In what category would you, yourself ,put COD at initial release ?
And almost a year after the first release, what is in opinion the current state of COD in terms of patches and hotfix ?
We are all in the dark now and that is why a lot of us are just speculating ...and debating ...and arguing for nothing...really...
Actually the funny.. no telling part would be for you to tell us what you think the percentage of bugs is in CoD

In that I think any attempt by you or anyone else would only highlight how absurd it is to think you could come up with a value, which in turn would highlight how meaningless your statement that many games are released 99% bug free.

But I digress..

The point you are still missing from my initial post that you commented on is that it is 'UN-REALISTIC' to expect 'ANY GAME' to be released without 'ANY' bugs! If they can come to grips with that FACT then they will be able to view the state of this game in a more realistic light..

The next step would be for them to take pause and realize that 1C is still working on the product. Which is the 'EXCEPTION' to the game making rule! That is to say one does not have to look far to see dozens upon dozens of games that were released with bugs.. Where in many cases no bug patch was ever provided, or one was that fixed a few items but not all.. Followed by all support being dropped shortly after.

Should they get that far, than and only than will they realize just how 'LUCKY' they are that 1C is the company that made CoD.
