Not finished=not live worthy (Score 2, Interesting)

Here is a quote from Developer Blairs Blog, it was posted on the 16th of April 2005. Finally, it is worth repeating that even when Combat Upgrade goes "live" it is not finished - we will continue to refine and polish the experience for some months to come. So, please take comfort in the fact that we are listening and working hard to bring you a game that meets or exceeds your expectations - and we value your insights, passion for the game and your continued patronage. I am worried by this trend of game companites to push unfinished products on us to in essence beta test. I am sick of it and hope the SWG community sends a loud and clear message to SOE on this. The true problem with the CU was taking a unique skill based system that needed balancing and converting it to a level based system that is just as unbalanced. The developers just aren't listening to the testers, not listening to the community. It's gone from making a good game to making a quick buck. My final account is active until May 26th if I don't like what direction the game is moving by then I will not be renewing.
