I'm guessing that Oleg has realized that the SOW community here at the 1C Forums has reached the point where they can no longer help him and his team.

Not because development has reached a point where it's all minor code, but because this forum has evolved into a whining circle-jerk of unrealistic expectations and impossible additions to a simulator that has to run on hardware available within this decade.

How can you people possibly help the dev team when all you do is whine every week about "terrain, clouds, smoke, and fire", things Oleg and company have already told you a million times they are working on, and are not final.

If you want to be helpful, point out mistakes on things they might not have noticed, like the overlapping damage textures on the stuka a month ago, or how the 110's pitot tube was in the wrong place, or how the A&M logo in the Spit's cockpit was wrong, or how "X" plane was not avaliable at "X" date, so should not be seen in the earlier part of the game.

Not just complaining about the same 4 things that Oleg has told you a million times are being changed because even they are not happy with the current results.
