I hope your boss gets around to making that announcement (and I mean an announcement that doesn't lay a smokescreen of polished PR bla bla without any content) rather sooner than later because either the rumor mill will run at top speed or the tiny remnants of interest will have died.
My question on the impact of gameplay was directed at you precisely because I am aware of your involvement with several campaign packs released in Russia. Offline gameplay in the sense of serious, well researched and well designed offline missions and campaigns is my main area of interest since I find it the only possible arena where the historical accuracy can be achieved (without having to compromise for "balance").
