That they take no pride in their work?
Would you, as a responsible programmer, release a product like this for sale?
No, but my managers would.
After releasing it for sale, whether forced or not, would you promote an Expansion before fixing the present bugs?
No, but my managers would.
All I said was that something can seem like a simple fix but not be. I never named any specifics.
And honestly, as someone else who writes code from time to time, are you serious about some of these things not being simple fixes?
Seriously, how hard can it be to edit the text of the skillboxes to properly reflect the bonuses/drawbacks that actually exist? If it is blindingly difficult to make such a simple change, are we not in a lot more trouble than we thought? I agree, that something on the scale of the Combat Balance is going to take 100% of their time and effort, but c'mon. Who the hell was doing an EMOTE IMPROVEMENT when they could have been rewriting our skill tree, or figuring out how to make spice competetive?
