In the past games were released after they had gone through extensive beta and bug testing. Today it is common to release a game and then have future patches that correct errors and bugs. It is a crappy practice but many companies do it.

Early adapters/beta testing would have cut the problems down.

Also, sounds like the developers made their money, anyway.
