A transportation strike in Romania, of all things, is being blamed for a delay in the next Battlefield: Bad Company 2 patch on the PC.

I guess no one that works there owns a vehicle or lives close enough to walk/ride a bike to work.

    This is kind of old, but once it got to QA they denied which is why the patch still isn't out.

    DICE is in Sweden, but EA QA department for this game is in Romania.

    I have read about the patch failing QA but did they even test it or were they buying time for the strike to end.

    Im in favor of not rushing the patch. If QA is finding bugs in the patch, thats great cause i dont want a patch thats going to break something else.

    DICE slowly becoming a console developer 

    video card: EVGA GTX 280 vanilla
    CPU: intel q9550 3.4ghz
    Mobo: Evga 780i
    ram: 4gb sli enabled DDR2
    PSU: corsair 1000w
    OS: windows 7

    Maybe... I can't call it yet as DICE/EA have been pretty fair to PC up to this point.

    Yeah, they are pushing the line on being a console developer. Who isn't nowadays?

    It's fine to make console games but they need to make the best game possible for each platform. It took DICE awhile to finally add a server browser worth a damn.
