Disconnects are atrocious

[Lord Commander Dante]

Am i the only who's experiencing horrific disconnects? I can go by an entire day with a perfect connection and then, like today, i get dc three times in a row on safijiva. Wtf.
Doesnt happen in any other online game that i play at the moment..
There suppose to be a system in place which allows you to get back to the group you've been just disconnected from. This is such a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to lose your 20-40m progress on Safi due to unexpected dc.

I don't know man, the server is unstable since corona breakout. I think the server maintenance guy get to stay at home considering their health and safety.

a lot of people are conected at once, so a lot of disconnects happen.

It seems it may the case. A lot of people at home plus a new siege. In fact, considering it I did not find so many disconnection issues...

I've experienced this as well, but it might be attributed to the high traffic on the Steam servers these last couple of days.
This issue started after the latest patch which added Safi and Stygian Zinogre, but whether the patch itself caused it or the high server traffic is hard to say.

I've had days were I had 0 disconnects while on other occasions I disconnected 3 times in a row.
I did notice that I remained connected to Steam during the disconnects, though this doesn't rule out the high traffic as the cause.

You can report it to Capcom by using the official support channels, which would allow them to determine whether the game itself is the issue.
The game had a similar issue at launch so this issue might have resurfaced after the latest patch.
Make sure that youre playing on a wired connection and that your internet connection is stable and working correctly, before reporting it to Capcom as this will speed up the process.

Yep, three times already, people starts running in the same place, and boom. Everyone is down.

Even here we get Disconnect virus :(

[Kyathab]

I'm also getting this constantly recently. Annoying as hell. I was getting it alot back when i just bough Iceborn for PC, then it got better. But now it's horrible again. Can barely play 20 minutes without a random disconnect.

Sucks......

The games network architecture and session handling is what is causing the issue. How they communicate between each other seems to frequently lose the data and this is causing the by hour disconnects on PC. I do admit that it is such a shame, as it is making the Safi'Jiva siege hunt a painful experience and nigh unplayable from time to time. For an event that has a limited timer already, that causes a whole lot of issues to the player experience. The development team should handle this as soon as possible, this is not a good look for the game.

Just today I got 3 consecutive disconnects from Safi'Jiva siege. Out of 1 hour of configuration and trying to play the game I got 10 minutes from it. After the 3rd time in a row being disconnected, I gave up and went to play stable games instead.

You might be wondering if the problem is on my end. No, I can assure you it is not. This is an exclusive problem of Monster Hunter World, I have a 100 Mb stable cable internet connection and I study ICT-Engineering so I know where the problem would show up if it were on my end and had resolved it.

[Killibob]

I cant even join any online sessions at all. And then i open one it gets closed a few minutes later.

CAPCOM already sold more than 15M copies of this game, they don't care about fixing the network issues.

[Tanish]

Same here, my friend and I are disconnecting from the Online Session constantly. This issue has never happened before, hopefully they can fix it whilst we still have Safi available.

I don't think that it is a CAPCOM's problem and more of a Steam problem. After the patch I have been able to play with no disconnections except for three occasions so far. So, I would bet that Steam MHW servers are handling a lot of traffic since there is a lot of people quarentined at home that coincided with an important siege.

[LiMiT™]

It's Steam, not MHW. Steam's having connection issues.

[ZenithM]

Insane disconnects at the moment, every Safi run I'm in, people are dropping one by one almost as soon as the quest starts.
