SWITCH - Game disconnecting from server when idling in survivor menu for more than a few minutes.

When idling in the survivor lobby for more than a few minutes, the game will boot me to the title screen and show a network error. I’ve tested my connection each time and nothing is unusual, and I don’t have this issue with other online games on the switch (the switch is also not in sleep mode when this happens). This is only an issue for the survivor lobby as well.

    UPDATE since the Lara Croft chapter: now when this happens, trying to log back into the game will show a save game error and force you to quit & restart entirely. pls i just want to play without having to be glued to my screen the entire time. this makes playing with friends extra tedious as well. 😭

    UPDATE since patch 8.2.2: this is still happening, and has recently become more frequent. unless i am actively queueing up or i’m already in a match the game will boot me to the title screen with the same “no network connection” error within 30 seconds of idling in menus. trying to change anything in menus is a chore now as i feel like i’m on a timer and the switch isn’t exactly fast with selecting different perks/items.

    New error when trying to load back into the game, requiring a full restart: Session Expired. It says my account is in use on another device when it isn’t. Maybe this is a cross progression glitch?
