We all joke about CG/QA not testing, but the reality is they do - just not to the extent we want.
But to miss this interaction, which is the most fundamental part of Ben’s synergy…I have no idea how this could have been overlooked.
It seems likey that CG knew about the interaction, but decided to let it go live and fix later, since the deadline had arrived for the patch to drop.
Either there is some deceit and potential sabotage going on within the QA team, or this is just another example of how the leaders at CG care more about hitting deadlines ($) than the actual player experience.
