People should realise they are not a massive development team. They've stated they're working with MS to fix the issue.
We can't really expect them to forsee every kind of problem for every kind of device out there when release an update.
It's ok to express annoyance at the fact you can't use something you paid for but without zero technical knowledge we can't really comment on the debugging process or how long it will take to fix.
Personally I think the PC version outshines console and mobile versions, I like the game that much I would have bought it for the price of all 3 versions combined, just so they have more funds to develop more lovely games like this.
Are y f**king serious? If a company releases a bad patch, fine it happens, but standard practice is to have that fixed or rolled back WITHIN DAYS AT MOST. It is now about to pass the 6 months mark of this particular app being UNABLE TO RUN, PERIOD, on an entire platform, yet (and this is the kicker) is STILL BEING SOLD TO PEOPLE.
Don't even begin to talk about "zero technical knowledge" either, as I can tell you right now I am not lacking in THAT department, and from a actual professional standpoint this particular situation is both DISGUSTING and HILARIOUS at the same time. And if this was my company these incompetent staff responsible would have been CANNED long ago. Also I wouldn't be in business anymore if I showed such hubris and disrespect towards PAYING CUSTOMERS.
This is straight up neglect and/or incompetence on behalf of the developers and this app should have been PULLED from the app store MONTHS AGO. I realize you are about 12-14 just based on your avatar so I forgive your limited world view but this is business and real life my friend, and if you advertise and charge for a product, even one that is 5$, THAT DOES NOT WORK IN THE FIRST PLACE it isn't a case of "oh it's a small developer team, just give them more time to make a product that works but give them more $$ so they can do that OK", no, in the real world that is called FRAUD, and if this was a different situation, for example business software, you can damn well bet this company would be up to it's a** in legal action from P*SSED OFF CLIENTS.
AS it stands right now nothing short of a refund for each and every person who purchased this app is acceptable but we all know that will never happen, and the devs should come clean with what we all know is the truth - they are inept, or they simply have not been bothered to put in the effort required and on top of that are totally OK with knowingly f**king people out of money by selling a non-functional app in the mean time - but we also know THAT will never happen either.
I realize you are a fan but have some self respect - you are defending what amounts to fraudulent actions by a 3rd rate "developer" (see: ports other people's games to mobile, so hardly even a developer by standard definition). If you truly believe that leaving a game in a fully broken state for over 6 months while still charging people money for it, and no clear intention of ever fixing the issue, is in any way defensible, then you are the reason that this kind of sh*t is allowed to happen in the first place, and for lack of a better term, a huge sucker. And if you truly believe someone over there is "working real hard to fix this issue" I have a bridge to sell you.
I would love nothing more than to see these guys served hard with a class action suit just for the satisfaction or making them eat their own lunch.
TL : DR Selling this broken app is fraud, it should be pulled from the store and refunds handed out en masse. It is now too late for a fix to even be forgivable, customers who paid should be refunded whether or not the app is fixed at some indeterminate date.
