    Exact Time: every time after several matches per day but happens really a lot

    The exact times: After games, after starting the game, after joining a lobby but most the time when I start the game it shows the red and white symbols so that means the game gonna crash on me

    Today, something different happened. Right after the match started, the killer disconnected and when I got back to the main screen, I could join a lobby immediately.

    Hello good morning, I have had this problem reported since the Sanctuary. I came to play normal before buying the package from shattered BLOODLINE CHAPTER. When I bought this package I had this loading problem after Departure. I just came to comment on this and I hope you will arrange this because I have already lost the desire to play because of this problem. For more information here my ID: 9e358706-1868-4d4f-bc84-8c22e9ee5a90

    @not_Queen I am sure the team must be trying their best, but it would be great if this gets resolved before the Hallowed Blight event. No pressure though :)

    I found a way to fix this, just restart your console and it will work again

    Thank you Queen. Hopefully this issue can be resolved. This annoying circle thingy needs to go away. It's becoming quite frustrating waiting to join another game and trying to play with your friends. And I'm pretty sure everyone in this form can agree with me.

    While I'm sure the devs are working on this as a priority, in the meantime there's a workaround that has already been mentioned, I don't remember in which thread.

    Start the "Test Internet Connection" and cancel it after the first couple of steps without quitting the game. Go back to DBD and connect to the servers again. It's way faster than restarting the console or waiting the full 3 minutes out.

    Edit: grammar

    I think that the fix at the new PTB patch so can you tell them if they can check their because I didn't face any problem in the PTB

    I'm pretty sure it's has to be when the patch happened. But I'm just surprised not everyone is having this issue just some people. Which doesn't make any logical sense.

    As you already know, perhaps I find out the cause of this bug.
    When I played DBD in my friend's house (with my PS4),this bug didn't occur.
    I think that this bug is caused by NAT type.
    NAT type of my house internet is 3. That of my friend's house is 2.
    I played DBD with Tethering(NAT type is 1),this bug didn't occur.

    I am sorry for not being able to explain well because English is not my first language.
    I would be glad if this bug is fixed.

    @syagexexexexe

    I have two different connections in my house, both are different ISPs and have NAT type 2 when I connect. I'm having this issue on my connection that is wired, but if I switch to my other connection via wifi, the bug goes away.

    This has been happening the last 3-4 weeks. After every game, survivor or killer, I am unable to join a new lobby for between 1-3 minutes. The error message says failed to join game.

    Not exactly certain when it started happening but I can give a rough estimate of about the last week of September
    That loading icon remains for about 2 minutes and happens after both survivor and killer games. I can't join lobbies or go back to the home screen during this time. Wud be really grateful if this was resolved at the earliest.

    Hello Dead by Daylight Team I have the above mentioned mistake I think because the Agressive Driving Outfit came out the first time I got all the DLCs in the PSN store the time I measured when spinning the circle was 1.55 minute player ID Screenshot

    Date it started happening: The exact same date the patch 2.2.0 came out.
    When does it happen: Every single time I finish a match, it doesn’t matter the match result or if I’m playing as killer or survivor. It happens every time
  • Member Posts: 63

    Yep. PS4 here. Download copy. After every match unless killer DC's then its 50/50 if it happens. Been going on since i created the thread " Failed to join game" before this 1 was made

    In game ID: 070acf7b-14a4-4f34-a4d0-115b6134c2ce (PSN is CampoCrush) 

    Exact time it started: I didn’t take down the exact time, but it started shortly after the update when the Shattered Bloodline was released. 

    Exact times it occurs: Every time I leave a match. If the host quits early on, it won’t occur but I must restart my application after every finished match. I also tried uninstalling and redownloading but it did not help.

    Happened right after the spirit update it happens after literally every single game its very tedious trying play with my friend or even solo queing over and over having to restart my app every game or wait upwards from 4 to 10 mintues. Hope its a fix soon consistent issue deleting and redownloading didnt help,turning ps4 doesn't help,closing app definitely doesn't help i don't know what else to do.

    I am almost 100% certain that this is an issue with the ingame store. More specifically the Auric cells. It could be the game attempting to fetch data but it taking a while to do so.

    I made this conclusion because it started happening to people starting the day the Trapper's new cosmetics were introduced into the store. Additionally, attempting to open the ingame store, at least on PS4, the same white circle will appear, and it takes a while for the "Auric Cell Packs" to properly load and be accessible.

    We still don't have an internal repro of this issue. Our team is still trying to isolate what causes the problem for PS4 users. We know this isn't a fix but some users reported that if you are restarting the APP, it helps. They also reported that it was happening more often if your console was in sleep mode for a long time.

    Just curious, when you say that the team has extracted profiles of some affected players, does it contain the data log of that issue wherein players are not able to join the match? Or do you guys don't see that problem at all in our profiles? 
    Also, do you have any kind of statistics that as of now, how many players have been affected with this issue?
    Secondly, I have to add that, the problem only persists only on one of my ISPs, when I switch to a different ISP, there's no more loading circle. Switching back to the former network again doesn't fix it either.

    Time: 3:30pm mountain time
    Time I retried: I couldn’t even load past the title screen. I’m not having the same exact thing displayed here, but I’m locked at the main title screen and I’m having the “Intialization error”. This happened right after I updated to 2.3.0.

    I think the issue may be tied to the end match screen. I played ten matches this afternoon and in seven of them I hit the triangle button as soon as the match ended without waiting for the emblems, points, etc to load in. In each of these instances I did not get the spinning circle thing and was able to go right into another match. On the other three matches I waited on everything to load in on the end match screen and then hit the triangle button. In each of these instances I got the spinning circle thing and had to wait two to three minutes before I could start another match. If it is tied to the end match screen that may explain why some are getting it others aren’t depending on how long they sit on the end match screen. I will be doing some more testing tomorrow.

    Hello Developers! I’ve been experiencing this issue for a couple of weeks now on PS4. It seems to happen every time a game session has come to an end. It normally takes as long as five minutes to finally join a lobby. Thanks for the help!

    Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be the case for me. Even when I exit the end match screen as quickly as possible, I still get the white circle and have to wait 2 minutes to play another match.

    From around October 2 to the present Japan time

    I do not record the specific date and time, but it surely occurs after the match ends
