[2020] At this point I don't care about fire, enemy scaling, or warhounds - I can't even matchmake.

Ever since I bought this game during the $3 sale, I've been unable to matchmake. Group set to Open, looking in the Daily Missions (which must be popular), waiting for over an hour - Nobody. Nothing. I can solo a Challenging mission faster than I can find another agent go play with.

SHD sheparding is no better. There are some great people calling for backup, but most are unresponsive, afk, or kick you. I've gotten to Shepard Rank 10 and can't take it any more.

I've tried LFG servers and clans and subreddits but they're either dead, full of DZ gank squad wannabes, or doing highly specific tasks like hunter puzzles.

I want to play this game, I want to love the systems and the aesthetic and really invest in it - but I can't. This multiplayer game doesn't have a functioning multiplayer.
