[GAME BUG] Long loadings

(Lumi) #1

Although many people might think it coincides with the last fine tuning update, already one day before I and others started getting triple time loadings while joining certain servers. One can hear the battle raging already and it just feels like a stuck in loading kind of situation. After that excruciating long loading, you get to join though. It happens only on certain servers, but seems to happen to everyone when it does.

My guess is it’s patch independent and server related. If I find out which servers they are I’ll be posting them here.

Also, there is an infinite loading bug with kick to main menu when you join at the exact same time as a friend on a server where there is only one spot left. One player gets to join while the other is loading for almost one minute without game sound though. Anyway, this one is pretty minor and I’ve experienced it only twice.

I have the same issue with the loading times when joining a running game. Didn’t have this problem before the patch.

It was good before for me as well, but I experienced it on one server already one day prior to the update.

I was just playing on an Aussie objective server and every game had long loadings for everyone. I have a decent computer so I was able to just get into the game before the start, but most of the players on the full server couldnt. In general, only 3 or 4 of us spawned on the first wave on a 16 player server. the rest were at least one full spawn wave behind.

This meant that if the attacking team rushed the first plant, they would only have to make 1 or 2 kills and then have an easy plant. Made for very lopsided games.

Can anyone let me know if these “long load times” are on Chapel? I seem to get infinity loading on a server with chapel and the match already being in progress (though i can hear the game in the background)

I think it’s map independent. I had it on both Trainyard and Underground. Try noting the server name and post it here.

(HonourBound) #7

Yeah, just had this problem on underground

Finally joined once the match ended… odd

Chiming in, I’ve had the same problem since the day (or day before) the last big patch came out. Definitely started before it rolled out client-side.

I used to be able to load in seconds. Now it takes a few seconds to hear everything going on in the background (people shooting, airstrikes, etc.), but it still says it’s loading for up to two more minutes.

First I thought I had it only on remote servers, but now I got it on EU too. It’s fricking irritating to hear a game for 30 seconds and then when you finally get in (after another wait for the deploy), it’s over.

Happens every time i join a new game, it use to be like 10-20 sec before now its like 3 min. I’ve noticed because of this, games are easily being snowballed.

Funny, before looking at this post I assumed it was because of my computer… But it isn’t nearly that bad of a computer to not run smoothly on lowest quality >:)
