Unable to ready up, and being booted from games by the game.
Posted: Wed 18 May, 2016 12:11 am
This bug has been Bugging me for a while now (see what i did there?)
basically, whenever i join a game 95% of the time i will be unable to ready up, and im some cases unable to choose my hero/race.
when the host goes to start the game the countdown gets stuck on 1 second then it cancels.
after several minutes of this happening and everyone in the lobby getting rather frustrated, i "leave" the game and i am left as the host of an empty lobby. i then can't rejoin their lobby for a little while, which i can only assume means that im "still in the lobby" even though im not, before the server finally realises im out and i can join, however most of the time it just ends up repeating over and over until finally it lets me ready up.
i have noticed also that if i manage to finally ready up, then i change race after that, it wont let me ready up again and the cycle continues.
also, im not sure if it is related but on one occasion i was half way through a game today and then suddenly EVERYONE other than myself dropped from the game, then my game "froze".
i have tried reinstalling the game and the mod, to no avail. i am still getting this bug.
is anyone else getting this or has it happened in the past? am i the only one?
Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered.
also, hi everyone! been a while since i've been on the forums, i even had trouble getting back in to my account but i finally managed it. sorry to lulgrim as i sent a support ticket to him mere minutes before i managed to get back into my account!
