Well, the problem is, that so many other games fix and patch on a regular basis. So of course you come and and look at CA and their games.
Where is/are the patch for NTW? Many bugs are there, many are pointed out already, most are very obvious. Why this isnt fixed already?

If i look at the current situation, i ask myself how this will work once S2 is out? Do we really expect, that everything will change in 6 months?
I doubt it, the patch-policy from CA was (i hope im right) always same, after some months we got one patch and thats it.

In my opinion it is almost impossible to patch/fix a game like TW with just one patch. Especially the units need surely a few small patches, to adjust some stats and finetune the balance.
Many small or even some bigger exploits needs time to get found by the players, each time such a exploits is shown or came up, there needs to come a little patch.

If steam is used, you can easy bring the patches about the downloads and done.


But the fact stands, if CA dont fix/patch NTW, how on earth they do it with S2?!?!
