Alot of people seem to have short memories here. The reason that things were left out and the reason for most of the bugs was because of the late addition of the dynamic campaign. (Which you all demanded).
The devs had a deadline to meet and even though it was delayed in order to add the dynamic campaign it meant that some of the things they planned on adding to the game had to be scrapped due to time constraints. And I'm sure it also meant a shorter alpha and beta test cycle.
Why anyone here would bitch at the devs for the way the game turned out is beyond me. They did the best job they could especially considering that the dynamic campaign was not part of the original design docs.
They had a choice,code the game as it was originally designed,with all the things they planned to put in. Or add in the dynamic campaign and drop some things that were originally planned for the game. And since there was near unanimous requests for a dynamic campaign they chose to go that route.
Since SH4 is being coded as designed with no late changes needing to be made,I expect SH4 to be the best of the series. They have the time to put in more things than SH3 had and more time for beta testing.
