I have looked at the site for hellgate and I can see that with patch 2.0 we will almost have the game we were promised in Beta.  I went from a probable founder w/ both a regular and a LE preorder to not even buying the game.  In beta we were told that they had a release canadate that was far ahead of what we were playing.  Then after release and the initial patch we had the same game we were beta testing with a few more bug fixes.  I never picked up my pre-orders and I never got the game. 

After 2.0 or possibly 2.1 I will consider the game release worthy and then purchase it.  I learned a very valuable lesson from these guys.  I have avoided buying games on release now since then with the exception of RGTR, which I really loved the beta for so I just went ahead and bought it.  That will most likly be my last release purchase.

From here on out I will be waiting at least 6 months or until the first price drop (whichever come later) to purchase any games.  I figure if companies are going to continue to release games that are buggy, I will just wait 6-10 months to buy them.  Maybe they will knock if off.

Of course the bad thing is you'll always be behind those at the top of the game if you buy a game late.  But eh, I just like to be at the top of the game and I realize that might not be important to someone else.  That being said, I agree with you in regards to HGL finally reaching release quality state.  It's a shame it wasn't released in an acceptable state, because they lost a lot of potential customers.

I''ve made my choice...

I'd say give it 10-12 months. By patch 4.0, it will be ready for release.
