The game experiences occasional bugs, particularly with area loading and the human capturing system, which can lead to frustrating gameplay. However, players acknowledge that these issues are likely to be addressed in future updates. Overall, while stability is currently a concern, it is expected to improve over time.
- “Though the game was a little buggy at times, I realize as a moderately recent release these issues will probably be worked out soon. Sometimes when you load into the area, the selection glitches and doesn't teleport you or allow you to change the selected areas. This can be solved by exiting (by pressing and holding the escape key) and reopening the game. At times, loading from screen to screen is a little odd, and the human capturing system can be somewhat frustrating, as sometimes you capture humans and other times you release them.”
