Quote - I pre-bought P6 and had the ordeal of downloading SR-1 and SR-2 and the content fixes by dial-up. This does not create a warm feeling towards the company from me...
I can't think of very many software products that haven't had to put out service releases. Let's see, Microsoft, Vue, Carrara, Lightwave, Max, Photoshop, Daz Studio, Bryce, most games; I guess that doesn't create a warm fuzzy feeling towards most software companies. DAZ has had to put out service releases on Vic3 and Mike3 and other content as well. Bugs are a fact of life. Software can only be tested to a point. There are always bugs that can't be found until software is released and it goes through trial by user. No point in singling out eFrontier for doing what other software companies have had to do for their products.
As for myself, I'm not really interested in the "secret agent" bonus content. I'll wait until I can see all the features before I decide to buy, and I'll probably wait until it's been released and out for at least a month or two anyway.
It's all fun and games...
Until the flying monkeys attack!!!
