Can't Long Rest in Multiplayer - "Waiting for player to accept
Just bought this game at full price for my wife for Valentine's Day, and we finally had time to play it. We were really looking forward to spending some time together.

We go through a few things, get beat up pretty bad, and decide its time to long rest.

She initiates the long rest, I accept, and the game still tells us its "waiting for all players to accept" and just times out over and over.

To add insult to injury I just downloaded and installed a patch for this game that I think said it was around 17.3Gb, lol.

What the hell is this? Has anyone seen this recently? How do we fix it?

Never seen it but I've seen plenty of weird interface problems in multiplayer, have you tried saving and restarting the server?

we're gunna try this next, but I am just really shocked to see this core mechanic, that i've seen work in multiplayer, somehow still not working in multiplayer after at least 3 years of player feedback and development. I'd understand this a lot more if it were even something as acute as a class based ability that didn't quite work right in multiplayer...but long resting?

You just happened to be playing around a major patch. I recommend freezing your game version to ensure compatibility throughout your playthrough.

Oh have that returned, Earlyer we just left and re entered the camp on the rare occations the bug appeared.
If that wont work the player that not hosting could log out for a second, Not a great "fix" but it should work.

I dunno what freezing the game means but we just started a playthrough. Hadn't even gotten past the crash. If we lose this game, its not a huge deal. But if we somehow lose one halfway through act 1? (:

Edit: I just noticed the first guide literally says "freezing the game version" lol.
