Same thing happening to me as well. I hate seeing that 20 second loading back to the menu.
Sometimes you can also enter the game, then when the intro to the level finishes, you would get stuck on the black screen loading and would stay there forever. Or you can see the glitched map or players just stuck in place no way to quit but Alt-F4
Playing with 3 of my friends is a hassle as well, sometimes 2 of us can connect and the other 2 can't enter. Sometimes 3 can enter and the one guy can't enter at all even with different invites from us.
The most annoying part is that when hosting a lobby, you could get disconnected if one of your friend joins in, even when you are playing in game.
Other bugs also include skills not showing up in your skill bar when entering the game while hosting.
You can also get disconnected at any time in game cause a random player joins in and crashes the session.
Constant rubber banding also happens when you get matched with a high pinged player. Movement is so janky.
Why not add lag compensation of some kind? is that to hard or expensive?
DId they even test this game before releasing it? I mean beta test it by giving some of their employees or beta testers in other countries and testing networking that way.
Cause I think they only tested this game in house or in the same region. Or release a multiplayer beta to get better input and polish it before release.
Instead we get to be the beta testers once again.
Hoepfully they would patch this up this friday, the multiplayer feels very low quality as of the moment and they plan on milking players that way.
They should first fix connection issues so that they can lure in more players in multiplayer to buy their micro transaction.
As of now, it's turn off, the game is addicting in multiplayer but players wont put up with connection issues, bugs/glitches and latency headaches.
Seems like you probably should have started a new thread with your issues. This post is about people not being able to connect to multiplayer at ALL.
@TheAnti-Liquid
I'm having the same issue as well, I am just more patient and just kept trying until I can finally connect.
I am just also stating some issues you would encounter once you are able to connect. Cause once you entered a game session, the lost connection to session won't end there. It can still happen even when you are halfway through the map.
