Oleg leaving game development (CoD)? - Page 13

Oleg

I really hope you stay with CoD. I saw already too many good projects dying (not game industrie, but banking) because key people were not recognized, or because their projects were not trendy enough. Usually people or firms like U*I, which are able to "kill" such projects with their behaviour, have NO idea of how good the project is (or was)!

So please, don't let this happen. Keep on fighting for your project and ask for support wherever you can (I have nothing special for you to help, but if I can do something, let me know!)

It's great, what you achieved with IL-2 and it's great what's coming to us with CoD. Many of us pilots got interested in aviation because Il-2 is created the way YOU wanted it to be!

Please throw your sorrows with U*I behind you for some time and take a break. And then, after that, come back and you'll find solutions for the problems around.

Many thanks to you and your team, in the name of Jagdgeschwader Albatross (12 Pilots regularly flying IL-2 since 2001!).

Great job!

Best regards from Switzerland

Well Oleg, I don't know if you will read this.

I'm very sad that you've left the project, not because the development will/wont stop, but for losing one of the very few people that believes that shallowness of the world of games / world in general. I can't express all the things that i'm thinking at this moment, only to give you MANY THANKS!!! for hours of fun, for tons of new friends that came flying IL-2, and for the hope that someday, someone can make the difference.

A very sad !!see you later!!

Has Oleg actually confirmed he has left il2? It's still quite unclear to me.
But what a shocker - a week before the games release to throw about this uncertainty. Certainly does not inspire confidence

You is wrong, be sure.

There are lists and at least someone is following them, if only to pay the necessary royalties.

Btw, if nobody followed the game over such a long time, how would someone in the Ubi forum come up with a 5 million figures?

I don't hate him, and I doubt that you speak for everyone.
It is you who choose how you react to someone else' actions, no one else.
Blaming your own actions on someone else is irresponsible and quite immature.

Just in case people haven't seen it, please link to Nike-it's post regarding future status of the game: don't worry - it's good

Luthier has posted too.

Also check out Mazex' post earlier.

For me this means that we will never get the support we had with IL2 Sturmovik, PF. UBI will release the game in whatever form they please (after having screwed up the code), maybe we get an additional patch just to have those that are waiting for that patch maybe buy it and that's it finished. The UBI track record in games support is a disaster and if it is up to them then once they've made their profit its history. After all we are talking about a game for a niche market of hard core flight sim gamers. Nothing to do with Warcraft type of business. It's really a pity that you had to go through UBI. But they won't get my money, not yet, and I will be very hard to convince after this mess.

Oleg you should at least name or give us an idea about the team that will continue, if only this team exists anymore.

Blablabla...Ubi bad, blablabla...Ubi bad...

You don't realize that Ubi didn't intervene in any form on this game, except the filter, and that the filter is only a small issue affecting it?

You might see the truth soon.
The first reviews of the multiplayer are abysmal. You think it's Ubi's doing?

The issue here is the Devs' work.

Ubi supported Il2 & all its add ons as well, you seem to forget that.

Well said. 1C had 6-7 years to development these game. How they they made it we know now, question is if they will be able to fix it to accurate level as it was expected by old IL2 fans?
