For awhile now game developers and publishers have been releasing games that have not been fully tested. With the advent of online patching ( fixing ) abilities, there is no incentive for these companies to do so. A game when it is released to the public, should be working in all modes offered. Bypassing testing can be harmful to companies, as well as consumers, who have paid their hard earned money for a game. The company gets a bad consumer backlash, while the consumer gets a game they have to wait on to properly play. If compaines offer features on their games, especially ones you have to pay extra for, that company should be obligated to make sure it works, before releasing it.
The industry is betting that we will keep paying for broken software. Send this link to three friends this evening and tell them to demand finished products at launch.
