OK, this is going to sound a little whiny, but I'm just exasperated.
Wreckfest is a brilliant game. The gameplay, the graphics, the physics, the learning curve - all top-notch.
But it's seriously damaged for me by the multiplayer issues. Online play requires that we go through the hassle of rolling back a version (which in turn, implies having to use GOG Galaxy. Sucks for those of us who dislike launchers and prefer the offline installers, but I accept I'm the one making my life more difficult there.)
As for LAN play, which is a major reason that I bought this game - it's utterly broken, with that "You are already logged in. Retry?" error whenever you try to join a LAN game.
I've raised support tickets several times, and have nothing to report. No response, no progress. I'd be happy even if they'd ignored me but posted a patched version of the game anyway - but no.
Honestly, I'm feeling hurt at this lack of response. GoG needs more AAA racing games and Wreckfest is a great start, but a half-working product like this? Frustrating.
Anyone else had better luck with LAN multiplay?
