Quoted from TheLaw:

You would think so...and then the next title will block that title and the next etc etc.

From what the programmers say around here, adding more people won't help anything. Apprently code is like a fine wine or some shit like hat.

Programming is no different than any other business operation. Clearly it can be scaled, but it takes resources. Yes its very personal to some programmers, but that doesn't mean they couldn't set direction, and have junior staff do the heavy lifting, and just oversee their work. These are all operational decisions. Clearly Stern doesn't understand this, and their business will ultimately suffer for it.

Quoted from desertT1:

They will cut costs until it bites them and then ease up a little.
This is not a universal problem. If it were everyone would have issues now. The good news is that Stern has been good in the past when Metallica era games had issues and then when the whole ghosting thing happened. They will hopefully fix this and replace the damaged playfields. Until then, don’t buy until you are comfortable.

No doubt this is true....Stern will save a buck if they could...lets hope both JJP and Stern address this issue soon....
