Problem loading into game

[xItsATrapx]

In short, the game sometimes does not load and gets stuck either at "Awaiting session start" or at the "Deploying" timer at 0 seconds.

The complex part is that I'm sure that there aren't any connection issues since I've tried on different servers, maps and real-life times and the result is the same:

Scav runs load normally and smoothly, however trying to load as PMC has this funny thing where if I enter without any equipment at all or just a backpack and
a single gun it loads ok, but if I go any more equipped than that it simply never loads into the raid and any action I take results in my character being KIA.

This problem started a week ago, I don't think it is part of a major or minor update causing this for me and I've already checked integrity of game files and cleared game cache too.

if you bring dogtag case in your secure container into raid, just don't. it seems the dogtag case makes some sort of bugs.

You see, there's also a problem when I try to report this as a bug... so...

That works for my friend.

 

My friend got the same issue.

Running with light gear (Riffle and headset only, or pistol + headset + rig + helmet) does not run into the issue.

When he carried any kind of primary weapon with armor and helmet, he got stuck at "waiting for game to start" or the countdown shows 00:00:00 but he never joined the game successfully.

He has a dogtag case in his safe container (with 91 dogtags in it), after moving the dogtag case from the safe container, the issue resolved.

Thanks a lot for the workaround @behi09ma.

 

Best regards,

Yes, removing the dogtag case from the safe container worked, I also tried later with an empty dogtag case, it works too.

Seems like i started having this issue at around 82ish dogtags in the case.

Thanks for the solution
