Luthier is working with an unfinished game engine and can't possibly know for sure what it will be capable of till its finished. We've demanded info in the past, the development told us was they are trying to achieve, and we crucified them when they didn't get it right. I'm sure the announcement was delayed until they have a better idea where the development can go in the future. The RC patch and the readme should be very revealing if there is even a future for the development.

As far as campaigns and missions go, I would prefer that the developer continues adding FMB features and fine tuning the game engine so the community can build their own campaigns and missions. The guys in the development had no chance building a decent BOB campaign given the unfinished tools, features, and performance issues of the sim when they were building those Campaigns. That said, I'm sure BlackSix could build a very complex and historic Russian Campaign given the proper tools, features, and performance capabilities.

How did disastersoft manage to build a campaign if 1C failed so miserably?
