It is my personal opinion that as late as GO is getting out the door already,that a soft launch just wastes more time,and the season will be practically almost over before Go sees the worldwide light of day.
Bottom line is this devlopment team needs to get it's priorities straight for next year so that we can have simultaneous releases,and actually have a soft launch along the time OOTP 24 Early access hits,but this year they need to nix gthe soft launch,and face and fix bugs as the world finds them. I have no problem downloading update after update as much as needed.

I completely understand your frustration, trust me. I've also been waiting anxiously for the new release to drop.
And about the release strategy, I think it's pretty clear their largest customer base is in the US. Of course they want to get the game into the hands of as many as possible, but they want to have the game as stable as possible before releasing to their biggest market.
I don't necessarily like it, but I certainly understand their approach. The first impression is very important, and not all customers are so willing to install updates and give the game a second go. There are plenty of people that throw around 1 star ratings without giving much thought, and that could be very hard to overcome.
I do believe the dev team is doing their best to put out a great game for us. I also wish they would offer updates and respond to our questions more often.
I'm looking forward to the finished product either way, and I'm trying to look at the glass half full and hope a global release is coming soon.
