And to that I agree but let's take for example, a person who bought a 5970, a dual gpu card manufactured on a single pcb, back in late 2009 to play several types of games on.*
There is no way that person could foresee that he would have trouble with a game launched in 2011. Even worse, he can't simply take out a card and run it as a single gpu. He is literally buggered until a fix is found.
I do see your point, it's just that if blame as such is to be apportioned, then for me it's MG and AMD that should be the ones to look to.
I'm confident a fix will be found for those still having trouble on the hardware end, and I understand that it's never easy to make a game run well on every possible kind of PC in this world, so for me it's just one of those things really.
As long as the problem will be attended to then that's the main thing.
*I would have been sitting with a 5970 right now, had they not been as rare as hen's teeth at the time I was looking for a new card. I guess I got lucky in an odd sort of way
