The developers last game had an all time peak of 7,000 users. They planned worst case scenario of 250,000 users for the sequel expecting more realistically 50,000 users.
They're currently at 394,686 players on steam alone - not including Playstation players. The servers are doing their best right now.
Sorry, I don't quite understand this in the context of "friend code" vs "matchmaking". Are you saying that friend codes bypass their servers, allowing peer-to-peer play even when the servers are overloaded (the way direct IP addresses used to do in old PC games)?
I apologize for not asking a clearer question. I was actually just interested in buying the game, but only if it has public matchmaking built-in for finding anonymous pick-up groups, instead of needing an external Discord server to swap friend codes on.

Friendcode is basically a token: lets have a game - call me on this burner number. we have game.
