Dan Dimitrescu's last day with Ubisoft - Page 2

CherryHarbey · 11-30-11, 03:28 PM

so long and thanks for all the fish

11-30-11, 03:49 PM

Best wishes and all that Mate.

Keep us informed as to future projects so we don't have to work so hard to stalk you.

Forget tight schedules, underfunding, intrusive DRM, bad marketing & licensing Seawolves, Ubisoft's biggest mistake yet is letting a true pro like Dan go. Someone who put their heart & soul into a product and listened to and communicated with his customer base to deliver as many fixes and features as his limited budget would allow whilst leave things as open and moddable as possible for the commmunity. We can only hope that Dan becomes a freelance game designer/developer of naval games at some time in the future and "returns to the fold".

Thank you for all you have done for the naval simulation community & best wishes to you & your family for the future.

Like many other I had never met Dan but I wish I had
Best luck in the future, and thanks for the Silent Hunter series

All the best. You've gone beyond the call of duty, often for a harshly critical audience. We subsimmers are in your debt, whether we acknowledge it or not.

Thank you and best wishes to your future endeavours.

S33 u Dan, good luck with your next adventure.

I was unfamiliar of you until today, but knowing all the joy Ive gotten from the Silent Hunter series, and because of SH3 I might join the navy for submarines, I will differently say good bye. You might have possibly changed my life around (financial wise, assuming I become a submariner) because musicians don't make much money at all, and SH3 lead me to obtain knowledge of submarines enough to want to work on one.

Thanks!

Herr-Berbunch · 11-30-11, 05:06 PM

Good luck to you and your family with your future endeavours. But you'll still pop in here, right?

I don't suppose you've got the SDK in your back pocket?

nikimcbee · 11-30-11, 05:33 PM

All the best Dan!

Thanks for the great games.

Don't be a stranger and drop by some time.

And if you need somebody to play paintball or airsoft, I'm always game.

I never knew him either, but as he was involved in SH series, I want to thank him for giving an old, disabled pensioner a hell of a lot of fun over the years.

Good luck.

zl2bmh Jim.
