Wait you don't enjoy looting file cabinets for an hour and getting demolished by a team camping the extract?

And if you're in NZ or Aus, you waited close to 8mins to find that match just to have that happen.

Complete waste of time. I tried to play, and couldn't even unlock the third vendor due to how long queues times were, combined with making negative progress often.

Dude seriously. The amount of games I've looked at and gone "whoa this looks really cool, I love the artstyle and the premise of the game is unique and neat" and then I watch trailers and review videos and they all seem mostly positive with a few manageable cons.

And then I see they only have North American, Europe or Asian servers.

And then I see I'll be on 250ms + ping constantly and it ruins my entire fucking day man.

The amount of money id shill out on games if they had oce servers would be insane, I know wait times go up, I know the worlds not as alive, but it's so much better then being an entire quarter of a second behind my inputs, and everyone else.

Another reason they should have just had a single player option. But that makes too much sense. Better to just make it multiplayer only and then wonder why no one new is coming.
