Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Early Access: Server Problems and Solutions
Steam Milestone Reached Despite Launch Day Challenges
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's early access release earlier this week wasn't without its problems. Players reported various issues, including server connectivity problems, frame rate drops, stuttering, black screens, and extended loading times. The "Joining Server Bug" in PvE Operations mode, where players get stuck on the connection screen, proved particularly troublesome.
Focus Home Entertainment responded to player feedback, confirming that fixes are underway. They expressed gratitude for player reports and detailed known issues, including crashes during initial cutscenes and controller malfunctions. The statement also clarified that linking Steam and Epic accounts is entirely optional and doesn't impact gameplay.
For players experiencing server connection failures resulting in a return to the main menu or Battle Barge, the team suggests retrying matchmaking. This temporary workaround may resolve the issue for some until a permanent patch is released. For additional troubleshooting steps, consult our comprehensive guide (link below).
