All years aren't as bumpy, but this is the reality of how this game and many others like it, are produced. This isn't EA Sports, and it is still a professionally made simulation, regardless. A niche no one else is filling as well, that is for sure.
If you find yourself saying things like this has ruined my experience or i can't play this... stop buying the game in the early part of the process. LoL, anyone responsible OotP sales and marketing just **** their pants about that last statement. But, either roll with it, or if small bumps cause catastrophe for your creations, wait... play last year's for a while longer. Pick up the game when you see the fog clear in forums about issues. This is a year it may go into june for that personality type. After 1 year it'll be the same amount of time on each version, again... just slightly shifted.
and anyone working for ootp, better put on that thick skin, cause the end of the world is coming and it is your fault in some eyes! lol. if every year it took until july to hammer things out, maybe parts of a comment above are right, but they seem to balance responsibility of each game's development very well.

Always funny to me when people are this eager to defend a company against any and all possible forms of anything that could resemble criticism. If Markus and Lukas can keep their big boy pants on, without even soiling them to boot, when people don’t unconditionally love the game as is from the first beta...I’m pretty sure you ought to be able to survive it. Like, I could see if this were the FHM boards and whatshisface(can’t be bothered to look up his name, I think it starts with an A? Not the main developer, the other guy. You know who I’m talking about if you’ve ever been on those boards) was blowing out his diaper again because somebody didn’t give their game 3 thumbs up and 6/5 stars, but the OOTP boards have grown adult moderators and everything, they’re good, trust me.
But if reading this horrible, no good, very mean, awful, rude comments about how *GASP* certain aspects things could be better bothers you that much...don’t read the posts. Play the perfect-for-you-as-is game and come back when things that the developers freely and happily acknowledge can and will be adjusted get adjusted.
