with PC and concoles will be on a separate side or on the same if only they may have some still uniquie features of PC....

But where I don't see any great interests at the moment in the tablets and mobiles.

Some say that all should go for iOS... its a mistake. Some say that PC is died - its more greater mistake. Some say that only consoles may bring profit... that is also mistake (its not a mistake if the speech is about non so complex products that are going for the one time release without long life on the market).

For the stand alone products that are done only for PC, that have no analogs, that are the best, that are even in its only own small niche - there is the way to get income that to go forward.

Thanks for the post Oleg, I agree with you on your points completely.

Thanks for the answer Oleg. Good work and agree with your points.
