I've posted more than once that statements like that make me pull my hair out. GWX still can do nothing about any problems that are hardcoded, and there are quite a few. GWX is not the be-all end-all of SH3, it's just a very good mod collection that does make the game much better. But there are others, and they all have their rabid fanboys.

Probably because they didn't have three years to develop it like the modders did. They had a very limited time frame and a complete new code to write. A lot of the things they wanted to put into the game they just didn't have time for.

And before you blame UBIsoft for forcing them to rush it, remember that the publisher doesn't put up that kind of money because they love the game; they spend money to make money, and they don't make money waiting years for the developers to finish the product.

"Lazyness?" I hate it when people make snide cracks like that. Would you rather they didn't bother at all? Why don't you develop a game if you're going to put down the dev team like that. I just got back from meeting one of them, and you have no clue what you're talking about. They bust their butts to try to make a good game for us, and if they didn't there would be no game for GWX or anyone else to mod.

And the modders will tell you exactly the same thing.
