I really have a hard time grasping why people are so upset.
I guess folks here just take this game a lot more seriously than I do. Trying to analyze why a patch introduced new bugs is a big waste of time. It happens all the time. QA misses stuff because there is too much to test in a short amount of time, or a last second change goes in with ver little testing,. It isn't the same thing when a community member fixes something. With all the beauracracy that goes with releasing a new patch to the public, they couldn't fix a typo and turn around a new patch in a matter of days. Plus, quite frankly, if they actually let the ultra hardcore fanatics influence every decision they made their product would not appeal to the wider market of people that just want to play the game and have fun. The fact that many of the denizens of this forum ripped Firaxis a new one because a developer went out of his way to feed you good early informaion is a shame.
Obvoiusly, we all very much enjoy this game, and somebody did a pretty decent job because we are all here spending our time talking about it when we can't play it. As the old saying goes "Don't bite the hand that feeds you ".
Anyway, Good Luck with your whines!
