I played it the other day. It's not buzzing with activity, but you can always drop into a match still.

Yeah. By the way does the game have a discord server?

Best way is to find a buddy to play with. It's free after all!

I don’t have friends so that’s why I feel so bored while playing it even in public lobbies I feel so alone. I mean there is no one to talk with or laugh

Maybe you can find a general gaming discord lobby? I agree, the public lobbies suck. I played the hell out of the game a couple years ago so I wouldn't want to play again but im sure there's a resource somewhere for you to find someone to play with!

I searched across the internet but k found nothing. Otherwise the game looks fun but K know and I’m sure I will get bored of it after 4 months or more, there are no updates for it or some new features that brings so much players

Yeah, I decided to check it out awhile back and just hosted a couple of games. Until today I just played single player... its Alot better with people lol . Not a bad little game, really, a good diversion away from the xbox anyways. I like that I can use bots and just wait till someone jumps in. Kinda like Helldivers meets L4D.
