Multiplayer out of sync?

[Moonshaft]

I've been having this problem lately with multiplayer and I'm wondering if anyone else has been having this issue as well. Whenever a friend joins my game everything is fine at first, but then after anywhere between 5-15 minutes later we fall out of sync. Their character is stuck staring at some random wall and never moves. They're following me around and killing things (I can hear it on their end) but according to me they're stationary. I'm also unable to start any missions or cutscenes as I'll infinitely be "waiting for other players". The only solution is for them to leave, come back, rinse and repeat.
Anyone else have this problem, and if so, any solution?

I might of just had a desync issue in pvp. I was dominating a match as the zombie 1v1, had plenty of kills while he'd hardly touched my nests. Then suddenly early time I'd pounce him the animation would freeze and he'd teleport a block ahead after a few seconds, alive with no damage. This occurred over and over. Then I noticed I was unable to damage him, but regular zombies could. He also didn't seem to be aware of me and his weapon did no damage to me as I stood directly in front of him to test. After a few minutes of this my FPS dropped to sub-15 and I could only move at a choppy snails pace, unable to catch him. Wasn't playable past that point. :(

Bump for other people who are having this issue as well. Any possible solution other than something maybe a incoming patch will fix?

I'm also having the sync problem.
Everytime I'm playing multiplayer with my friends, I can play for 10-15minutes w/o problems, sometimes I get a short FPS drop before they desync and start to stand around while on their side they still follow me.

What I tried so far:
- Updating my Graphic Drivers
- Using CPU-Control to let the game use 4 instead of 1 core
- setting all ingame settings to low/best performance
- deactivating my second monitor (i do get the "engine_x64_rwdi.dll" error if it crashes afterwards and someone mentioned in the Dead Island Forum that deactivating secondary monitors could help - it didn't)
- validating files @ steam
- turning off my firewall/avast
- reinstalled the game

so far nothing helped, hope they fix it soon.
sucks to see my friends having the game almost done and me stuck @ 10% story

Bump for crashes. I'm now at the point where instead of being out of sync the game just outright crashes. If it's full screen I get a full lock up and I have to do a system reboot. If it's in windowed mode then the game just stops responding and closes out. So it's gone from tolerable but annoying to just very, very annoying. I can see that they're working on a patch right now so hopefully it solves the problem...

Did the patch fix anything for you guys? I'm still crashing a lot when I try and play co-op...
