@xochiquetzl_xkvn In addition to that, I think the so called "laundry list" is what EA is providing to us (the public), which doesn't necessarily mean it's the complete list. I am pretty sure they're keeping an "internal laundry list" that might be considerably longer than we think. They are only showing us the ones of which they have concrete plans/milestones for a fix with actual dev people assigned to it. I for myself wouldn't want to go through 200+ pages each time a laundry list is being released just to see that a bug is being looked into.
@Japanic2012 I'm sure that the "Laundry List" is the sweet spot of "We know what causes it and how to fix it, and it seems to affect a reasonable amount of people in an impactful way." That's not the same thing as "the only things they're working on." I'm pretty sure it's more "We're reasonably certain we can knock this out this month."
I'm reasonably certain that they're working on anything marked "needs saves," at least at a "Yes, we're confirming that we can consistently reproduce this bug" level. That's the first step to figuring out why it happens.
The next step is figuring out how to fix it. Is it adding a couple of lines of code, or is it completely tearing down how this thing functions and rebuilding it (ouch!)? The former is more likely to be prioritized, unless it's, like, preventing the game from launching or whatever.
(Again: Don't work for EA. Work for non-game software company. Speculating based on that.)
