If I were a dev like David and was doing this on my own time and free will, with no obligation to customers or my employer, I would have the same attitude.
Devs like him can decide to give up on us and go back to coding based on what they're provided with by their managers. And we would get only CM, their legally correct PR statements which might be not helpful at all.
At least devs can explain to us why things happen in game and we can give them feedback about what should change to make game more enjoyable for us.
And devs can also speed up bug fixing process as they can decide what more important, not someone whose job is only to reply "it's being worked on and will be fixed in future updates".
I understand the frustration, I am also a customer who isn't fully satisfied with the product, but we also must see beyond our anger and give them chance and time to fix things.
They received the full purchase price and we are not the testers of this game.

You're preaching to choir, mate, I bought Champions Edition. However, as @Amioram said, fixed will not fall from blue sky.
And I also wrote that I understand you guys, I am not fully satisfied customer either. But maybe this will force EA/Codemasters to test next releases and patches more rigorously (I am an optimist). Also, all these issues could have been caused by Marketing who didn't want to wait for stable release, or Project Management that didn't allocate enough resources for beta testing. And I guess CMs will not tell us which scenario actually happened. I just hope they learned their lessons and things will get better.
