Space Marine 2 Server Issues Don't Deter It From Hitting Milestone on Steam

Despite a bumpy start with launch-day technical difficulties, Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 has achieved a significant milestone on Steam!

Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 Early Access Launch: Server Problems and More

Still a Steam Success!

Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2's early access launch earlier this week encountered several technical hurdles. Players reported various issues, including server connectivity problems, frame rate drops, stuttering, black screens, and prolonged loading times. A common complaint involved a "Joining Server Bug" in PvE Operations, leaving players stuck on the connection screen.

Focus Home Entertainment acknowledged these problems in a community update, expressing gratitude for player feedback and assuring players that solutions are underway. The statement confirmed active work on resolving the reported issues, specifically mentioning crashes during initial cinematic sequences and controller malfunctions.

Importantly, Focus Home clarified that linking Steam and Epic accounts is not mandatory for gameplay. The company emphasized that account linking is entirely optional and won't impact the gaming experience.

For players experiencing server connection issues, the team suggests retrying matchmaking if returned to the main menu or Battle Barge after a failed attempt. This temporary workaround might resolve the problem for some until a permanent fix is released. For additional troubleshooting steps, please refer to our comprehensive guide (link below).
