UBISOFT never went anywhere they were the publishers of COD/SOW since 2005, there may have been a strained relationship, but they were still in the picture big time. If Oleg could have gotten ridden of them he would have, as he didn't need them to distribute the game in the West. Steam is doing that just fine. UBI fronted too much money and Oleg couldn't afford to get rid of them. It was one of the reasons Oleg left the day to day operations of his company too explore other monetary interests that publishers couldn't drain dry.

This is a complete work of fiction. Ask yourself why Oleg would make the 'statement' that he had found a publisher.... if he already had one??? Unless of course he'd forgotten he had one which is remotely possible.

Lets look at the facts.
-Ubisoft never mentioned SOW/CLOD for years
-The game never appeared on any Ubisoft release shedules for years
-James O'reilly international brand manager said in 2009 that Ubi were not involved
-2010, Oleg announces they have a publisher

These are hard facts, the best you have is what you 'think' happened.

This is true. Or as close to the truth as we are likely to get short of any 'official' documentation.

OK let look at the facts:

UBISOFT was involved with SOW since 2005
UBISOFT announced the release of COD/SOW in 2007
UBISOFT was still publishing Maddox Games titles in 2008
Maddox Games has never announced that UBISOFT was no longer the publisher in the West.
UBISOFT is the publisher in the West

You claim James O'reilly told you on phone UBISOFT is no longer involved. This has NEVER been substantiated by UBISOFT or Maddox Games. I find it interesting you believed him when you've been calling UBISOFT and Maddox Games liars for years.

I have no doubt there were problems with UBISOFT, and Oleg was very likely looking for an alternative considering his feeling on the percentage of the profits publishers take.

James O'Reilly could no be substantiated because none of you clowns could be arse'd to phone up, despite me posting up his direct phone number on more than one occasion. So lets not go down that route Chivas.

So Oleg annouced they had found a publisher because he's

(a) A complete fool who had forgot he had a publisher already
(b) A blatent liar
(c) Because he hadn't got a western publisher up until announcement (hint)
(d) He is a sheep head

Mutltiple choice for you here Chivas, answers on a postcard.

I think there was a second publisher on the grassy knoll...

You are making it really hard for the moderating team to justify your stay around here with the kind of directly aggressive language you use towards other members, simply on the basis of having a different opinion.

Consider this your official "strike 1 out 3" warning and give the personal attacks a rest or you'll get a few days of mandatory forum vacation.

Oh and before i get complaints about "silencing the criticism", one of the most ardent supporters of the sim already has 2 out of 3 for the exact same reason: if grown men can't mind their manners when addressing other people, then they need to be reminded about it in some way.

Other than that, everyone is free to go on as they see fit. We don't mind what people say as long as they do it in a respectful manner. If one doesn't respect the rest of the participants however, then their posting rights will be disrespected as well.

Well I apologise if anyone felt that I had attacked them personally with the use of the word 'clown', or indeed if I have offended any real 'clowns' by insinuating that they are flight sim fans. Seriously though Blackdog, in the uk calling someone a clown, as in "oh you clown" is not at all aggressive its more a term of endearment, its what you would call a friend if he made a mistake, rather than call him an idiot, if that makes sense. Anyhow sorry if anyone did take offense.
