Yes, it's quite possible that CoD will never get fixed and that BoM will never get released.
But we are the kings of our own destiny on this.
Let's just suppose for a moment that BoM gets released with CoD still not working properly.. Who in their right mind on here is gonna shell out for it?
Not many.
My prediction is that when they are happy with BoM we will get a patch for CoD.
Then BoM will be released.
There is no other logical approach that makes any business sense.
So my original point still stands, if you are angry about the sequel you should probably stop thinking in terms of CoD/BoM and try to see them as one entity with different plane sets and maps.
Like I said before, if the Devs decide to ditch CoD in favour of BoM then getting angry is probably justified. Until that day (which I don't think is gonna happen) The sequel shouldn't really be getting people outraged... It's at the very least a sign that the Devs see a future.
Don't get me wrong, the release of CoD has been a very disappointing experience, but to beat up on the Devs because they are trying to fix it, just not in the way you think they should do it, is pointless.
I have no problem with people being 'outraged' by the whole CoD thing either and am not here to make apologies for the Devs. I just found the reaction to the sequel to be rather knee jerk.
The reality for me is that I will not buy a sequel until CoD is, at the very least heading in the right direction. If everybody on here said the same then I'd have no problems with that. It's the 'why the hell are you working on that instead of fixing this' attitude that I was commenting on.. That and this in this case are the same thing.
