Although I'm inclined to agree, kawligia, we all know that this is a problem afflicting the whole computer gaming industry. Rave and rant as we might, there's nothing much we can do to stop companies acting like this, short of not buying any new titles, that is. As far as I am concerned, CA brought out a playable if far from perfect game last year. It certainly wasn't the game they had intended to release, but it was OK, and it sold well. Now, instead of considering their job done with one patch (fixing major but not all important issues), they actually take the time to fix some things in the second patch, despite the pressure they must be under. So I must say, at least they take their responsibility towards their customers the way they should, and strive to amend what was left out before. I'm quite happy with the way CA treats the fan base, although many things might be better - in a better gaming world, that is.
