Game won't launch
I try to launch game and it never launches, says 'playing' for all of a few seconds before it just stops on it's own. I've restarted computer, uninstalled/reinstalled game, and verified game files. None of which has fixed the problems. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a fix?

Same. There are some listed hoops they want us to try to fix it, but at this point I'm just going to wait until they figure it out on their end. Honestly, I feel that if your game is on steam, it should just be click and go like...well..nearly every other game of steam.

I now get an error when I try to run the .exe directly:

"The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCR110.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem."

this is something to do with the visual c++ and the game has anticheat that will not allow you to open the game if it is not uptodate. very annoying and confusing bruv

Glad the devs sent out a broken game.

I refunded it, my problem list:

First I couldn't install, got an error

Reinstalled

Started, couldn't even get past the language setting screen, crash.

Got into game, can't play multiplayer,quick match or co-op.

Might try it in a few weeks , if people still play it.

What a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of a launch, real shame because apparently the game is good.

Found a fix yesterday, here is the video I found. I had to do a copy of the .dll file and move it. Hope this helps!

Yeah, sitting in the same boat...I don't usually buy games this close to release, but this looked so interesting and fun I just HAD to give it a shot.

Damn shame this is what I find waiting for me...though that video worked, so props to that!

Hey Boys, buddy was having the same issue with the DLL, just download:

Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679#

Just got for x64 and you should be good to go.
