Users report significant stability issues, including persistent glitches, slow buffering, and erratic export settings. Many express frustration over a lack of communication from developers regarding updates and fixes, leading to a frustrating user experience with outdated tutorials and frequent bugs. Overall, the game's stability is perceived as poor, with numerous unresolved technical problems.
“I'm suspecting the programmers are lazy to fix the glitches and bugs.”
“I am so sick and tired of having to email and contact the developers for endless bugs and glitches.”
“It always stays at 59.94 or something you didn't tell it to export as. Clips take centuries to buffer and be able to preview, despite the many times the file has been opened. There is absolutely zero communication on updates and other ways the developers screw up things that were working just fine. The tutorials that I should not have to go to for help are several years out of date. Clips are scrambled, and a completely different video is in the place of another that has absolutely zero connection with each other. The timeline needle completely freezes, and it doesn't load any preview, but still plays audio.”
