ERROR CLIENT TIMEOUT (Disconnected)

[LordCris]

The game kicks me out of the game in the middle of the game, or as soon as we start the game, or when we already know the ghost. and it says,
"ERROR Client TimeOut." How the ♥♥♥♥ do I fix this problem? I'm sick of !!!!!!

I just get kicked out of the game when in multiplayer, this behaviour seems random. Can you implement something like recconnect to games? It feels so overwelming when you almost got the ghost, get kicked and wasted half an hour of life.
Thx
love the game

We had someone kicked out recently - a 'reconnect' or a 'keep trying' retry/abort kind of screen would be really useful.

I guess one thing with this is how it works in-game. The character would be still in the game and motionless while the connection couldn't be established (and so could get hunted). Also, care would need to be taken so that a "hung" connection wouldn't stop the other players from leaving in the van (so the van can leave if all alive players are in the van except for those "disonnected" ones who would get kicked out immediately when the van leaves).

Need help, I have updated everything but game keeps crashing when joining lobby regardless of public or private match. anybody got tips?

This is pretty common when you get a lost package on your connection, the game net-code is very delicate with unstable connections, I had to use my mobile data plan to play.

But yes, the game should have a "reconnecting" screen or more robust or forgiving net-code

Mmm.... That never happened to me. He just kicks me out or kicks me out friends and we disappear. as if they'd left the game.

Crashing or disconnecting? What is happening when the problem occurs?
