Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Early Access: Server Issues and More

Steam Milestone Reached Despite Challenges

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's early access release earlier this week experienced some technical difficulties. Players reported various problems, including server connectivity issues, frame rate drops, stuttering, black screens, and prolonged loading times. A significant problem involved the PvE Operations mode, where players were frequently stuck on the server connection screen.

Focus Home Entertainment responded to these reports with a community update. They expressed gratitude for player feedback and confirmed that solutions are underway. The statement acknowledged common problems such as crashes during initial cutscenes and controller malfunctions.

Furthermore, Focus Home clarified that linking Steam and Epic accounts is not necessary to play the game. This linking feature is entirely optional and will not affect gameplay.

For players experiencing persistent server connection problems, the developers suggest trying matchmaking again if returned to the main menu or Battle Barge after a failed connection. This temporary workaround might resolve the issue for some until a permanent fix is deployed. For additional troubleshooting steps, consult our comprehensive guide (link below).
