Absolute utter incompetence.
These are the things that are hurting this industry. Does anyone have the original game size, for comparison?
The player limit is a joke.

I can't work out what this means - do they have server capacity for 10,000 across multiple game types... ...or do they have over 9000 people waiting for one of just 192 slots to become available..?

Vivdly remember when they got a New glitch on one of the last pod racer tracks.discovered It on the week the remaster was released
When you dropped from a platform to an área below, depending on How you Fell, your pod insta exploded bc the poligonal structure in the remaster would clip below the track, and this triggered the explosivo.
I got a clip of that and sent It to aspyr. Guess what? They never answered, and they never fixed that

Did they expect private servers to pop up? Launching anything with that number as max seems ridiculous.

I was tempted to get it but ff7 rebirth needed completing first. Glad I held off.

Apparently servers are too expensive, even for a studio that don’t care about “the bottom-line”.

Thank you for the follow up. That's incredible bloat or some super enhanced assets. What is the excuse the dev end may have?\

naturally they are not free. But when 99% of all buyers just can't play your game properly, I don't know if its SP is worthwhile at all, many would refund it on steam. So all your 10+k sales turn into a number those 3 servers can handle which cannot be a revenue making the whole project profitable.

Every number in that tweet is an incredible blunder. I'm still in shock.

Wait, so they didn't implement crossplay in the one game that actually made sense for it, and then limit that game to allow 200 players online total? And this remaster of an old game costs the same as a AAA game and is a 64 GB install?

They’re not a dev. They’re a shitty port house with delusions of grandeur.

Looks like the first game was around 5.9 GB, the second 5.2 GB. So at 63 GB it's mushroomed 500%.

Aspyr are fucking useless. How can you release a port of the game that isn't as good as the original release? The price is ridiculous too, they can fucking jog on.

This is a monumental fuck up. Holy shit. Like do they not realise how popular these games were back in the day? And they release it with 3 fucking servers? For a classic multiplayer game as big as this? Actually braindead.

Saw some people on Twitter saying the switch version is just zoomed and cropped 4:3 for widescreen. I just fucking can’t. They had one job and couldn’t fuckin do it.

They fuck up almost every time. Jedi Knight 2 on Switch was fucked due to absolutely no quality of life improvements. No aim assist meant that it was unreasonably difficult to hit enemies.

Yall aint heard?
Servers are expensive to run and shit.
If they actually, seriously, launched this game with 200 player max servers - how long do you think the servers for this game are going to last, period?

So that was why that game on the switch felt like ass to me? I gave up on that one like an hour in.

Looking at the steam reviews they enabled more servers, but it appears they don't work well.

Just saw someplace else that the launch day patch removes the option to invert the Y axis on the controls.

Well, I have OG Battlefront and Battlefront 2 on Xbox (given away free with GWG). Have those installed. Saved $30 (and still looks good)

Surely this is just some weird fuck up or something, like they only have the test servers live or something?

When the publisher shits on a beloved franchise of your past.
I mean, I don't think nobody asked for this, specially not new players.
Is this a move so people can now say "the modern battlefront 2 is the best value now"?
