Soft-Locked since the beginning of Early Access I can't be the only one

Same issue I've been having since early access (September 16th,2025) but they still haven't addressed it nor do they seem to care as they roll out the cash grabs and fixes to glitches that could've been patched at a later date honestly in my opinion pretty soon the game is gonna implode on itself because the "culture" they are trying to attract will be repelled by the money scheme unless of course you got brain-rot people who suck up whatever EA dishes out compelled by their favorite content creator who i might add are being sponsored (paid) to promote the positive side for this game without addressing the concerns that I've been seeing across the forums, reddit and X. (P.S I actually enjoy playing the game but I would like to see an effort being made within the community more people waking up to the truth and not sucking up).
