We are two and a half weeks from release and we are still getting conflicting information in all areas and it looks ridiculous.

DRM, first it was TAGES, then it was Solidshield, now with added Steam. Which is it?

How about some positive information on release? Colectors editions in countries other than the UK? Normal boxed copies? Steam release schedules? Availability of boxed copies from sources other than UBI?

If the March 25th release is genuine as we have been told then why on earth is this information not forthcoming from UBI? Are they your publisher in the west or not?

If I was about to launch the results of a 5 or 6 year project that I wanted to be a success I'd be utterly livid with UBI's lacklustre and frankly pathetic handling of the situation.

Somebody over at UBI needs a damn good kick up the backside or are they just regurgitaing what they've been told and it's all down to your department? Something I find difficult to believe given your confirmed worldwide release in 18 days.
+10000

Usually i try not to tell people what to do but this i find very hard not to agree with.

Everything is....wierd, to say the least.


This is exactly the things that gave me a massive headache when RoF was released, and still do even thinking "RoF" (doesnt matter how many things get fixed 12 months later) Im just put off and move on to other things.

I'm not bothered to care anymore. It's a miracle if this game will be on store shelves this month. Also I saw the release date at bootstep now is 30/3, http://www.boostep.fi/product_info.p...ucts_id=375890. LOL! This is turning into a major farce. I feel sooo sorry for Oleg and the team, I really do.

yes it does seem like UBI is not keeping Maddox Games informed on what is really going on. like Oleg said he still expects a mar 25 release but everything else points to something later than that.

It seems like UBI will release it whenever it feels like it instead of when Oleg would like to release it.

You would think it would be listed in steams coming soon section, but there is nothing. I agree that this is a disgrace of a launch which the title really did not need.

Ha ha, yep I just posted this same thing in another thread... there's absolutely nothing posted on Steam about CoD, yet here we are a mere "2 weeks" from release
