You don't know any of the code. All you know is that it's bugged, that doesn't mean you should automatically assume it's horribly coded.
The scream you were warned about, and I assume those two lines are maybe boundaries or where you spawn.
Wait for it to be fixed. Then if you still don't like it I think it'd be fair to say your criticisms. But right now all you're going by is a broken preview and a platform you can't even get to

if guild wars 2 servers aren't working properly and they need to fix it in a patch 1-2 weeks from now, does that make them exempt from criticism?

or if your favorite game mode author on gmod released a buggy and mostly broken gamemode, does that make him exempt from criticism for not coding it properly?

NO.

acerblocks second point was invalid, but the first point has a really good loving reason to say said server sucks.

he had beta testers, all the more reason to blame him.

The point was that he was saying the entire server sucked despite never having had a chance to try it correctly. It's obviously not ready

And no his first point wasn't a good reason. Acer can't see Rein's code. It could be perfectly coded except for one or two bugs causing the glitches we're seeing, for all we know. There's a few bugs that need to be worked out before it can be played, that's not grounds to say the game sucks.

he even had beta testers. His server should have been checked and ready to go.

I feel my point stands that I can review a project badly if it is made badly because it should work when released.

first impressions make a huge difference to whether or not a player keeps playing.
a broken server is obviously not a good first impression.

sigh
remember the broken ass server ea made for sim city 5?
people hated the game still.
people returned it for a refund.
all the critics gave it low ratings.

and as it turns out, it was perfectly coded for everything except for a few bugs which caused the server to forget up.

the same applies to a free server.

if you can't make it work at release, then people will criticize it for years to come.

Mounds Bar:
Is Reinforcements still working on his last project?
