The answer to a letter from Ubaku Igor Belago:
=======================================

Hello Eugene!

Thank you and all visitors Forum for the letter!

I'll try to answer your questions.

> First, please tell me what version of the game was
> Igromire 2008? This is the new version at present
> Day or so old Demo / Beta since last year?

Version, which you saw - is almost complete current version
game. In her to safety was only abridged number
truck and part game fich. Visitors can observe
in the version that virtually no gray buttons "and
fully open both regimes - the main game and a single order.

> We've noticed that pedestrians nebylo by Igormire Edition,
> They would be in the final version of the game?

Pedestrian removed from the version of the exhibition because of their lack of
otlazhennostyu.

> Will the traffic zaezzhat on filling and balloon flights (well
> Albeit at a filling), because in the video Igromira for refueling
> Was empty.

We have left the issue open with regard to some
instability algorithms (we have not been able to fully overcome
opportunities jams in complex travel trakstopov.

> Would have AI-nekonkurentov trailers?

Yes already have. Most likely to exhibit them has not been seen in connection with
reduced the number of trucks.

> You have already decided that 100% multiplayer will not ooze he
> There will be additional packages or even as it?

Yes, the final version of multiplayer games will not. In the future hope
add.

> In the version of the game at Igromire streets were a bit empty, in
> Final version of the game will be much AI cars, pedestrians,
> Life in general?

About pedestrians I said. The presence of traffic on the roads is determined
many factors. First and foremost is the installation user
(traffic and level of complexity). Then - The number of
bands and the quality of roads, then - time of day, and finally the current
place in the game events - such as in time of great
California primary race championship trail races cleared of
traffic.

> And now we have to ask about the most painful issue
> For all of us, you must crush us playing a little bit
> Understand, because we are waiting for so many years already.

First of all, Thank you very much for your patience on behalf of all participants
Project! I understand you perfectly, and believe we are even more
painful than it is for you. Unfortunately we can not go to
the new year. The game is still too many bugs and when
corrected for mistakes in the 50-70 day has ended. Now playing
mostly cleaned (I hope visitors to this Igromira
sure), and the remaining bugs are typically hide
"cryptic" in nature. They are often virtually impossible
to play and it is very difficult to catch. The number of errors in our database
melts, despite the massive manual and automatic
testing, but all our attempts to predict the rate of decay
have not yet led to reasonable results. If current pace
- Is still several months of hard work by developers and testers.
Ie the beginning of 2009.

In conclusion, I want to say thank you very much Igor from Malahovki and other
visitors to the exhibition, a long form videotchet about the game. If we
get permission from the authors, it always overlaid snippets of their
video on the site of the game.

Best regards
Igor Belago

Mr. Belago and crew:

You must hurry, because your public feels sad. It's a loyal public to your product, but patience has limits. People will begin to exit this forum and download torrent when game released, only for angry. Don't let this happens. They don't want to. They want to buy your game, and have fun with your great work, unlike many other public. Appreciate this. I appreciate your nice words, there's a lot of unpolite people. But nice words work limited time. Give us something more. Update the web, edit a gameplay tutorial video HQ explaining features or driving tips... Compromise a month and do it, please.

Thank you.

That translation is horrible, I will give you a better one tommorow.

They actually updated the RnR offical page
http://www.rignroll.com/index.php?ty...id&publ_id=503
Nothing exciting though

lol, the letters are in english but the sentences make hardly any sense. Please don't translate if you're gonna do a shitty job, maybe you should leave that up to ubaku next time.

At some point the releasing date was scheduled for Q3 2008, or so.
At that time I posted on this forum that I'm going to buy a PC which is going to be over the recommended settings of this game, just to experience it at full capacity. Now, I don't think it will be worth trying this game if it's going to be released (SOMETIME).
It's a real waste of time to have each day 5 minutes allocated to browse this forum or the official pages in order to see if the releasing date was finally posted and is 100% sure.
I can speak only for myself: I'm a fan of truck sims and when this project was made public, back in 2004, I "advertised" this game to all my friends. Now I realize I did a huge mistake, as IT'S NOT WORTH IT. I'm deeply sorry, but to hang up on this idea, for more than 4 years, that this game will be ever released, it's just too much. I'm always reading: " it's about to be", "hang on for few more month", "q4 2008", "just to get out", "just finished testing" a.s.o. Well, IT REALY SUCKS. And what's worst of it is that I never believed that I AM going to say it, knowing that I enjoyed and loved the idea of this project.
I've seen a lot of members and fans of this game shutting down their account on this forum. Never understood why till this day but now, I realize that they were right. Disappointed! TOTALLY!
One more thing (FOR DEVELOPERS OF THIS GAME ONLY): start developing games like Supaplex, Socoban or any other game playable on 286. Maybe you will be able to finish it in time, as it is clear that you won't be able to finish this one. You should consider this as an option, as your game is already outdated like the ones already mentioned.

Community members: you are great. Had a LOL with you, enjoyed being here. See you on other forums, where the games ARE RELEASED IN TIME.

Thank you.

I agree with you, having some photos, news or videos, would much better than waiting without knowing how the testing is going? will they be able release the game in begining of 2009? will hey again change release date. Damn I wish they had released a Demo, so waiting wouldn't be so annoying...
