Yeah Im pissed too. Not that I have a ton of time to play personally, but they clearly bit off more than they can chew. Releasing a BF game is buggy for the first month or so on a single platform. Since they released on 5 platforms (2 being equipment that was just released), they clearly couldnt fix everything before release.
Sucks for consumers who get a broken game, and it sucks for DICE who has to crunch even longer then they have been for the last few months. Im sure that China Rising was already too far along in the pipeline to stop it. While its DICE's game, Im sure there was a lot of external pressure to release on 5 platforms on release dates provided by Sony and MS. Unless they have a team of 100's, its impossible to not get spread too thin.
Try to focus on one platform while you have 4 other platforms with millions of people screaming at you. There really is no elegant way to fix it besides making the consumer patiently wait while they burn thru days and nights fixing bugs.
