I've been playing Darktide for half a year so I decided to give this game a try.

What.the.fuck.

I get kicked from every game, no one says a damn thing and I have no idea what's even happening.

Back to playing solo it is then.

Yeah, sometimes people forget they have their party set to open (or don't know how to turn it off). I have started setting my lobby to open and picking a mission myself.

For me I cant accept the friends requests from my friends. Steam forums for the game suggest just kicking people until your ffiend can find your game. Ive only played it solo because I have3n5 been able to play with friends yet.

If you join a game from your friends list in Steam, it works every time. Haven't yet gotten the in game social menu to work properly.

From the patch notes:

Some people are unable to accept friend requests. This is mostly an issue cross platform

My issue is that I'm trying to play the game with some friends who don't have PCs, and I don't have a PS5. So "join from friends list in Steam" isn't an option.

Hello fellow Reject.

Matchmaking is spotty at times but usually if I log in, people hop on to my ship. Quick matchmaking tends to work fine usually as well. Sure they at times insta kick me as well its not too often.

I start a map and go into pod, 1 min later it's a full group. If you kick/afk after a map, you need to restart to get the matchmaking working again.

That said, if I want to join, the quickplay works almost always, and if not, just restart. I think the amount of players online is giving them some desync issues.

TBF, mine's CTDing at map load (atmo drop sequence) ever since the mech patch. 🤷🏼‍♂️ I haven't been able to play in days. 😢

On the other hand, I'm rounding the bend on a Kill Team squad of printed Helldivers to get to the table this weekend. 🤪

If you don't know what to do, dive and dive again. And again. And again. And again. And again.
