This is the exact issue I have been having since the LAST patch.
Black screen after squad screen and joining many many maps freezes on loading.
I have to constantly restart the game to get in.
When playing, no issues, It is only after match and pre match.
They always want to blame us but it was their update that broke it.
I have no overlays, all drivers are updated, game has been verified, reisntalled, no active firewalls, ports all forwarded, antivuris disabled, Win Defender disabled, etc.
I work in damn IT, It is not my computer.
It is your update.
What I DO notice is my disc read is really high before and after so what is the game trying to do between rounds?
