Playing on xbox official server 1614.
Last night my game kept freezing/hanging for a few seconds during battles. It would pop back and I’d usually be dead. I was playing with two of my clan mates and neither of them were experiencing this issue. It happened about 5 times before finally the game crashed and I was thrown to the Xbox dashboard. I tried restarting the game multiple times, while my friends continued to play, and each time I got logged in my game would crash after about 10 - 20 seconds.
I’m hardwired to the internet with 110Mb down and 12Mb up. Open NAT. 0 packet loss.
My game was stored on an external HDD. I moved it to the internal storage and had the same exact issue.
I then uninstalled the game completely and reinstalled. This time the issue was similar but no crash. Once I got logged in I was kicked within 20 seconds with a message displayed saying “host has closed connection”.
This is where I’m currently at.
======UPDATE 1=====
Still crashing, but only on sever PvP 1614.
Created a new character on a new server and could play like normal.
When I returned to the server list to find 1614 it never showed up. I’m assuming server issues. Will test more tonight.
=====UPDATE 2=====
Doing some more testing tonight.
My clan mate was able to sign on and watch what was happening at our base while I was trying to login. It seems like I exist in two places at once because my spawn place was the desert and he was seeing me pop up inside our house.
I thought I had it fixed though. I decided to destroy my character and create a new one (it’s going to get wiped in a few weeks anyway right?). I was able to get through the entire character creation process taking time adjusting all my features without crashing. The minute I was in the game and making my way through the beginning it crashed within 10 seconds of actual gameplay.
NEW ISSUE
A new issue arose tonight though, might be related to the crashing, but deals with joining friends on Xbox. I join via the friends list cuz it’s easier than doing a server search every time. The game crashed and when I loaded it back up, without even accepting an invite or seeking out my friends, the game immediately displayed “attempting to join session”. I got in and then it crashed like usual.
=====UPDATE 3=====
I was able to play this morning without any crashes. I got my character all the way to level 15 so then signed off. Just jumped back on, it’s mid-day here (CST) and now the crashing issue is back.
In additon, I was streaming my Xbox (wired) to my PC (wireless) while playing when this occurred. I noticed that the first time I got kicked a message popped up on the streaming app saying “network isssues”. I feel like this might be a local network thing, but because I’m not monitoring network traffic during box play I’m wondering if it’s somehow related.
