I don't think it's a cop out, @EA_Andy is a community manager, not a lead developer or designer. I'm sure the higher ups are working on something and just don't have the details finalized. I think the design team realizes that the rose changes had more consequences then they originally though, they have a lot on their plate right now and are probably still going through a lot of information. Then they have to find the best route to resolve these issues, and then they have to make the changes. It's a lot of work, remember this game hasn't been out very long and probably doesnt have the same amount of people working on patches/fixes/ etc as games like destiny and COD.

Mmk...but see with those other games, they actually worked day 1. This game did not and their recent patch just flipped the balance table on over to the Zombies side.
I have a dream, where we get full games that work on release...like they did in the past.

yes but there have been plenty of games that did not work at all on release. Garden ops, graveyard ops, and backyard still work. Multiplayer works but there are issues with balance I agree. This happens in high tier games like LoL and games like Destiny all the time. I'm with you, I wish this game would have been more balanced on release, but it wasn't. I doubt the devs are sitting around doing nothing, if they had info to give they would give it. They just released the anti-rose patch twoish weeks ago. I think your arguments are unfair, especially since this game does work, it's just not balanced.

From the threads I've seen, the Ops are broken.
From my experience, multiplayer is horribly broken, I could play an X-box original game online with better online then this game.
Balance is also an issue, yeah, but doesn't break a game, unless you're talking about Rose. Which shouldn't have happened in the first place. You're suppose to at least play through the tutorial of the game before shipping it off for the people to play.. It's not our jobs to point out obvious issues.
LoL has little to no balance issues. Destiny's balance issues is far better then this game.
What argument of mine is unfair? Pointing out a unfinished game? No, that's completely fair, buying a $60 game just to find it broken and unbalanced beyond reason is unfair.

I get chucked out of nearly every second garden ops game, yesterday it threw me completely out of the game and back to the dashboard. Sometimes the lag in multiplayer is unbearable. I dont seem to have a problem with the backyard, apart from the trying to figure out what's the point of it.

There's some serious issues going on with Ops lately. Yesterday out of 4 different Ops missions, the connection was lost every single time. Ticked me off because one of those times I wasted a star on an enchanted base. It happened again today.
Also, during a couple of the matches the npc's were acting wonky. A couple of times during each of the rounds some enemies would spawn, and just be standing there, me and the others I was playing with had to go hunt them down just to get the game to continue. Which was at least better than during a different match where I was playing solo. There, after one of the rounds was supposed to end, it didn't. The music played like there was still an enemy someplace, but there wasn't. So I just had to give up and quit the game--a game where I again wasted a star on an enchanted garden. 😕
