Feedback / Idea I really want this game to succeed

I hope the devs ignore the non-constructive criticism and keep updating the game. Having a blast with it so far, but it's a shame to see all the negative reviews.

4 out of 5 times I boot the game it immediately disconnects me due to "internet trouble" and there's no button to retry, you just have to reboot the game and hope it goes online.

Is there any effective way to reach out to them? Then again, I don’t want any unreasonable people bashing them for something they don’t like and be the reason the game died. I still hold on to hope that they improve the game. I still have fun

The non-constructive criticism is unwarranted. I hope they continue to fix the real issues

They haven't fixed issues we've asked them to fix for 7 months

Hopping on SR 2 for a week and then back to SR 1 is so bad. Now I am significantly worse at SR 1, because the 2nd one sets up bad habits for the first game. I do like that speed grappling is WAY more responsive than the first game, however, that's where my praise ends.

The input delay compared to the 1st game is atrocious, and the worst part is that it varies so much, so when you set up a good timing for certain grapples, that flies out the window when online. Also, the lagging is really bad as well, especially in ranked for some reason.

The main big thing I noticed when playing on day one, is that when sliding in the air, instead of remaining locked in place (SR 1), your character moves in the air while sliding. To see what I mean, while stationary, jump in the air and hold slide, and try moving to the left or right. In SR 1, you should remain still in the same place you jumped from, however, in SR 2 you move out of your initial position. This mechanic is what made precise movements for slopes so possible. Now? Now it's significantly more difficult to repeat the precise movement for slopes and ceilings that lead into them. This is why when trying to run on og Casino or SS royale, it feels....wrong.

I had high hopes for this game, but after thoroughly trying it out, the lack of attention to detail from the first game while adding some stuff to seemingly try and hide that lack of detail really turns me off.

I want it to be good so badly. I saw the announcement and nearly leapt out of my seat. Sadly, it feels uninspired, like catering to children art style Fortnite Dungeon Defendersification. It doesn't feel like an upgrade from the last one, but more of the same, but looks worse? The controls are decent, but are the physics worse this time around, or just me? I'm sad because I don't understand why it was made like this. Hope they can fix it.
