Said an update over at the game's official forums:

"Homefront's dedicated servers are currently at capacity, and this is causing some matchmaking issues for players attempting to join an online match." 

"The demand for the servers has outstripped our expecttions - so although we're thrilled that Homefront is proving to be so popular, we're doing all we can to bring more servers online to cope with this demand ASAP."

Not about to let this opportunity to shoot at Kaos' current dilemma, Battlefield 3 Senior gameplay desinger Alan Kertz tweeted, "I don't expect KAOS studio to last... THQ was already talking up moving them away from New York."

Ouch.

The game's been very creative with its marketing approach, launching a roving Korean BBQ stall and launching a bunch of red balloons over the San Francisco Bay (which eventually failed because they all got swept to the waters, resulting in a rush of complaints from the Bay residents), but while numbers appear to be good, it takes more than that to say that customers are satisfied with what they got.

Homefront features American freedom fighters defending the country from an invasion by a unified Korea. Game's out now.
