Did they ever actually get the game working as it should?

I checked getting on for a year ago and apparently it was still in a bit of a state then.

That being said, even though people were furious about the performance, the lack of depth was what really made the game a disappointment.

this right here. I didn't experience any bugs at all on pc but the game is just bad, the world doesn't feel lived in, and the gameplay is just meh (some guns were fun though)

Working public transit would have gone a long way towards this kind of immersion. It's a damn shame too, because the system technically exists, and there are even placeholders for stations.

I think there were a lot of resources put towards getting the whole damn thing to run on last gen XB and PS4 which just made so many things impossible, and obviously you dont really want to have a couple versions out there without feature parity. They ended up with it anyway, but I think we may have seen a more complete product on launch had those dev resources not been needed for the older consoles.
