Warning for developers

[Bez85]

I'm sure I can speak for a lot of players here when I say, I'm getting SICK AND TIRED of the game constantly breaking each time it is updated. This is a serious quality assurance issue. You permit the game to be modded, so it therefore up to the game developers to patch mods BEFORE RELEASING UPDATES to ensure the game can continue to run seamlessly. Relying upon unpaid enthusiasts to fix problems you create is a flawed business strategy. I am over having to spend hours going through the 6000+ mods I use looking for compatibility issues, checking all my drivers are up to date, and scouring the forums looking for clues to fix my game.

Coming as someone who has literally purchased every mod and DLC since the game was released, and as someone who has been playing for in excess of five years, this should serve as a warning to the developers. Once the mods have been patched and everything is working again from the latest failed update, I will NEVER update the game again. I will NEVER purchase another DLC. My patience has run out, and subsequently, my purse is now permanently closed to you.

First and last post on the forum. Congratulations. Get your house in check.

Colossal order have no control over the mod creators, they do their best, and try to given major mod developers access to the updated source code but if the mod creators don't update in time that's their fault not CO's.

Or CO should stop flogging a dead horse and making every last ounce of money by constantly breaking a perfectly fine game? Did you actually think about what you said before you commented? Why are you sticking up for a publisher that clearly does not listen to what its fans want?
