We have been told unofficially this evening through a undivulged source that in fact IW are having problems with Punkbuster and can't get it working with the DX architecture. So, the promises of early 2006 have now some what been shattered and it is very doubtful we shall get an official statement from IW regarding what is happening now.

We are now at a crossroads with CoD2. We can either:

1. Sit and wait in frustration until IW release the patch, whenever that may be and continue to pay our server fees with no control over players that are connected to our servers we are paying for.

OR

2. Give them a date to respond to their loyal community, in an Official capacity and update us on the situation within the reasonable timeframe of 1 week from today.

FAILING THAT

3. Stand together, and if IW fail to announce anything officially, or give us what we think is sufficient communication, we will give them until the 15th March 2006 in which to respond. That is the date of the Red Orchestra release, and when it will be available to buy in the shops.

If we haven't received a reasonable explanation (and we're not talking a standard press release) by this date, we shall say our goodbyes to our friends at IWN the Official Home of Infinity Ward and remove all traces of CoD2 from our servers and install Red Orchestra with FULL ONLINE SUPPORT.
