    I fixed that bug by setting my PS4 port to NAT1 in the Connection Settings. On the Net there are many tutorials about the correct procedure, which depends on the provider.

    Hmm. I have a wired connection. I still don't have NAT type 1.
    I use the LAN connection, my friend a wireless: both we have set NAT1 port.

    Go to Connection Settings of your PS4 and follow che custom procedure: choose wired o wireless, select PPPoE, insert the proper username and password (they depend on your provider), then set 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as primary and secondary DNS, then select "Manual" and digit 1500 (optic fiber) or 1492 (ADSL2+) in the MTU form and lastly set "No proxy": when you verify your connection, you'll see if NAT type has changed or not.

    @not_Queen I read (and used succesfully) this procedure in an Italian forum about PS4, but I hope it will fix the bug everywhere.
    Does this work for Wi-Fi?
    Changing my settings to NAT1 did NOT resolve the issue for me.

    Time: since 2.2.2 release date 24/7
    I can try to join the whole day as a survivor i get stuck in the loading screen after clicking "join lobby". The game tries to connect me with a lobby and during the loading screen the red laoding entity spikes appear and in the middle are the 3 loading points and then the game cant connect me and i get stuck in an infinite loading screen and have to close the game with the task manager.
    As a killer i can open a lobby but no one else can connect with me. Same with kyf and swf. I dont know the exact words but sometimes, for a very short moment, where the three loading points appear is writting something like "failed to join lobby"

    I would appreciate your efforts very much.

    I have a suggestion for some event rules you can add to the patch for the event lock out the mori and devour hope if you want to farm for vial's then instead of chasing and killing everyone just meet's up does a certain time on a flower each if they go over the killer can remove them and let them shake off at the end when the flowers are done the killer can get six hooks on event hooks if 5 flowers was used and everyone can then leave happy and with a safety pip if not then just have a good game and lastly can the bp bonus please stay for the event so survivors that have there viles can help others get theres

    It would be nice to jump right in match after you finish one on PS4 without restarting the damn app, testing internet conn then jumping back to game or wasting 1-3 minutes of our lives waiting to be able to que up again.. Especially while an event is going on that is only x amount of days and some people work 40+ hrs a week and over half the players are toxic lil twats. End rant

    Exact time the game client started to fail to join games : Unsure, noticed after the spirit update, not before.

    The exact times you tried to join a game again: This question is confusing. If you mean how many "times" have I tried to log in since the issue first occurred? To numerous to count.

    Or if you are referring to the "wait period" between leaving a match and being able to join another/do other things? That time is aprox: 1:30 mins - 3:30 mins

    Extra info:

    • I have no Auric cells, and have never bought any as of yet.

    • After extensively testing the "glitch", I have discovered if you manage to "finish" a match in less than 3 minutes....the glitch does not occur for me. (This is of course, never the norm for matches in general.)

    • Sometimes, the "Character information" tab is accessible while the glitch is still occurring, while other times...it is not.

    • I have bought the spirit with iridescent shards. But not Adam yet.

    I hope the information within will aid in solving this problem.

    This literally happens to me everyday after every match. Can never join a match right afterwards until a stupid circle disappears after 3mins. Been like this ever since ANOTHER patch.

    That's how it was but devs cant stop tinkering with the game. Whatever happened to the saying "if it's not broken dont fix it?"

    same problem happening to me since the shrine update on ps4. I can't rejoin immediately after I finished a game. It's really annoying to play like this...

    This problem has been persisting ever since the clown came out. I can't lie it's become a serious irritation. I know you're trying to work to deal with the problem so I'm going to just let you handle business and do what you do best

    -Within the last two weeks
    -Last night

    -My issue is a bit different than most others'. First I'm unable to use the SWF button, when I click, it will just spin and then stop..so I'm unable to invite anyone. Two, I can't join my friends' games for the most part. I'll accept the invite, it will take me to the loading screen and just stay there, causing me to have to restart. If I can get in a friends game, I'm immediately kicked out as soon as we find a match. I haven't tried KYF but I've tried solo and that's all I'm able to play. This is very frustrating and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I've tried to rebuild my database. Nothing works. And I haven't seen anyone else with this specific issue.

    Had the issue for a few weeks now (Survivor and Killer).

    *****However, I've now had several games which have lasted under 2 minutes and each time the bug isn't present.*****

    Thought this information could prove useful to the devs.

    Majority of the players have this issue on PS4. I think there's hardly anyone else other than you who have reported it for PC.
    As for the fix, the bug still existed as I was playing before 1:30 PM EST, but after that it suddenly stopped happening and I played like 8-9 games after that and the bug didn't occur again. My guess is that the devs fixed it.

    But don't worry, we will raise your issue with the devs again to solve it for you too.

    I need to know some things. 

    #1. Were you facing this issue on PS4 too? Did it get resolved?
    #2. If yes, kindly list your alphanumerical Player ID for both platforms, along with other asked information. If not, just list the details of your PC platform only along with other asked information.

    Are you sure your issue is similar to this, where in a white loading icon appears to mid-right part of the screen after every game, and if you try to join a game while it's on, it says, 'Failed To Join The Game'? Attaching a screenshot for reference.

    @Khalednazari and everyone, good afternoon.

    In my first comment, I said that I would take my PS4 to my brother's house to test his Internet, believe me ... It worked normally. So I told him to take his PS4 to my house and test ... It also did not work for him, that is, it's the Internet. I changed the modem and the problem disappeared. Thank you all for your attention and you can do the tests.

    See you later

    Comentário Original

    @Khalednazari e a todos, boa tarde.

    No meu primeiro comentário, falei que iria levar o meu PS4 na casa do meu irmão para testar a Internet dele, acreditem... Funcionou normal. Então falei pra ele levar o PS4 dele na minha casa e testar... Não deu certo pra ele tbm, ou seja, é a Internet. Troquei o modem e o problema sumiu. Agradeço a atenção de todos e se puderem façam os testes.

    Até mais galera

    exact time failed: 11:52AM UTC
    exact time try again: several times immediately thereafter

    I play on PC. This happens to me on killer about 2-3 times per day. I join a match, and within 30 seconds, I see 4 disconnected survivors and the post game tally begins. Upon leaving and trying to create a new lobby, I get failed to join game. I am unable to click back to go back to the main menu or switch to survivor mode or visit the store. I CAN bring up the settings page, but that's about it. The only way I've found to get out of this scenario is to end task.

    Edit: I tried to create a lobby again after posting this, and it worked WITHOUT using end task. Estimated time between failure and success was 2-3 minutes.

    Hello, i play on PC. I have the issue since i bought the game in december 22th.
