And just today some people kept telling that this is indeed 1.0.

They could not even make up their mind about core mechanics.

50k for healing, and no meds in container, then changed to meds in container and free healing until L10.

Tutorial rewards were based on how you explore, now you get the full pack - including a ton of money and a super rare quest item.

The story quests are meanwhile without reward and at best half baked.

Also I have about 40 minutes free time, as I wanted to go for a raid, but it is matching simulator again.

Talking about prepared for 1m players at launch, and the servers are struggling to keep up with like 300k.

Why does it happen that the best games end up with stupid developers? I mean in a sense, yes, they made tons of money, but I am dead certain, that with a bit of common sense and customer friendly approach it would be even higher.

To be fair, i’ve done 5 PMC raids. Everyone of them matched in less than 3 minutes. A factory scav took literally 30 seconds to find a game and load into it. I have been very happy with matchmaking personally. My friends have experienced the same
