i think in real life events were a bit more simple

1) dec 2009, oleg states intended release date by BoB anniversary
2) jan 2010 to july 2010, oleg is happy and ontrack for release
3) sept 2010 ubi gives delay deadline for end 2010, and adds "o yea, btw, you have to add this anti epilepsy layer on top of the game or you cant release it
4) oct 2010 oleg goes "f*ck f*ck f*ck"
5) nov to feb 2011 oleg goes "f*ck f*ck f*ck" and "i cant get this crap running with the ubi mess on top of my sim", and ubi adds "no further delays, money stops here"
6) march 2011 oleg goes "f*ck this mess" and "look at all the useless ungrateful forum whiners who think we can fix this mess by magic if they just whine enough" and "i need another job that is more sane"

i suspect that is a more accurate reflection of events
