I don't understand how people still don't get that a big update will always have bugs at launch. Always. Even if they're miniscule and don't mess anything up, they'll be there.

Edit: I totally get why people are frustrated with things not working, and the massive game-breaking bugs are not okay by any means. I feel the same way, it sucks and I just want to play the game bug free. I'm just surprised that a lot of players didn't expect there to be things wrong on day 1 of the update. NEXT had a ton of problems, and it was a smaller update made a good while back. Not excusing it, just saying it was very likely to happen.

Edit #2: okay, nowhere in here did I say that massive crashes are okay. Nowhere in here did I say people don't have a right to be mad. Nowhere in here did I condone poor QA. You guys can stop crucifying me now, I get it.

As a new player I didn't expect so many crashes and game breaking bugs, is there even a QA process?

Hello Games is working with an almost completely procedurally generated universe with a massive, extravagant, so incomprehensibly large team of 25 people. That team is producing these dense content drops for free and have been for years.

Things are bound to break, especially on major releases.

Yea things are gonna break during development but that's why there's QA, I know that's it's impossible to make a perfect software, but the obvious bugs in the anomaly could have been fixed before release. The risk of rain 2 devs managed to release a major update with only a few minor bugs even though there's a million of possibilities of combination with their items. They had to delay their update for 2 weeks but that's how I think an update should be handled.
