Ultimaspirit posted Apparently before the actual game download started it downloaded a "combat" mode I found out is to tide you over until the game is done, essentially it puts you in a huge room and it constantly spawns enemies, so its never ending combat.

I think it's supposed to get you used to fighting for when the game is ready. That download was only a little over 7 gb. More topics from this board Would you play through a game with a cringe story if the gameplay is amazing?
