Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Early Access: Server Issues and More
Steam Milestone Achieved Despite Challenges
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's early access release earlier this week saw a number of reported technical difficulties. Players experienced various problems, including server connectivity issues, frame rate drops, stuttering, black screens, and prolonged loading times. A significant issue reported was the "Joining Server Bug" in PvE Operations, leaving players trapped on the connection screen.
Focus Home Entertainment responded to player feedback, confirming that solutions are underway. Their community post expressed gratitude for player reports and outlined other common problems such as crashes during initial cutscenes and controller malfunctions. Importantly, they clarified that linking Steam and Epic accounts is not mandatory for gameplay.
Focus Home advised players encountering server problems to retry matchmaking 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, please refer to our comprehensive guide (link below).
