Evgeny: why no SOW updates any more?

[Insuber]

Any time-related discussion in this forum is turning into farce, and not for user's fault. Any engagement about release dates, updates, patches has *never* been met. So let's face reality and pass to something else. We will be pleasantly surprised one day in future to discover that a new sim has been released. Silently..

Rehards,
Insuber

I am going to try a new tact, here goes, 'I DEMAND UPDATES!!' er 'NOW'.

You never know it may just work.

There are as many steps between posting the informations about a release-date now and a silent release as there are steps of gray between black and white.

If there aren't going to be any useful updates on this forum, then I wonder if it would just be better to close it down and direct everyone back to the Ubisoft forums.

It would save 1c a bit of time and money, and everyone is used to not receiving any useful info over at Ubi anyway.

I think they haven't got any updates to show us.

I think so, too. There was also no rain here for almost a month, so it's clear there are no clouds left on earth. Be sure.

I can confirm that there are some clouds left, its Pishing down here.

I'm very glad to hear that. Though you are probably not.

Interesting point. So you say you a) don't visit the official Forums any longer because you were b) invited or officially "directed" to this place and c) were promised exclusive updates here?

Well that's really odd, because
1. This is not a forum for Storm of War, but for IL2
2. Nobody said this forum is worth any more than UBI. Infact both forums are from the publishers, neither is from Maddox-Games, the producers.
3. I don't know why you got here, but I did BECAUSE of the pictures released here. Complaining now, that this forum is useless seems a bit narrow-minded, considering that.

I dunno how you managed extract so much hidden meaning from what I said. Were you invented by Agatha Christie?

I think the attraction of this forum for most visitors was that as Oleg and co. no longer visited Oleg's Ready Room, the place to get information on new developments, be they SoW or Il-2, was over here on the 1C forums. As there will be no new development of Il-2, and as it appears that Ubi themselves have proscribed Oleg from making updates here (or so I understand) this forum doesn't offer anything extra that the Ubi forums do.

This is not an attempt to be polemical, but a simple attempt to pose a fair question. Maintaining two forums costs both publishers money, and also splits information that is valuable to the community between two sites. It really isn't very efficient. So, is it not reasonable to ask if one or other site is absolutely necessary?
