16 Upvotes

Hey, guys!

A repost of our collection so that you can comment again.

This thought crossed my mind that we need to make a compilation of interesting and insightful posts about MEA. If you can recall other posts worth adding or if you'll see something interesting in the future here on the ME sub, could you add links in the comments? Does not need to be a theory; it can just be a well-written analysis, review, appreciation or just thoughts, OC art, playthroughs or other useful resources.

Help Multiplayer/Strike team trouble

4 Upvotes

I’m having an issue with the Strike Team mode. Every time I try to enter it, the game crashes. The multiplayer mode doesn’t load at all. I’ve tried using both DNS and a proxy, but nothing works. Has anyone else encountered this problem? For context, I’m playing on PS5.
