"Lost Connection To Host" Every. Single. Heist.

[depression♡]

I lose connection to host every single heist i play. Even ones i ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ host!. People get disconnected. I've had this game since it came out. I've 100% never had a problem & now all the sudden i do. I cant play with friends, i cant play online, i cant host my own ♥♥♥♥, NOTHING. I've even googled fixes.

I Flushed my DNS
I Ran PD2 as administrator
Ive Taken out all my mods
I've Restarted the game
I've Changed my fire wall ports
I've Checked my internet connection (127.4Mbps Down 10.7Mbps Up)
I've Closed other applications
I've Repaired DirectX
I've Restarted my router & my PC
i've Repaired Microsoft whatever the ♥♥♥♥ 2008
I've Made sure steam wasn't downloading
I've Checked the integrity of PD2's files
I've Unchecked test Steam Beta
EVERYTHING

And literally some hacker told me to close PD2 with the task manager instead of normally & that allows me to play ONE heist before i gotta do it again, and again, and again. & even then my game crashes half the time when i place deployable or throw grenades

I've play with people across the world & been completely fine until now. & when it does work the Desynch is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awful. Which has NEVER been a problem before.

I haven't had a problem in the 4+ years i've had this game & i have no idea how to fix this. Does anyone know? Because the game is absolutely unplayable till i ca fix it.

Unfortunately, no. It's really weird, though. If I don't disconnect, I crash randomly.

They introduced the desync "fix" after testing the beta, if I remember correctly. Of course, it wasn't as much of a fix as people were hoping. But hey, good intentions are always good.

Have you thought about the possibility that the host's connection is bad/doesn't synergize well with yours? Also AFAIK if you get kicked by certain mods you can get this message instead of being told that you have been kicked.

But in the middle of the heist? I thought NGTBO and its cousins kicked instantly when the player joined the lobby.

NGBTO does have manual kicking, doesn't it?

"You have been kicked by ngbto for having 7 aid kits instead of 7.0025 aid kits, but let's just say that you lost connection"

I'm not sure. I don't use it. I'd rather do my thang manually and let people know they're dips before I kick them.

NGBTO kicks people under hosts said requirements in game since it has happened a couple times for me but it just takes a rather somewhat long time to process.

true connection losses are when in the middle of the game everything around you freezes like you in matrix or some ♥♥♥♥, if you lose connection right when joining, then you got kicked son
