There you go people.
Well, I certainly don't claim exact knowledge about what started exactly when, but as far as quality is concerned there does have to be some reason than hating myself to play this game for over 150 hours in less than a month.
So it can't be that bad.
Still, people will have their opinions about that and that's cool. However, all other things aside, when it comes to the next patch I'd rather they bring out a better patch than a faster one if you know what I mean. For me I'd rather get a quality patch than a rushed patch because the community was screaming for a fast patch and then it just doesn't deliver.
@EgoMania you dont seem to get that the damage is already done for the most part. people dont give a * about this game anymore BECAUSE they took their sweet a** time fixing/ignoring MAJOR issues! the disconnects and crashes for example were and are a CRITICAL issue.. yet they persist, not knowing what kind of connection a host has is another one that needed to be fixed IMMEDIATELY, but they dragged their feet and turned even more people off to the game, the way the n7 drops and passive bonuses work also turned alot of people off to the game. they may come back, but rest assured it WONT be any time soon (i have over 15 days PLAYED.. with your cute little 150 hours). do you realize the ammo glitch is still alive and well on xbox one?
they could release the best patch that ever existed in this world tomorrow, unfortunately 80% of the people who originally bought the game no longer give the slightest * WHAT they do with the game. never discount the fact that it looks real bad for EA aswell, new NFS game coming out later this year.. anyone going to preorder it knowing the steaming pile of trash THIS game turned out to be? i know im not!
the angaran poetry recital in the vortex... i've played this game 5 or 6 times, and this is the first PT that i've seen it. just how new is that?

I do get that. I have no idea why you think I don't get that.
And don't even try this "cute" business. I've seen people with 500 hours and all that. That's not the point. My point is that if I played that many hours and really hate how BW does things and see them not learning...basically like you. Then why the hell play so many hours?
You are a complete contradiction if you hate all this so much and played hundreds of hours in the meantime. That's just total self-hatred in my book, if you are willing to put yourself through so many hours of something that you seem to hate so much about.
@EgoMania hmm, perhaps its the fact that you seem to think spending MORE time on a patch is a GOOD idea! its not! this b/s should have been sorted out WEEKS ago!
make no mistake, it is "cute". i dont even remember what its like to be a casual gamer. i didnt buy this feces (not even going to call it a game anymore until its fixed) for the single player, i bought it JUST for the multiplayer BECAUSE in the past bioware demonstrated an ability to throw together a surprisingly enjoyable multiplayer mode. i waited MONTHS for it to come out, i bought stupid games like breath of the wild and wildlands JUST TO PASS THE TIME until andromeda launched. should i have played it for 2 hours, declared it garbage, and walked away? nonono.. this game was supposed to keep me busy for months (particularly when i look at the coming soon list and want to vomit.. worst summer gaming i have ever seen, and i have been playing videogames for over 40 years). so i stuck with it (i know, impossible for millennials to comprehend) until very recently.
i get it you are a casual and cant handle grinding, i came up on games like EQ, phantasy star online, and ragnarok online. suffice to say i can grind like a stripper working for coke. what better options are there? prey is trash, wildlands lasted a whole weekend, vikings is a bit slow paced.. theres not anything BETTER to do (can only spend so much time a week mowing the lawn) than waste hours a day playing with friends picking apart the MANY flawed systems within the game.. but now THEY mostly stopped playing too. now i know alot of you kids are all kinds of pros at playing with yourselves, me.. eh id rather NOT waste my time like that. so im doing laps in the pool, playing OTHER games, and checking back on these forums hoping they fix the b/s so theres a point TO playing again.
to me self hatred is simply accepting that you got shat on by bioware asif you deserved it.

a) If the choice is between a rushed patch that doesn't fix things properly and/or causes more bugs or one that is solid but takes a bit longer, my vote is for option 2. That doesn't mean I don't recognise the issues that exist but it does mean I believe in quality over speed. The point that it should've been sorted out weeks ago is crying over spilt milk. Complete waste of time.
b) If you call playing 40 hours a week being a casual gamer then you have just won the no-life award and I wish you well with that. It's truly one of the more ridiculous statements made, aside from the fact that I find 150 hours already enough to qualify for playing too long if you really hate it.
c) That is also a form of self-hatred but that doesn't in any way invalidate my definition, so my point stands. It makes zero sense to offer an alternate definition. It's still ridiculous to hate something with such a passion and still play it. Basically you come whining here and then play 100s of hours in game. Do you think that BW will take any of your comments seriously if you talk the talk but don't walk the walk? Actions do speak louder than words.
But do as you will. This will only escalate into a full-fledged forum fight if we go on like this, so I'll bow out at this time and let you have the last word, since that's probably important to you.
I'm less concerned about patches for the very noticeable number of glitches and smaller bugs not being available right now, but rather disappointed by the lack of communication and follow-ups (with most information being "hearsay" via Twitter).
This is 2017 and other games have game directors regularly (!) communicating with their customers via videos, livestreams, blogs, et. al. - here we get nothing of the sort (also an issue with Battlefield) and it just doesn't feel the way a big franchise or game entry should be handled in this day and age.
[CONTENT REMOVED- do not make personal attacks against other users]
them SAYING they are working on a larger patch is in all likelihood a line of *, you know that RIGHT? like every game that ever got pushed back "for polish" and STILL got released with 100000 bugs.. but people always support the developer asif they REALLY are polishing the game. SUCKERS!
if actions DO speak louder than words (im pretty sure ea is sick to death of my words while not giving * number 1 about my actions since they already got my money) then what do biowares "actions" say about this game? aah, that they simply dont give a * about ANY of their customers, right, got it.

Yeah, this is probably the most frustrating thing about BW in general. I've played a number of their games over years and it just seems they can't get this communication thing right. I played SWTOR since launch and just quit a couple of weeks ago. Also there one of the main issues is their horrid communication. It's not the only reason, but it's always been a factor.
Wow another one of those?
I asked the same question nearly two weeks ago... can't believe we have heard nothing whatsoever in 4 weeks:
