You say yourself you are not proud of it.

Sorry but I must conclude 1C does not live on the same planet as we players (and, I point out, PAYERS).

To discuss the work on CloD as dragging down your bottom line and sending into the red, please reconsider. Fixing CloD is an investment in your future, encourage people to buy your sequel. Why should they when you do not fix what is broken, it will be the same for the sequel.

UNLESS YOU MAKE THE SEQUEL FREE OR BIG DISCOUNT FOR PLAYERS WHO MADE THE MISTAKE TO BUY CLOD.

Agreed ,i am afraid i won't be buying the sequel on the whim,i will wait and see but to be honest i really can't see how you can expect people to buy the sequel .

Thanks for clarifying this important point !

No, I do not agree with you.

Black Six or Luthier, are you going to still answer the questions in the Q&A thread or is this it??

Sorry. I am german and so i am unsure if i got this right.
Whats correct?

CloD will receive no update from now on until the release of the not even officially announced sequel?
OR
Clod will get its release patch via steam and THEN it will only get a new patch with the release of the sequel?

I think you might be jumping to conclusions.

He said:
1. They have to reach one milestone first (getting the game stable).
2. Release the Final Patch
3. Release Battle of Moscow to install and merge with CoD.

The reaching of the 'milestone' itself might require further patches.
This is how I read the update.

The general plan is, after the milestone is submitted and accepted, we return to the now almost-final patch, cram as much as we can into it, and make it our final Cliffs of Dover patch. The next time it will be updated is when you install the sequel over it.

I think the 'Next time it will be updated...' refers to the next time we install something AFTER the milestone has been reached (not the next time we install).

Luthier will answer in the Q&A thread (or in the new thread) in some hours.
