All of this was " as is mentioned to be"
In other words this is not result of unfinished game as, most of other bugs is, but this is planned "feature" of game according to devs statments.
To be precise, this is how it was planned to looks like

So no need for any statment. BTW statment from UBI? Are you kidding..wahahahaha

Personaly i dont expect any statment from UBI on this FUBAR game expect "we decided to withdraw this game in order to allow developers to finish it"
