After trademark disputes<\/a>, multiple<\/a> delays<\/a>, and everything in between,<\/a> FNTASTIC has finally released The Day Before on Steam in early access. But it is not off to the best start right now with many players complaining, citing server and performance issues as among the biggest problems. <\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

At time of writing, The Day Before’s Steam page<\/a> has been flooded with negative reviews from users. Many criticize that despite being labeled an open-world game or an MMO<\/a>, in reality, it is an extraction shooter,<\/a> as some players<\/a> have pointed out<\/a>. <\/p>\n

One reviewer posted<\/a> about how their character was randomly falling through the map as soon as the opening cutscene ended. My colleague Mark Medina actually suffered the same thing himself, and he was kind enough to upload the first 22 minutes of the game along with the infamous bug right at the beginning, which you can check out below:<\/p>\n

That is, of course, assuming you were able to get into the game at all, as many players aired their frustrations online about the server issues<\/a>.<\/p>\n
