Just loaded the new game. Can’t even connect thanks to full servers. Of course Day One issues are to be expected, but the biggest problem with this is you can’t play singleplayer. You can’t set up your keybinds. You can’t set up your graphics settings. That’s just irritating and pretty shitty design. Always-on connections for the loss.
E: LOL, and this is why there isn’t a gaming “community” and I leave VoIP/in game text chat off. Comments are “Fuck you for trying to play a game by a popular studio.”
I’m trying to imagine what it would have been like back in the day before dev ran servers and matchmaking services to see every single server of a game full to capacity for hours at a time.
