I guess the ubi guys figured out that our loyalty to SH3 would make it very easy for ubi to stick it to us by releasing a VERY beta game, then laugh all the way to bank with no plans to continue the SH series.
Kinda like those fast food adverts you see on TV, where the sandwich is all big and juice and awesome looking...then when you actually buy it it looks like someone spat on it, sat on it, shat on it, then shoved it in your face.
Moral of the story, dont beleive the hype. And avoid buying any ubi games in the future if you possibly can.

I think you are being a little unfair Grunt. Neither the devs nor UBI would have actually wanted to release the game in the state it was in and to some extent still is in. Clearly UBI have forced the devs to finish off for the release date but UBI themselves have pressure from shareholders, marketing and distribution to release products at a certain price point and within certain timescales. Unfortunately SH4 has suffered as a result.
