Was just thinking that the Devs could dedicate the entire next update to fixing all of (or most of) the bugs in PR...

like what ? and every patch they release they try and fix bugs.

Like what?

by this i mean instead of focusing on new features and such....how bout only focusing of the bugs and try to get a majority of them out.

id say a very large amount of bugs are vbf2 caused, and cannot be fixed by devs

Pretty sure every patch they try to get most of the bugs, there isn't that many bugs in PR you are probably referring to classic bf2 bugs like squad bugs etc that the devs can't do anything to fix. I would be kinda disappointed after all these months of waiting if the next patch only fixed bugs and added no new features.

Also, the fact that creating new content generally brings new bugs so if a build were solely dedicated to bugs we would have a "bug free" game. However as soon as next the nest build comes around we have bugs again, so it's kind of in vain.

Plus, I would be out of a job

Fixing bugs creates more bugs

Very true

But then there are more bug fixes and more bugs

we fix bugs, often. Most of the time you guys are unaware of them since we fix most of our bugs in mid releases via server side updates which the server admins install onto there servers and they fix numerous bugs, thou many bugs do require a client update thou 90% of the time, these bugs are not big enough to be worth getting the entire community to update to a new version.
