- “Yeah, the fact that the game is cool, I found some errors, bugs, and glitches in the game. When I was just playing around in 'my office' and settings, I pressed cloud save and was curious what it would do (even though it's my first game). It destroyed the game; the cars and their names were bugged (the Reaper car was called the Nissan GTR in that case, and I only had that one car). The UI/menus were not showing up, and last but not least, the orders took a long time (like 12 minutes) due to the bug. Please fix this.”
