Game freezes after new mid-season update (Lobby)

After the new mid-season update, the game freezes after 20 seconds in lobby. Can be in lobby, shop, anywhere in the game. It freezes without any possible interaction, no sound, no movement, nothing. If we quickly try to ready up, I don't get matched in ranked. Task manager does not say the app is not responding. I have GTX 1050TI and 16gb ram, only started after this last update. I've stumbled upon a possible solution - to quickly switch to fullscreen / borderless / windowed, nothing worked. Tried verifying game files, everything was verified okay. The problem is supposedly some new lobby "animation" that freezes the game.

  • Just dropping by to let y'all know that the team is investigating this. I will let you know if there are any updates or if more info is needed. 

    Thanks, everyone for reporting and for sticking with us. 🙏

  • Just dropping by, again, to say: wow! Still no fix, still no official communication about this issue. I get it, the battle pass fiasco was more important. In the latest dev/Respawn statement, they said the following, quoted directly from their statement:

    Moving forward, we recognize that we need to be more timely, transparent, and consistent in our  communications with you. Your priorities are our priorities: cheaters, game stability, and quality of life updates are top of mind. We need to get better and it's why we're acknowledging them here.

    So, lets see it, communicate with us, work on game stability and tell us about it. I'm looking forward to finally see that people actually work on fixing things.

    @f9g89e6df0n8oh really, didn't get the memo. Was it fixed through a patch or do you still refer to the shadow changes in the config (which made it better, but didn't fix the issue entirely for me) as a fix?

    @f9g89e6df0n8 consider yourself lucky. I just gave up a game with a friend after loosing a fight with my fps around 15-20.
    Just unplayable.
    And... it never happened before quads update... of course.

    Nothing has been fixed. This is still an on going problem, been nearly a month now. Complete joke. 

  • This still issue is still occurring, and has gotten worse since the last update. Are you ever going to do your job and communicate it to the dev team, so they can fix it? Just wondering... 

  • any update on the fix? my game has been freezing while playing the LTMs and ranked gotten a few abandoned penalties for it as well.
