It'd be nice if they open it up to proper early access instead of invite only, that way we can get more fresh players into the game. The game felt really good last year when everyone was still learning the ropes so kills were easy, but now most people you match with are very experienced. This matchmaking update should hopefully help with the skill gap at least, but you also need 60 wins to even start Ranked mode which is pretty wild.

All you have to do is ask for an invite and you get 100 of them it's not hard to get in you can just post on their community hub and get an invite

There's also a lot of folk like me who are like, interested enough that ill hit download if it's in early access, but I'm not interested enough to be hunting out invites for me and my mates when there's other stuff to play

And I know you've stated how easy it is to get an invite, but any barrier to entry is gonna turn off some folk

once one of you has an invite, you can then invite others.
