Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 enjoyed a strong initial launch, but like many recent game releases, encountered technical difficulties on its first day. However, the developers have acknowledged and are actively addressing player concerns!
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's Early Access Launch: Server Problems and More
Still Reached a Steam Milestone!
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's early access release faced some initial hurdles, with numerous reported technical issues. Players reported problems including server connectivity problems, frame rate drops, stuttering, black screens, and prolonged loading times. A significant issue involved a "Joining Server Bug" in the PvE Operations mode, leaving players stuck on connection screens.
Focus Home Entertainment responded to these challenges in a community update, expressing gratitude for player feedback and confirming active development of solutions. Their statement acknowledged the reported problems and assured players that fixes were underway. Further issues highlighted included crashes during introductory cutscenes and controller compatibility problems.
Focus Home Entertainment also clarified that linking Steam and Epic accounts is unnecessary for gameplay. The team emphasized that account linking is entirely optional and won't impact the gaming experience.
Players experiencing server connection difficulties are encouraged to retry matchmaking if returned to the main menu or Battle Barge after a failed connection. While inconvenient, this temporary workaround might resolve the problem for some until a permanent fix is implemented.
