So I seriously hope that all the posters who are praising the developers are copping the same ridicule as cherbert? I mean, by the opposing logic here (or lack thereof) it seems that it's OK to praise the devs for the good stuff but not OK to criticise the devs for the bad stuff.
It's like:
GOOD FEATURE: Well done devs! You rock! Despite the bad "suits" telling you what to do!!!
BAD FEATURE: Don't blame the devs, it's the bad "suits" fault for not <insert excuse here>
Give me a break. Coders code. Publishers publish.
All those blaming the "suits" for rushing the game only need to look at
Storm of War: Battle of Britain to see how little water the argument holds.
