You're not wrong there bud, because there still seems to be a lot of disgruntled customers out there.

Good luck!

I strongly disagree, and can't believe you wrote that Ilya. One has "a right to be angry" if he was forced at gun-point to buy this "half-finished game" in its present state. If purchaser had simply waited until middle of April, he would have had a clear picture of the state of CloD and saved his precious 50 bucks for something important like tap-dancing lessons or bus fare.

To be honest Luthier i am somewhat shocked by this post, effectively what your saying here is that you guys knew all along that the game you were putting out was not fit for purpose, all those vids that you showed us pre release were completely misleading. Time and time again I asked you and Oleg to show us real in game footage but the subject was avoided at all costs, I asked many time about SLI and how well the game would run on top end rigs, each question was either ignored or thrown back in my face, a few bans were also implemented to keep me silenced. Then we had the leaked Youseff video that we can all see was a marketing ploy since noone got the game to run that well out of the box.
If you want to make us happy why dont you start with a little truth, I am more than happy to put all your misleading hype pre release behind in the past, I am more than happy to help iron out bugs with error reporting, so how about a little bit back from you guys, i.e. tell us what really happened, you guys need to level with your fan base here, you can only gain respect from that and im sure it will help us all feel a little less conned.

last whine from me, im going to be more positive in future but this post from luthier just made me a little angry. Im over it now, lets move on

Peace.

i knew all about the games pitfalls when o bought it, i have no doubt the team will get this sorted.
I reckon its the terrain engine, memory leak? there is absolutely no reason why my rig should perform so badly in CoD over terrain, whereas in RoF over citied its really smoothe, its not the amount of houses or trees, it must be something else making it heave.

good luck anyhow

I've put DAYS into beta-testing CoD for the developers. They haven't paid me...no, indeed, I PAID THEM. So the least I expect, after a long weekend, is some bloody word on what's being done to get the MP working again, not to mention the 101 other major issues that still haven't been fixed. Not some bollocks about an add-on/expansion months down the road.

Or am I being unreasonable? Please sir, when might I expect to be able to actually play the effing game I bought instead of endlessly TESTING IT?
+1000000000000

sanity at last, beta patches after beta patches and the only things you find to come with is a idiotic hint about a stupid add-on ( which you probably will charge us for and not a very original one on top of that...the russian front again!!is it you joker...)

PLEASE FINISH THIS BLOODY GAME THE WAY IT SHOULD BE!!

I paid your game with real money right, i mean i did not pay you with monopoly money so WHY OH WHY are you acting like i should get some kind of MICKEY MOUSSE kind of service from you, please , please Luthier explain it to me, i deserve an answer as i played all of your games for the past 10 years and i bought that non playable game PRE-ORDER mind you!!

and one more things, if you must do a bloody add-on why not try the MALTA campain should be quiet a nice following to the battle of britain! don't you think? And also Sir quiet frankly speaking can anyone really could stomack another russian front campain, comment give us a break or more simply, just a playable COD and i won't even ask about the radio...
