Sony Bad, But 177 Countries making the game unplayable with the forced PSN stunt, and Over a 100k negative reviews in a day for this nonsense. Forced them to backtrack this requirement.
We stood For Democracy. The Players will Reign.
Great game, good studio. Big owners are just doo doo

Unplayable. Shows a mouse cursor ingame and my standard pc mouse cursor. At the same time on the screen moving at different speeds. So they aren't even consistently the same distance apart tried sooo much trouble shooting, Trash company Charging an overpriced amount for an unplayable heap of trash. And they Don't care to fix it. Almost zero updates and support, and this has been an ongoing issue for more then half a year now

New Review:
Solid game, Meta guns and equipment take some fun out of it, but the devs are clearly up for playing with anything to get it tweeked just how they want it to be. Every update can change the game ecosystem drastically. I go from 24/3 k/d's Consistently to 2/11 Overnight to an update. I do not run meta gear. But the fluidity of the balancing in this game is wild. Still fun, yet rage inducing

Original Review:
First 9 Games I played. Never got to finish A single one. Crashed every single time. 0/10 Broken game.
Lots of verifying game files and reinstalling, drivers all updated and everything is nice and tidy.

The FInals is clearly not a finished game.
Will change review if they can patch and make the game stable

Unreal Engine crash logs mostly show literally nothing. When it does it is graphical crashes.
Turned all graphics settings to low quality and turned on AMD graphics protocols. Still have crashing. Pathetic to have to run a game on less quality to maybe get lucky and not crash.

Hackers here and there. Game broke, can't even use the in-game report option. Play a game with a friend and get DC"d because they life in a asian country. Loose all gear you brought in. Can't play the game for 3 weeks because a graphics driver wasn't up to date when a new update came out on my nvidia GPU. And now during the Sunset, every one is boosted to endgame content. Sweet that's fair enough. Oh yea I can't play I'll be mid run, either in heavy combat or literally doing nothing, and I'll get 'redropped' (deployed) into the same lobby, but loosing all equipment and loot i had on me. I can return to my team mates standing over my body and none of my stuff is there, it despawns when i randomly selects me to be halo dropped back onto the map we are already playing on. Broken game from the start. Yet I love it, super fun to play. Just wish I could play it. Would be nice to enjoy the sunset, and even get an hour into the game without being sabotaged by the servers of this game or the crappy anti-cheat that can't catch all these smurf accounts, somehow playing in my low mmr lobby, as i camp and watch them kill 12+ players attacking their drill. Madness

The most pleasant Cancer I have tasted in a long time...

Have uncountable hours playing Age Of Empires 2 over the past 18 years, this game has no rival, whether grand strategy is your hearts desire or just messing around, this game has always been and will forever be my #1 (don't let my hours fool you, with AOE2 AOE2-2.0 AOE2RE AOE2DE my hours on this most recent version are comparable to a drop of rain from the monsoon of time spent in AOE2). Thankyou Microsoft for blessing us with this holiest of games
