Dec 21st 2010 10:01PM (Joystiq)I am personally tired of seeing the same adage of "the QA team sucks", when games are reported to have a lot of bugs and problems. Not a lot of companies are willing to spend time and resources to go back and fix these problems so be glad that your favorite ones happen to care enough.
I wish I could find an in-depth article to share with you in the problems with QA in open-world games but all you have is my here-say. I have experience in the software industry as QA for almost 2 years and I am working towards a couple of QA internships for this summer. Again, not saying you do not have a right to complain but maybe you can do some digging up on the forums to read about developer issues (if you are interested) and help them catch bugs during beta phases and post releases. That's just my two cents though, hope you have a good holiday sir!
