I must agree... I also prefer more small patches (even with problems), before one huge "almost-perfect" patch. I do not want to insult you, BF guys, but I'd like you to know, you're losing loyal customer... I just do not like promises not to be fulfilled (Said someone: patch will be since end of October, addon before Christmas?) and your SOON strongly differs from my SOON...
Maybe I am in minority (the screaming minority) and most of people like your marketing strategy (Big patch with huge content, but long delays) - if yes, than everything is OK. I am maybe little disappointed, but nothing big - I'll just find products more suitable for me...
