Sorry but EA are one of the WORST offenders for late patching, non existant support, and helluva bugged games. And before someone pulls out something like BioShock, that didnt get a patch for 4 months after release and even then it was only a "lite" patch doing bugger all to help. Or how about HAWX that didnt get its absolutely required patch (due to huge game flaws) for 8 months?

In short, unless its an MMO or a huge blockbuster title then patches are always going to be later than people want them. In BoP's case 4 months is average for a game title to get a full patch, thats actually adding features and not fixing critical showstoping bugs.

And again, I think it's useless to keep on talking on how publishers suck etc. We have no idea how the whole system works, who answers to who, etc.
