Yeah, I just like the looks of the store armor better.
I can always buy store credits I feel like it takes too long for a future item.
Or to buy a warbond.

The server issues are a huge bummer because the game rules.

Same here.Game is super buggy on PS5 at the moment. Will let it sit and come back later. Finished a mission and I’m frozen on a grey screen.
I’m going to leave it for a couple of days. No rush and I don’t want to start getting irritated by it.

This is fantastic.
You might also consider uploading to Twitter, especially if you tube won't allow it due to the music. Both would be even better.

Yup. It’s better in some ways, but it can still take many attempts before you can actually join a game and play. And then sometimes I can’t access upgrade screens or upgrades won’t register.
Hopefully things get fixed before everyone’s attention shifts to the next big thing
Edit: currently seems impossible to join anything. Fuck this

My six year old daughter hates scary robots but she loves watching (and playing against) the bugs.
I’ve yet had the chance to find alone time to play against the automatons, but wow, I’m looking forward to it.
Great video.
Love this game.

Finally had a chance to sit down and play with a friend and of course the servers are terrible and we aren't even getting rewards post mission completion, gonna shelve it until they can get things in order.

Didn't go down.
It's live maintenance, you can still play. Keep trying if it doesn't load you into the game.

During this down time I was thinking about how everything just comes together for this game and how they nailed the formula and concept for this.
Even the actual structure that's tied with the galactic war metanarrative is really clever, as the content is drip fed to the players in a way that doesn't seem artificial and that makes sense and engages the player base towards a goal.
I mean, it was a developer decision to do it like this, but instead of feeling like they were crappy for arbitrarily gating content and only launching with very few (4) planets available, it felt really rewarding to collectively liberate the first planet and unlock the next 2 (that were completely new biomes).
And the best part about it is that the ridiculously little effect each match has on the overall progress of the war also works really well with the satire and social commentary aspect of the game.
Man, I really wanted to play today.

I gotta pretty decent Super Credit farm: (it's kind of common sense)
Stratagems - Eagle Air Strike / Orbital Gatling / Orbital Precision / Jump Pack - Take out anything if needed and Jump pack for extra mobility (Hold Space or X? on PS5 to activate)
Light Armor / Scout perk - Less Detection and run faster/stam recovery.
Pick a mission on Easy difficulty with a simple objective. Avoid patrols/nests/etc. Only do Points of Interests and the main objective.
This takes about 10-12 minutes for me, usually nets 30+ SC and a couple extra medals. Make sure you grenade any storage doors (blue doors/orange doors). If you get 1 or more of the 2 man door bunkers, well, that sucks. I've tried everything to blow them up and they are sturdy af.
With this method you can easily farm 100 SC in an hour or so.
To me this makes their premium model pretty trivial unless you are just impatient or time constrained. I like that just playing casually you can get the premium Warbond within a week or so.

Played for one hour just now. Seems to be stable. But it was probably a random coincidence.

Marksman rifle and anti-tank sniperWhat weapons are people taking to robot planet? They’re scary and much harder? It’s like an end game area.

They're mini nukes. There are bigger nukes you have to launch and then you get a show.

My buddies tried several things.
Shooting it through the launch phase with different weapons.
Calling in stratagems bombs on it.
Even trying to ride on top.
Nothing worked for us.

Insane. I haven’t tried yet. Someone I know was having issues. I was hoping to play tonight. I read where people weren’t getting rewards.
