Why are you sorry for Iron Galaxy. I don't know the procedure of how they got the gig but they screwed up. If they were beyond their capabilities they should have admit it and the job should go to somebody more capable.
WB messed up too because they had no control and didn't do any audit of the work done by Iron Galaxy.

No fucking mercy. If IG was a company who get a job to dispose radioactive waste but messed up because previously they did only normal waste you would feel bad for them?

IG fucked up, Rocksteady and WB fucked up for letting it even come to this or making decisions that made this possible.

For me the blame goes to the one in charge of the whole project, the ones who provided the money and wanted to make a profit off of it. That entity had to make sure that a certain quality standard is met in my book but didn't.

So whoever that is... FUCK YOU!

All the parties involved are at fault. WB/RS for not checking extensively the game before release; and the "external PC development partner" for presenting, shamelessly, a port that is crap.

To be more specific the game has not been removed from Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/208650 although they have disabled order possibility.

i blame the parents. this mess is purely rocksteadys and wb's, they should have been checking in on a tiny, amateur studios attempt at porting their BIG ticket AAA tentpole product...



Big lol, if a client comes to me and wants me to do something that is way beyond my expertise and I know I wont be able to do it or time he is giving me to do it is way too short I simply say "Sorry, I cant do it" or "Listen I can do it but I need more time than you are giving me, so unless you are willing to wait longer I am taking it"

Simple as that.

Too bad the developers themselves don't decide it.

I've had to do dozens of software projects where the business people totally oversold our capacity. And then we're half a year late Razz

What a total joke this is, srsly I hope they get a big ass lawsuit, so that they will be made of an example that this shit has to stop. All shitty ports like this should be banned by some kind of law in some way. Who can actually alow such a broken product to be sold? If things like this happens there need to be some kind of action or it will just happen again and again. Which even bad as fraude or worse if u like.

Good thing I not a huge Batman fan otherwise I would be in the shitter too, luckily I don't preorder many games anyway. And now they will prolly never ever get any money from me. This shit isn't even worth to crack or even to pirate it's soo bad..

It's like that in all different kinds of industries - nothing really new.

With lesser known/established or smaller companies the management might feel that they can't afford to refuse a job offer, especially for project of such high profile. It might have been done as an attempt to get more recognition (which backfired terribly) or out of necessity. We don't really know what their current situation was.

Poor Batman, he deserves better.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty
