    As someone who does manual QA/testing for a living, for years...... any time I hear about improper, automated-only ('math on paper'... or on a emulator-driven/automation generated report) or code that isn't tested at all by humans and then pushed, I want to rip my hair out... It saves the company money, yes, but they have a high chance of failing expectations of clients/customers. I'm hoping the case is just an odd bug they're still trying to collect information on, they know something we've yet to understand and waiting for us to figure it out (which, honestly, I seriously don't think this is it), or --IF-- they use this method - their testing environment is not the same as the real product (which I doubt, again, considering it's a program thats compiled into one final product, I'm assuming... unfortunately I'm in the web/mobile field rather than software testing field). Anyone in QA can attest that QA/development environments and Production environments are almost never the same. =_____= *Shakes fist*

    I'm just glad the JP players are saying the same thing. It gives validity that it's not just us (and not just 'the west' being 'whiny') and adds strength to the words - seeing as how those are the players that are 'closer to home'.
