First of all, I've had BRINK (retail copy) since the day it was released in UK and since that day have not been able to connect to any game that any of my steam friends are in or hosting. Is this issue avoidable and if so, how?!

Second of all, how soon is soon for the PC Multiplayer Stats feature. The game has been out for months and both Xbox360 and PS3 seem to have priory support for most features - what going on?
