Constant disconnects when loading zones
Daily reminder that GGG cares more about their SALES than their game or players by releasing supporter packs instead of responding to this thread.

I played today in the afternoon and I kept DC'ing. But when I played in the night (00:00 - 01:30 Amsterdam server) it never disconnected. I could switch zones as much as I could (I was mapping). I wonder what is causing this.

Guys this issue is basically related 100% to packet loss, i say that because i was having the same constant disconnection, but when i used a VPN service, the problem stopped completely which is weird, because i play all my online games without any problems whatsoever.
but today i tested my packet loss while playing dota 2, and found that sometimes (not constantly) i get 1% loss for about 1-3 sec, this amount of extremely low % packet loss is not groundbreaking and most likely wont effect you that much while playing other online games, but it seems that GGG servers are not optimized to handle this. Be a LEADER when you see a path others have missed,and Be a FOLLOWER when you are shrouded in the midst of uncertainty.

" I am using SoftEther VPN its an academic project from University of Tsukuba in japan, its a free open source program and its by far the best VPN i have ever used, main page https://www.softether.org/ and i recommend you to watch a tutorial video on how to install and use the program here https://youtu.be/TiTPDDPQgqg.

Installed the game again to have a look at new patch, but this time not on system (C:) SSD, but on hard drive (D:)
Playing for two hours on DX 11, did a lot of jumps between areas, not a single DC so far. Maybe the game doesn't like too much being on C: ? |

I am able to now play the game without any disconnects by doing the following
Using a VPN (pingzapper) + Switching to DX9 This even didn't use to work before, not sure if the latest hotfix had anything to do with this. I have been playing all day today without any disconnects, was able to finally do normal lab. |
