Dark and Darker

Dark and Darker

Anyone else randomly freeze?
As title says, only once a match, and not every match, I will freeze either in the lobby, mid-game, or during loading into the actual dungeon randomly for 10-20 seconds. Sometimes it's triggered by using voice, other times completely random. Game will always return, never a hard crash and never has happened twice a match, only once.

Before I freeze, it's always preceded by the audio cutting out, and 1-2 seconds later freezing.
Game runs fine, good frames and around 50% gpu usage and 70% cpu. Temps are fine. Only game that does this.

This issue has made playing the game very annoying as I am not only gambling on my skill and loot, but now the chance I might randomly freeze for 10 seconds during combat. Will probably make a detailed bug report to Ironmace.

Anyone else encountering this? None of my friends have this issue. Specs below.

No, only you

Just kidding, game servers are the cheapest possible and had not been working properly since day 1

Can't be a server issue as it happens only for me when playing with friends.

So pretty sure this has something to do with their anti-cheat as right after the game comes back after freezing I noticed my geforce instant replay gets turned off and it stops current recordings.

I’ve tried completely disabling any overlays and still freezing. Really at a loss and there’s no solution online. Sent a bug report when I made this thread and haven’t heard anything since.

Really want this fixed, I don’t want to do high-rollers or even bring loot in when I’m at risk of losing it all to mobs while I’m frozen.

It’s 100% a game issue and not a pc issue.

you're lucky, whenever i move i get back to where i was, and it would let me do only one action every time i enter a match.
for example: i would move forward and get back where i spawned every two seconds and when i jump once, i can never jump unless i quit and get back
