I take it there are no mods on this game since it would be nice if someone would post something on all these damn disconnections.
I can not play the game for more than 30 minutes without a DC which is not so bad while delving(since I am fed up with losing the map portals) but it would be nice for a mod to find out wtf is going on with the game since I know other people are having the same issue.

30 minutes to download 45MB then constant DC nice cant wait for 3.8.0 maybe they will have a stable server.

It's probably on your side, no one as reported on constent crash lately.
What does mods can tell to you exactly? They don't

The devs do post somewhat frequently, see e.g. https://gggtracker.com/ although hardly ever on the steam community hub.

If all portals are closed, that indicates either an instance crash of that instance and/or that you're somehow in a new hideout instance (which probably means that the hideout instance crashed).

If it's only the map instance that crashed, it might be some bad combination in your build triggering that. If the hideout crashed as well, it might be something else causing it (dunno if the hideout crash that can happen when you delve and port back to your hideout and then go mapping got fixed for example).

That is of course assuming it's a somewhat typical disconnect and not one with the "game server lost connection to the realm" message, which would be self-explaining but somewhat localized to you and possibly a couple hundred/thousand other players. In that case you'd try out another gateway for the day or so to avoid the connection of the instance back to the backend dropping out again for possibly the same reason it dropped the first time.

How can it be "my side" when there were people in global chat also having the exact same problem?
Small update then people reporting that when they enter a map it will DC them and close all portals and you think the problem is mine?

If I got nobody on global chat to say they also were having this problem then YES I would assume its something on my side but when several people all say it just happened to them you can assume that its got nothing to do with me and everything to do with the server.

Like I said I honestly do not mind if I get disconnected while doing nothing or if I was still doing the Acts but when you finally get a map you need and quality it up etc and then you get booted its not right.....I do not "rush" maps like you see people on YouTube so getting a map that I need takes time or currency to buy it so I do not like the lose of time it took to get the map for no fault of my own.

Do a tracert to the servers, to see if you are dropping packets.

How can it be on your side if others report it? Simple. Depending on how you hop to the server, you might go through a backbone that is having issues, and so might all those other people.
