1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.

2. Locate the following registry key.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet001\Services\DHCP

3. In the right pane, double click DependOnService, and then make sure that the Data Value value is

Tcpip
Afd
NetBT

and adding "--gc 2" to the end of the shortcut path seems to have completely gotten rid of the issue for me.

What does --gc 2 do? And do you mean it fixes the stuck in loading screen?

This piece of shit game has had severe connection issues since launch, and the only thing people without problems can say about it is "works on my machine it must be your isp/DX version/computer/internet connection"

I'm done trying to make it work, it's not worth it.
There are other games I can play.

"--gc 2" increases the number of generations that PoE stores data before dumping it, meaning it will keep some data longer and decrease load times. I noticed that the longer the load screen the more chance that you had to DC.

This solves the problem some people are having where they sometimes DC during load screens while running PoE in Dx11.

Game is unplayable for me since yesterday because of this, it really puts me on tilt every time I try to play. No matter the gateway, no matter the network adapter, no matter the directx version it keeps happening. A statement acknowledging this problem and confirmation that somebody is working on it would be appreciated....

Does not work for the load screen bug where it does not continue :(

recently tried to play dx11
cuz dx9 seem to lag quite bit for me for whatever reason

and it feels quite better

if it wherent for the constant dcs . . . . .
its either play dx11 with constant dcs, or play dx9 with huge fps drops

This is becoming really annoying. Game becomes unplayable. Its weird though. Sometimes i can play for an hour and them im fucked again. Any response from GGG yet?

It really is my hideout wich is lagging. Going from my hideout to a map or going back to my hideout

I don't get many disconnects it just freezes every other zone change on loading screen, checking the log file it connects fine to the new zone..

I have the same issue. No disconnect at all. The game doesn't seem to crash but it looks like it goes in a sort of sleep mode.

It did start at first to happen on the 2nd day of this league. The game was not responding almost every time after loading a new map, taking portal, using a waypoint.

I verified the integrity of the game files, uninstall/reinstall, changed different graphic settings until I found out that there was an old game execution settings -preload present on my game settings. I removed it and then things got better.

Then unfortunately since this week, same symptoms but the status of the game on the task manager is not in "Not responding", the game doesn't disconnect me either, but we can see the loading icons when going to another map,location and then they disappear, we can keep hear the game sounds but it's like the game is out. I go the task manager the game process is in "Running" status. I have no other choice than killing the game process and run back the game again.

The problem is that it can happen several times in a row like it can happen sporadically but since this week it did happen already over 50 times in not even 8 hours play. That is extremely frustrating.

I love this game, I love what GGG is doing but it seems there have been some code missing or something tha has been changed causing a big QoL issue. I'm playing on a laptop with Desktop high end graphic, top of the top SSD, top of the top CPU and my internet connection is absolutely stable. As stated previously, the game seems to run but then I can hear my laptop calming down like the game was in idle or it's like the loading process when going to a new location such as map, taking portal or waypoint or any other way that leads to load a new map/location seems to time out and then the game remains like that on this loading screen and you can wait forever nothing happens.

If that can help.

CPU: i7-6700K 4.00Ghz
Installed RAM: 32GB DDR4
Operating system: Windows 10 x64
Graphic card: Gforxe GTX 980 (Desktop version)
All drivers up-to-date.
OS up-to date as well.

If you need that I create a dump of the game process when it happens, let me know.

Cheers.
