I’m bummed I missed my window to return it through steam. I downloaded it, gave it a couple tries and just couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to be doing or when the fun was supposed to start. I couldn’t figure out how to play with other people or what guns I was supposed to use against whatever enemy. None of it made sense and seemed like it was all just hype with no substance. It’s still in my library, but I don’t think it’ll ever get a reinstall. I wish I could just gift it to someone else
Have you tried watching any videos that explain how to play or talking to anyone in your squad when you play online? It’s a game meant to be played as co-op, not really solo.
Assuming you aren’t trolling… If you want to try again, how to play with others is really simple. In the world map, you can press “R” to quick play and it will put you in a mission with a couple people in it. You can also throw a SOS during the mission (idk if it works if you set matchmaking to friends only in settings, try making it public).
I watched a few gameplay videos, but nothing educational. I was just looking for a demo to see what it played like and figured the game would guide me the rest of the way. I’m being completely honest, I never figured out how to play with anyone else. I went to the main room, picked my mission, shot down by myself and died repeatedly. I never thought to try the quick play option. I promise I’m not trolling or trying to yuck anyone else’s yum, I just don’t think I’m made for the game or the game is made for me.
I definitely appreciate the info you gave me. If I ever do decide to give it another shot, I’ll keep that information in mind, but I don’t think that’ll be happening anytime soon. I’ve got plenty of other games in my library to keep me busy without this weird learning curve
Unfortunately it’s one of many games that you’re supposed to spend your time researching on YouTube and scrolling on Twitter to understand. There’s even a tutorial but it’s basically nothing beyond basic movement mechanics.
