I probably would have refunded it too but I left it on too long. I do feel like there’s a good base game there, and I look forward to what they do with it. I think once it’s fleshed out it could be great. As it stands - I’m with you. Didn’t find the missions particularly fun and it seemed really grindy.I have about 90 minutes played. I was about to start another game, then I realized "I really haven't had any fun playing this". So I just smashed that refund button and watched Band of Brothers instead.

Can't load the games forums on steam, and ditto for launching game, says out of sync and wont connect to game server.
Steam maintenance, every Tuesday at the same time.
This is the only game I have played that shits the bed every time Steam performs maintenance.
I heard people were still having crash issues yesterday. With the ongoing issues they're having, so much buggy shit, shit that needs tuning, and being out of content, my crew has been slowing down.
Content is not the issue for me, I like to get online and kill things with friends it's a really good time that reminds me of how gaming used to be. It's the amount of bugs and issues that occur when I try to play. Steam maintenance affects other games as well if there is a cloud sync issue, I wasn't able to play the racing game I play during the steam maintenance window, but if that wasn't the case it would work fine.
I just want to fight something other than bugs and the Automatons are so overtuned that it's just not fun. Especially when the maps are completely open with no cover. They will just engage you from miles away and it never stops. Follow that up with being forced to run specific loadouts to "win" against them and I hate it. If you go an try to discuss it on their discord you're shouted down about how wrong you are. Why have all these loadouts and options if I can only run one set of items that works.
I don't know how to adjust the automatons in order to make them more enjoyable to fight but having all their weak points be so tiny or on the back of incredibly aggressive enemies is just not a good time, especially when you're being blasted by rockets from the other side of the map. If a tank gets up on a hill side at a long distance you're just fucked.
Regardless, they need to get their shit together. Stop dropping patches on Thursday then telling everyone to fuck off until Monday (Still no idea why companies do this, drop it on Monday then work on it through the week). The bugs and balancing issues are starting to take their toll.
Flashbacks to Hellgate: London.They're fucking up. I don't understand how they could release a game that is so polished and fun in some ways but complete dog shit in some ways.
Possible solutions for automations
1) EMP does bonus damage and stunlock
2) make heavy armor and blast padding mitigation stronger vs ranged attacks outside a certain range
3) make ballistic shield usable with all primary guns, not just SMG and pistols. Make reload times longer
