...pokes head out from under rock....

For those hoping that UBI will release a video featuring the sim at 100% geeked-out realism settings, forget it. Doing something like that would be potential marketing suicide, as it will freak out the nubies and casual gamers into thinking the game will be too complex to learn to play. Like it or not, the users of this forum are only a tiny, tiny minority of the potential buyers of the sim. Most new buyers will be most interested in fancy graphics, the new FPS interface, and X-box type features. UBI has to give them what they want, especially in the previews, or the game will not meet the publishers sales expectations.
