I don't even host a server and I'm 100+10000000% in agreement here. I would like to see some actual reasonable responses and actions on this major issue. If I stood up at system for work that was as unreliable in core features as this build I would expect to be fired and blacklisted. This is not the server providers fault, it's not the server owner and it's not the players. This is a core system, if not THE core system, of the game and it doesn't work. The entire loop is now broken. That influx of 30,000 unique players during the free-weekend are likely operating under false pretenses. The game runs great on some servers, and like pants on others. That's fine. Persistence being broken would take time for new players to actually notice, and in fact they might never notice depending on their style of play. But the big things right now are cars (still kinda iffy) and base-building (in no way worth the effort EVEN IF persistence worked. 3 hours to build, 15 minutes to dismantle). This is supposed to be a feature complete and stable build. We've mostly gotten over the feature complete part. But this is not stable. It's fun in spurts, but that's not acceptable for a full price retail released game.

My only issue there is the times I've sat "unconcious" for 15 minutes. FIFTEEN MINUTES! Then I died. Another instance had my uncon for, I'm assuming, eternity because I was actually dead, friend made it to my body and confirmed this while I was still staring at "you and unconcious" If we can work out a reasonable timeframe I'm all for it but anything over 5 minutes realtime is just going to have me ALT+F4 9 times out of 10
