Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Early Access Encounters Server Problems

Steam Milestone Achieved Despite Challenges

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's early access launch had some bumps, with players reporting various technical problems. Issues included server connectivity problems, frame rate drops, stuttering, black screens, and prolonged loading screens. A significant complaint centered on a "Joining Server Bug" in PvE Operations, leaving players stuck on connection screens.

Focus Home Entertainment responded to player feedback, expressing gratitude and confirming active work on resolving these issues. Their statement acknowledged the reported problems and assured players that fixes are underway. They also highlighted other common issues such as crashes during initial cutscenes and controller malfunctions.

Furthermore, Focus Home clarified that linking Steam and Epic accounts is not mandatory for gameplay. The team emphasized that account linking is entirely optional and won't impact the gaming experience.

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