    You learned your lesson yet Ubi? It has been 4 years.

    There is a reason top games, not this one obviously, have beta test servers prior to content release.

    Now I know ya'll rushed this out because of COD Battle royal which is slaughtering it right now.

    Now a lot of people do not buy games on day of release because of companies like yours.

    It is really affecting your sales and player base.

    I suggest firing a bunch of people and maybe hire someone from blizzard or something.

    Which is why games are now released unfinished and bug-ridden. Why would companies strive for quality when the suckers will buy rubbish up front without even seeing it. Breakpoint, Div2, Anthem, Fallout76 - all due to pre-ordering.

    Hmmm!

    With the way Blizzard have been over the last year and a half god no
    then who's left

    Treyarch NO
    Bethesda NO
    Take 2 NO
    Rockstar NO
    EA NO
    Bungie NO
    Activision NO
    Hello games NO
    CD projeckt Maybe but even their new game might go down the pan.

    I mean over the last 2 to 4 years all these companies have release games that are either buggy as hell or rip their customers off, so no difference form UBi/Massive.

    So what are we left with? not a lot.

    Do what most people are doing. You do not pre-order or buy a game until 1-2 weeks after release. More and more people are doing this and developers are taking notice. UBI is in the stone age still but you never know, even a baby learns to walk eventually.

    LOL... Someone has to or you will not get your sale!

    By the way, you're barking up the wrong tree, maybe you wanna forbid the companys a pre-order option.

    95% of the games I buy I don't pre-order, and in half the cases I don't buy new either.

    And to be brutally honest I don't care what other people do or don't do with their money or what games they buy or pre-order.
