    That’s all well and good but why release it if it wasn’t meeting your expectations? I’m a bit tired of companies releasing broken games and trying to gain goodwill by fixing it later. Like that’s the least you should do.

      A lot of the time it’s because the higher ups (board members, investors, ect) force it out due to the improper thinking that they’ll lose more money if they take more time to make sure it’s good as opposed to making a broken game and hoping for those preorder/hype buys. It’s ridiculous.

    I think it’ll get there eventually but I’m still kind of baffled at how incomplete it is right now, the matchmaking system alone makes the game unplayable when Payday 2 already had that solved when it first launched.

    I also don’t think they should be charging for DLC when the game is basically an unofficial early access right now.

    Payday 2 remains a better game and that’s after they changed a lot for the worse with their major pivot in 2015.
