    first the game crashed mid match - most likely due to something with boon totems (survivors were healing and i assume they did so near a boon as shortly before the game crash - the boon activated (sound cue)).

    since then i am unable to load into any match as killer on steam.

    Literally impossible to play at all - amazing 'patch', such a qol improvement in my life now - no dbd to get angry at.

    Just booted the game again this morning and the infinite loading happened again twice.

    STEPS TO REPRODUCE

    Step 1 : Boot the game

    Step 2 : Play as Killer or Survivor in a public match.

    Step 3 : Wait to see if the game loads or hangs after Offerings screen.

    Step 4 : The game either begins or takes 5-10 minutes to resolve a DC issue / crash.

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

    Platform: PS4 Killer: Trickster.

    It seems to be happening as killer.

    Please fix this soon or extend the event. Killer is unplayable right now with this crash.

    Tried to play as a survivor group of four, so only matchmaking was with the killer and made it to two matches out of at least ten attempts. Eventually it just started looping. Until they fix this it's just waste of time to just wait to be able to wait again...

    I have the same issue on PS4, it happens around every second time I start a match. Both as survivor and killer.

    Yesterday it all worked fine


    Also, just now the game additionally also crashed after I had 10 minutes of loading screen.

    I have the same problem with infinite loading of matches. PC/Steam. Only as killer and it happens every game. I have had to reboot at least 10 times before i gave up.

    Still happening here for me as well. Just hopped on and first match it took around 10 minutes to boot out of the loading screen. Not wanting to get a penalty I waited the entire time. In the middle of waiting for another match as I type this that seems to be yet again suspiciously long waiting time, so I'm guessing I'll be sitting here for another 10 minutes.

    What are the chances that because of Haddonfield? Who has already gone there? I got into infinite load 3 times in a row by changing constantly killer. If you do not change it fundamentally, then the second time should be loaded

    20 minutes later...

    Put the trapper and Hadonfield - everything booted up normally

    Same on PS5, Survivor, 1 out of 5 games loading infinitive. Offerings are lost after forcefully restarting the game.

    I think it's the game still attempting to send you to a disabled map even though it's disabled. Just happened to me and when it got to the "player disconnected" screen it listed a map which is currently disabled. It takes people disconnecting to end the loading/cancel out the match.

    Xbox Game Pass / PC player experiencing the same issues here.

    I've played the newest Survivor, Fend & Yui and experienced it at least 3 times where after the offerings screen the loading screen seems to take an infinite amount of time to close. This happened to me solo & duo queuing with a friend who is also on game pass / pc platform.

    Can't be ALT + F4'd and it's a battle with task manager to get the end process function to follow through. Tried to find my windows logs for DBD but for can't seem to find any documentation of navigating to these log files.

    I had infinite loadings, I found a match without a mikaela, it loaded without problems, and after that all the games were loading perfectly. Try it maybe it will also help you.

    PS4 Player here: Its not only when i play as a killer that i get infinite loading screen, as a survivor too. At some point someone quits and i get errorcode 500, or after about 5 minutes i quit myself.

    I believe every time the game fails to load me into the match I get put onto one of those maps they have currently disabled. Im not sure if there is A coincidence, but I thought I would bring attention to it. I cannot queue at the moment unless I'm playing survivor and I bring A certain map offering. I would love to play this game again, please fix it relatively soon rather than later.

    I updated my game with the "fix".

    I am currently in an infinite loadscreen. The fix didn't work.

    PC, Steam. I'm a bit tired of losing pips because I have to quit the game during the load. It's been already five minutes I'm waiting.
