Having compared it with several programs (including Microsoft Office, for god's sake!), I have to say that there is nothing more polished than entertainment software.
and with that said we are done here.. this game is way smoother than vanilla release could have ever dreamed.

This is the most facepalm thread ever. Seriously my face has a big red handprint.

I don't know why people are so uppity about bugs. They happen and alot of the time are quite hilarious. They add some charm to the game . Would you really want to wait any longer for this game to be released?

I really hate this analogy. It's overused and incorrect.

If this game was a car

Fanboys would compare it to when Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes, Nissan, Bugatti etc etc made there first car years and years ago.

Threads like these stir up the fanboys hard

It isn't a new car. It's a dumb analogy, sorry. A faulty car can potentially kill you or others. A buggy MMO on the otherhand is just frustrating.

Bioware is working very hard to see their product succeed. Today's patch goes a long way towards that goal imo.

Honestly, to expect a perfect product at launch is rediculous. Software gets better over time. Microsoft, for example, has been making operating systems for 30 years and still has never release a perfect product.

If you expect perfection in anything you're always going to be in for a let-down.

Have a little patience.

You are confused what you meant to say mr fanboy is

"I don't like this analogy"

To throw the analogy back at you, you don't expect a perfect car when you buy one? I do. The OP is correct in this industry people think its ok.

But then again if I bought a car that was faulty I wouldn't act like my favourite team was insulted like a lot of people in here.

This seems awfully close to asking our security question.
You have 8 character slots and unlimited characters per server. Just make a second character.
