They have never made an MP game as complex as BF, though. Past success is no guarantee of future success, just look at Bioware and Dragon Age.
BF3 stabilised quite nicely. BF4 will too.At this point, neither has Dice, successfully. I guess you are much more patient with your $100+ purchase than I (incl premium).
If dice ever questions why their franchise can't hit cod numbers, the answer should be staring them in the face but I'm sure denial is strong over there. It'd have to be in order to continue putting out such product.
Uhh no. Even if BF has had some technical issues at launch at least it ends up being a good game, something that I can't say for CoD, especially on PC...Yeah, Respawn is comprised of the original Infinity Ward people, who know how to make kick ass MP games (that actually work at launch).
To be fair, every developer can have a publisher/owner who forces a game through QA to hit a certain release date.Yes, but how many free passes are you willing to give them? Quite frankly, it's hard to imagine how they can stumble and fall flat on their face at launch, every time.
Not sure how many games you play, but it's pretty much every multiplayer game/platform that is sufficiently large that has issues in the first few weeks. Doesn't seem like anyone is immune to the issues, so while it's not really acceptable per se, it's hard to say DICE/EA is any worse than anyone else.Yes, but how many free passes are you willing to give them?

I agree, they shouldn't have included SP in either BF3 or BF4.I'd say they are they have a single player game that cannot be completed and several years to fix it.
It's not so much bugs its their attitude to them, where is their sense of pride

Do yourself a favor and never try CoD online... or DotA/LoL... or pretty much anything on XBL...ps: bf2 was the game that made me give up multiplayer (full of idiots)
How is that possible if you're not on there?ps: bf2 was the game that made me give up multiplayer (full of idiots)

You're nuts. BF2 was one of the best multiplayer games ever. If you ran into idiots, just slap some C4 on them and blow them to smithereens. BF2 was the game that taught me about the "Jihad Jeep" and how to be a terrorist in general.bf2 was the game that made me give up multiplayer (full of idiots)
