Lets just asume to say that UBI ordered this title out the door in it's current state. If so, it really makes you wonder what the heck it was that the Dev Team was doing with this title for 3+years when they already had the excellent foundation of SH3 & 4 to build upon. SH5 Graphics are nice but look what modders have done to SH4 with no code access and in a relatively short amount of time to make it comparable to SH5 graphically.
Lets face it, the Devs weren't; "Reinventing the Wheel" here. Case in Point: A mere week after SH5's release, tons of Mods were released, finishing and fixing many issues that any of the Devs could have addressed in an hour or so "With the Open Code lying right in their faces".
Makes me wonder if the Devs were just jerking around like most office staff updating their "Facebook" pages and playing Solitare rather than working hard to complete a quality product and UBI finally said; "Enough is enough", and pulled the rug out from under them, releasing this title in the stinking state that it is.
So until we know the real story I think its safe to say that we can't assume one group is guilty over the other of releasing this one as a stinking TURD!

Well i think its more likely that the devs told Ubi it was not ready and Ubi said, release anyway and you guys can do some patches, cheque is in the post. What are the devs going to do, refuse to hand it over? Remember Ubi are their bosses.
This is the problem with these large corporate publishers also owning all the dev houses making games today. The publishers own all the rights which mean they have all the power in the end.
This is why i stress the devs needs to ascertain their rights as artists and at least own a share of the copyright. Believe me this happen very soon when developers realise that they should have some control over their creative work, as do authors, artists, even journalists.
