I'm gonna use a metaphor...
Bear with me for a moment...
Say you order a pizza for tomorrow night. You pre pay over the phone. The shop says "all good be there at 6pm."
Then the next day the shop calls you at 5pm and says "hey sorry, our cheese isn't any good. We will give you a free garlic bread instead."
Now you are gonna be disappointed because cheese is a important part of pizza. But -blam!- it. You like garlic bread and you have already paid anyway.
Then at 5 minutes to 6pm the pizza shop calls you up and says "hey man, we got a problem with our oven! We will call you every hour until we know something!"
You gonna be happy?

Would you rather let them release a broken product? I don't.. If it takes a little longer to release the product without bugs... Then good
-
They shouldn't promise a date is the whole point of this post lol
-
No of course not. I will wait however long it takes. I would prefer deadlines being met. Don't say a certain date until you are ready. Like 100% good to go. I would prefer they just said May until the work was done.
-
Easier said than done with deadlines...if you gave a vague release date then everybody wants a set date since the company has already betrayed our trust by giving half of a product from what was told from advertisement...patch or change the way we want to play...ect....
-
Terrible analogy. Seriously.
-
Ok, you do better
-
No thanks. I don't want to waste my time with foolishness. I don't care that the patch is delayed. And HoW looks amazing. You're just being whiney.
-
Well I have been suitably chastised. You have my respect and admiration.
-
It's like waiting in line for a roller coaster then when you're 5th in line you see a kid throw up and all the medic get around him and the rides shut down. You don't know when the ride will be back up, but you know it'll be as soon as they clean their shit up.
-
I don't remember paying money for a 1.2.0 patch
-
Well you didn't, but if it's tied up with HoW and that gets delayed... To use the metaphor again.. You didn't pay for the box the pizza was in, but if they didn't put it in a box, you would get a soggy -blam!-ed up pizza.
-
Ya but HoW hasn't got delayed yet... So your point is based on "what if"s and speculation.
-
Well it's an extrapolation based on the limited information we have received. Why the information is so limited this close to release date is a reason for concern
-
But you would still eat it
-
-blam!-ing oath. Paid for it already. ... But it would make me think twice about pre paying next time.
-
I bet... You will be the first to grab comet haha
-
Yeah.. Who am I kidding? -blam!-ing love destiny too much. Just wish there was less problems
-
I just want pizza now
-
I'm following you but it's more like. Hey we're out of pepperoni all we have is sausage. And you've never had a sausages pizza before.
-
The problem is I can't wait a week for a pizza. I can wait a week for DLC.
-
Well it's a metaphor. I know it's not perfect, but it's something everyone could understand
