Many PC gamers from across the web are reporting that the new driver set has broken compatibility with several popular DirectX 9 titles, such as Command and Conquer 3, Red Alert 3, both game's expansions, Battle for Middle Earth 1 + 2 and The Witcher Enhanced Edition. We have installed several of these titles onto our test system and have confirmed that these games crash on startup with AMD's Radeon Software 17.2.1 or newer drivers, but function on the companies older Radeon Software iterations.

Are they trying to convince PC gamers not to buy their products because that is how you do it.

This early access driver is being provided for users who have had issues launching a small number of DirectX 9 based games. This alpha driver has not been fully tested by AMD and is not recommended for general use.
