    Figured I’d start a thread. Game seems really buggy (pun intended) tonight. Not getting any XP

    Yeah servers seem to be overloaded. We weren't getting any rewards.

    Played some tonight to get double XP. Jokes on me, they made it worse and I get no XP.

    Nah it's a great game. It's just blown up in popularity. Servers are getting slammed.

    hoping to dive into this once I finish Bloodborne so maybe it will have died down a bit

    I cannot find any games to join, and nobody joins mine when dropping an SOS beacon.

    seems matchmaking is broken

    Yep. Did a couple missions solo and then I didn’t get my XP on the last one. Feel like success is overwhelming them.

    Holy shit. ButchCassidy and I played a level tonight that was fucking crazy. Supposed to kill two bile titans and we didn’t even get close to either of them before we got wiped. It was pure hell from the moment we landed.

    I aimed my reinforcement pod at a bug breach last night and got stuck clipped in on the other side of it where I could melee attack the bugs but they couldn’t hit me

    killed like 20 before I got bored and killed myself with a grenade to drop back in

    When the first thing you see is a charger in your face…that’s bad. I got surrounded once by 2 chargers and committed suicide by placing an orbital strike at my own feet. Took 2 chargers out with it though by stimming enough to stay alive until it hit

    It was on hard, but yeah we just kinda dropped into Normandy there.

    Didnt do it there, but had another kill a big bug by aiming my reinforcement pod at them. So satisfying.

    I’m a level 7.

    I usually prefer solo games. The COOP in this game is extremely fun. You can hop in and out of groups and I have only had positive experiences.

    I am a little high but have a general sense of what I am doing.

    I have had to do most of the missions solo this afternoon because of matchmaking.

    Starting to get a nice mix of stratagems which is fun to test out.

    Doing a 30-40 minute mission on suicidal only to crash at the end really takes the wind out of your sails. Hopefully they get things ironed out soon.
