In case you didn't know, AMD's most recent drivers broke C&C3, Red Alert 3 and similar games using the same engine. I was not aware of the situation until last night when I wanted to play some good old CnC3 with my buddies. And it wont work. Errors out every single time.
Well after some searching around I found I am not the only one. It was reported when the driver first came out:

And of course somebody informed AMD's driver team over AMD community forum. Too bad here is the report from one of their employee:
So of course many people were upset. Check people's response here. Most of them are very civil

And what does AMD do again? Locked the thread out of any further discussion
More discussion over reddit

Of course we are going to have people defending AMD here again, as usual. However I just wanna point out that openly saying you are not gonna repair a fairly played game (go check CnC3's online player number, it is not dead by any means) in driver is quite a d*ick move.
Now I need to see if I can run CnC3 on my macbook with some crappy Intel iGPU
