Server Disconnect Optimization Patch

June 10, 2018

I dont know what it is about this new update, but ever since the most recent one hit, my servers are disconnecting at twice the rate as usual.

i gotta tell you, its a real goddamn shame when im boolin around Factory at night in my Sunday best , turn a corner, and my game disconnects right as I look a Scav dead in the eyes. Now Mr Русский Гай over theres is blasting my ass while I spend the longest 10 seconds of my life transitioning between menus till I can slap the reconnect button and find out from the doctor that I am confirmed dead.

almost every other game I would have a server disconnect now since this update landed, to the point where i'm losing Insurance returns from when I died from a disconnect, in another disconnected server.

day 3: disconnected from Woods 5 minutes into my first game for the day, and reconnected right in time to find myself half dead to a Scav who made me full dead 4 seconds later.

its like im playing as a PMC who suffers from Epilepsy

day 5: disconnected as soon as I entered a single game of Factory at night. I went in with only a P226 to test the waters, and I still found myself disappointed.

Scav games are the only ones that dont immediately disconnect for me.

Ever since I made these posts, I haven't gone a single match without a really bad disconnection.
Immediately after my very first post, i wasnt able to connect to a single match at all. It would crash every time i got to the "Awaiting Server" part of the loading screen. It was pretty late into the night making me thing there was unmentioned server maintenence or changes being made during this time, but who know.

The point is that its so bad right now that it feels almost like it's targeted. what the actual duck is going on?

day 6: the launcher updated so I thought i wouldnt run into any issues.
went into a couple servers naked to once again test the waters and the game ran fine.

brought an SKS into a woods raid and did well and extracted. after that round I decided to bring in a Liiiiiiittle bit more stuff.

game disconnected as soon as it loaded in and i backed out because i didnt want to bother with reconnecting 6 times to a server.
i backed out fine and had my stuff from what it looked like, so i immediately went back into another woods raid.

reconnected with none of my stuff. AND THEN i disconnected again.

Gotta say, the solid 25 minutes where i actually got to play the game were fun
