Atomic Heart
Atomic Heart was launched with several issues including characters getting stuck in the environment, file saves breaking, and weapons failing to load. There were also game-breaking bugs that hindered players' progression, sometimes even at the game’s intro level. However, after several patches, the game's stability has improved significantly from its initial launch.
Crime Boss: Rockay City
Crime Boss: Rockay City, a first-person shooter developed by Ingame Studios, had numerous bugs and glitches upon release. These issues ranged from interactable objects becoming un-interactable, to glitches that mysteriously removed clothes, to gun sounds endlessly repeating. Despite a rocky start, subsequent patches and updates have led to a much more stable game experience.
Forza Motorsport
The reboot of Forza Motorsport, developed by Turn 10 Studios, faced a myriad of problems at launch. Players reported freezes during matchmaking, after practice, and while changing maps. Previous bugs that were believed to be fixed, such as one resetting player progress, resurfaced. The game also suffered from significant framerate drops, especially on PC, making the experience less than ideal for Forza enthusiasts.
Mortal Kombat 1 (On Switch)
A modern-day Mortal Kombat game on the Nintendo Switch was bound to face some challenges due to system limitations. Upon its release, the game was plagued with issues like slow loading animations and cutscenes, frequent framerate drops, and poor texture quality. These performance issues often led to dropped combos, leaving players questioning whether it was their fault or the game's.
Payday 3
Payday 3, developed by Starbreeze Studios, was riddled with glitches and issues at launch. These issues were particularly prevalent around its always-online matchmaking, which caused game crashes and server disconnects. However, the studio quickly addressed these issues and released updates to improve the game's stability.
Redfall
Redfall, another game on our list, also faced numerous issues at launch. However, just like the other games mentioned, developers have worked tirelessly to address these issues and improve the overall gaming experience.
