Is this going to be another disaster Windows 10 "app" like the new Tomb Raider where you can't even make the game proper full screen and use xfire/sli?
We have some Game developers here, just a question. How the f....ck would you release a game in such a poor state ??? Im a PC gamer since 1995, the last 2-3 years we have seen AAA titles released that were clearly in BETA, hell some of them were even worse. Why do developers release games in such a state the last 2-3 years ??

You can create custom SLI Profile with NVInspector for Rise of the Tomb Raider and it works, not sure if AMD allows you to do the same.
Not a game developer but work with developers almost daily. This is pretty easy to answer, mainly due to poor decisions by people with lots of power and little to no technical background who commit to unrealistic release dates to people with even more power who have to worry about quarterly earnings and stock prices.
Yeah,Driver Updates:

^^^^ Has been my main complaint with AMD for years and they have still yet to fix. AMD eventually releases drivers, but it is usually months later that they finally fix the issues. More and more I think it is a sign of their financial struggles. I think they simply just don't have the staffing needed to have developer teams working on testing major AAA titles and checking to see if their cards need some driver help to get it to run on their hardware.

this is litteraly blown way out of proportion...
fact is amds drivers are good. they dont need game ready drivers. not even nvidias so called game ready drivers are ready for the games they release to...
This isn't a very truthful post, AMD releases tonnes of game ready drivers and beta drivers quite often.

The game was released today already. NV released the driver very quickly as lightning. Where is a new driver hotfix for AMD GPUs? When? A few days later? Or a couple of months?

I'm an indie, so I don't have quite the perspective you're looking for (although I do network with developers who have AAA experience) but in software development it is very rare that you're ever able to make a long term deadline without some form of compromise. For obvious reasons the further out the deadline, the less likely you are to meet it. Shipping a title *ahead* of time is almost unheard of (I'm sure there are examples somewhere, but I can't think of any off the top of my head). Developers for whatever reason, and I'm no exception, have a tendency to set deadlines that are unrealistic. It's almost like an informal law. While this is understood implicitly by most programmers it probably goes above the heads of a lot of business types.
even if they haven't released a driver for this specific title or any other title, why should/would they have to constantly release driver for every game launch?
seems like alot of work and would constantly introduce instability.
