 I agree; lets try to get it as bug free as possible before release. Even though I'm anxious to get it, it's way to frustating having a mile long list of bug's and no patch in sight. Schultze U-48 |

But when you start beta testing and think when startting out "we can release in 2 months" what will still be acceptable ? A delay of 1 week, or a delay of 6 months. And which bugs are you going to fix. Some people love the current SHIII for others there are just too many bugs to enjoy it. And how are you going to get a budget for 1 week, or 6 months additional programming. Those are huge problems, imho it is way to simple to state that one wants it as bug free as possible. UBI always tries that (within their budget). The main problem I think is that they don't have a budget to fix all the bugs the community want them to fix. I just hope the UBI team will have a good feel when the balance between bugs and working features is good enough for a release, or that they have some one that can really suck up to the CEO in order to get a good budget that allows for an extended beta test and a few programmers that can fix the discoverd bugs. :-) |

Yes, it does come down to how much money you have as well as I spose the CEO wanting to get some return after a certain date.. we can bleat all we want but it is buisness first and game second...

And if a game costs too much to release properly, then maybe it should not be undertaken in the first place? I'm not saying Silent Hunter IV will be cancelled, but really, undertake projects you think you can finish and follow up on, not ones that you have to rush and then not patch.
