Mentioning bugs in a game that is months from completion is ridiculous.

The Order is an easy target it appears. I have never seen Eurogamer tell people not to preorder other games. If the article simply stuck to what they actually played and didn't mention not preordering, it would have been fine, but clearly they are looking for clicks.

Pathetic

Its only 2 months away, that should be fixed by now.

Yea and how many games have bene released with bugs this gen? Halo had bugs, drive club, dragon age, BF4, etc. Every game has bugs and a lot of them are fixed in a day one patch that has become very popular this generation.

The scope of BF4 makes bugs understandable (5 platforms, 5 network infrasructures, 64 player online, tons of variables). To my knowledge battlefield 4s single player didnt have any bugs minus the save file corruption.

I have DAI on PC and the closest I've seen to a bug is companions standing on tables or chairs in tight areas. Thats not a bug per say buts its quite wierd to look at.

Bugs are just one of the things he mentioned. Gunplay, AI and QTEs probably wont get tweaked much this close to release. I dont believe in betting on day one patches, the basics need to be done right at launch.

The Order is a story driven game that looks fairly linear and yet it has clipping issues and sliding dead bodies. I dunno, yes it CAN be fixed but I highly doubt it will be, at least not on day one. Again thats ignoring everything else and focussing on just bugs.

Id like this game to do well because its trying to do things differently and I love its atmosphere but I cant just brush aside all the warning signs.
