Damn. I guess the folks threatening to defect have nowhere to run now. 😉

EA released that patch less than a day ago. 2k released their patch almost a week ago.

Probably coming from a person that is either perfect at his job or has no clue about anything related to writing major applications. No offense. But this statement is just insanely naive. And nice strawman. Ironic that we are not talking about the quality of the game or patch, but the lack of transparency.

The logic that because my neighbor sucks at his job that must excuse me to half *** mine is dangerous. If anything the first "1mb games" had it way tougher job because there was zero knowledge about making games out there and they had to create new technology for them.

How you extrapolated that point, I have NO idea. Let's do the math. On average, if you say the chance for error is greater than zero, the larger your code, the larger the error due to interdependencies. Error compounds with size! It doesn't hold steady. There is no major application that is bug free. That's not an excuse, that's a PATTERN. The **** is HARD. And most major applications don't have the same rev cycle as a sports game. So come off that high horse and deal. Of course it sucks and they should strive to make **** cleaner. But it's a balancing act between playing it safe by making few changes to the game beyond bug fixing, and shipping a game with enough new crap worthy of a repurchase. When you figure that perfect balance, shoot them your resume. I'm sure you'd be well compensated for your expertise.

It was originally supposed to drop this morning, then they changed the ETA...that's why I posted as an FYI...it would appear there's some kind of issue....

This could all be moot if they end up dropping t later today, we'll see..

True. That would indicate something more minor than what's holding up 2K15. Which I would expect to be the case since Live is a much smaller game. ...

I will warn that some of you guys need to cool it on the sentiment of getting close to the point of attacking someone who's "an amercian PS4 user" in the tone you are using it because its dangerously close to being a violation.

I dont care how upset you are, its really not that serious
