You can’t move around or use the mouse. You can only send messages in the chat.
if someone kill you, you are able to play around again
It seems that when there’s a queue for the server and you join it, your character freezes up as soon as you log in. You can’t do anything except press Enter and type in the chat; other than that, you can’t even press ESC or do anything else—you just have to wait to starve to death.
I just ran into this problem on 1990 server—I waited in a line of 19 people, and when I finally got in, the game froze. The only way out is to starve and die of thirst. Please look into this. If you want, I can send you some logs—just let me know where.
Just as an FYI - I thought this issue was fixed as later in the evening when I logged back in, I could move normally. However, yesterday morning I went to log in and the issue returned. My wife and I have had enough and just spun up our own dedicated server. The issue isn’t replicated on a dedicated server for what it’s worth. I was looking forward to playing on official, too.
Yes, the problem persists, but there is a WORKAROUND, which involves enabling the console so you can enter “SUICIDE.” However not everyone are able to work with console stuffs, the devs could take a little time to fix it—even on private servers, this happens when there’s a queue.
