I agree with all of you, but now I ask you this. We've already paid for it (most of us), so we've already been suckered. What could we possibly do now that would fix the problem? Even if they patch what's already there, fact is that we've still been taken advantage of. Actually, even if the game was good to go from the start - no hassles, problems with installing, etc. Even with all of that, we were still screwed. 4 new weapons, several different skins, a new style of MP gameplay (while different, wouldn't be hard to have done without the expansion). I remember a promise of CTF style gameplay. I remember a promise of a gameplay that gave you more of a feel of being in a team (I know, FPS is almost impossible to play as a team with all the idiots out there). And the thing I'm really saddened about is the lack of the SDK which was promised. Or the admin features that were promised to help cut back on idiots on the server... oohhhhh, I'm sorry, I forgot that you can decide what people can vote on and kick TKers without being there... whoopty freakin' do!! What about sv_pure? Does the engine give out decent logs now?? Probably not...

EA has humiliated all of us with this and to be honest I don't see any solution to it. We were screwed and need to face up to that fact. Personally I'm going to keep playing because this is the only FPS game and community I've ever enjoyed this much. But I feel like I just threw away $30 for nothing...
