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.”

    Re: your edit

    Why are you shocked? You yourself came here to complain about a very common problem in AAA games (always online single player). You know the way to fix that? Don’t play games from studios who care more about the analytics you generate than the games they produce.

    You paid $70-$90 to not be able to play a game. You could have taken that money and bought 2-5 indie games that would actually let you play them because the designers aren’t out to sell data on how people interact with their product.

      You’re telling me I shouldn’t be surprised re my edit, which basically noted everyone’s poor replies, but then you switch gears and make it about the servers. These are not the same thing, and you’re par for the crappy attitude course.
