After many trials and tribulations, the survival shooter The Day Before finally went into Early Access on December 7. However, the enthusiasm for the title is rather low. This is due to numerous bugs and unfulfilled promises.

After many trials and tribulations, the survival shooter The Day Before finally entered Early Access on December 7. However, the enthusiasm for the title is rather low. This is due to numerous bugs and unfulfilled promises

For most interested parties, The Day Before had such great appeal because the title had been touted by developer Fntastic as an open world survival MMO  But as it turns out a few days after the release, only the survival aspect is true.
Instead of an open world, fans will have to deal with a extraction shooter mechanic that already exists in abundance. MMO gameplay has also been left out. Because, as Play3 reports, there is a maximum of 35 players in a lobby. That is why Fntastic is now trying to delete corresponding tags and videos that talk about open world and MMO

The Day Before has also not exactly covered itself in glory when it comes to bugs and glitches  For example, the movements of other players do not necessarily match their actual actions, which is a particular hindrance in PvP. For example, you can see other players walking around with a tablet in their hands, even though they have already picked up a weapon.
In addition to PvP, the shooter also wants to offer PvE gameplay in the form of zombies. But so far there has been very little to see of the undead danger

Whether you want to pay 40 euros for these false promises and bugs is of course up to you. If you enjoy the basic game mechanics and don’t mind bugs, you can have fun with The Day Before.
After all, Fntastic is already working on fixing bugs and released a first update on December 8th. More will hopefully follow in the coming days and weeks
