I'd wait this one out, folks. Too many players and not enough servers.

Are you the one joking? Issues logging in are well documented. I wasn't able to play all weekend because of the server capacity issues, managed to get in the other night by retrying for 15 minutes. As you noted they dropped an update today which adds an AFK timer which should help this problem significantly.

Game is definitely fun, replay value remains to be seen as there isn't much variety in gameplay.

So, you pay for it, redeem it, install it and then launch it. It will, very likely, immediately throw an error at launch about "Server at capacity". You can't even proceed to training part.

Workaround:
1. Find a person who is already playing this game
2. Add him/her on steam
3. Go to his/her profile on Steam
4. Click on Join Game option from the profile

The game starts without any server issues. There are plenty of nice folks on reddit who posted their steam id and immediately accepting friend requests.
I bought the game yesterday and did that. Discord community was fantastic as well. Mic is not mandatory but really useful to have. Specially if you want to split the group to finish side quests in parallel.

I bought it through Steam, but refunded it after an hour. It's ok. The environment is gorgeous. I'm not crazy about the key codes for drops. The game feels a little clunky to me. It's definitely fun.

Theres much better games if you haven't played these yet, but want a similar more polished experience: Warhammer Darktide, Remnant 1 + 2.
Darktide??? That game is horrible!!
