Disconnect Possible Solution

Good afternoon,

Tl;dr - release patch that changes the Easy-Anti-Cheat timeout on clients to 5-6 seconds to solve random disconnect issues.

The disconnect issues started after Wednesdays patch, I believe the EAC client side was modified to increase the timeout sensitivity. At the slightest hiccup, it disconnects the client back to server select. Different people are having more issues than others, indicating their network, or the backbone ISP route the data takes, is having ping/packet issues.

Please release and emergency hotfix for the client side to change the EAC timeout from whatever low rate it is to something larger like 5-6 seconds (or more) to allow network congestion to solve itself and not disconnect people at the slightest breeze in the wind.

Rox, please read :slight_smile:

idk i pinged the server had 36 ms 0 loss and i legit got eac off in the middle of it
xD unless u talk about something else

Your ping could be normal at any given point, but sometimes, there could be a packet issue, or your ping spikes to 500ms for 1 second and it may be enough on EAC client side to determine your connection was lost and kick you to server select screen.

This is just my working guess as to why we are having issues since Wednesdays patch and what may have changed to cause it.

from my pov it seems kinda random, i had spikes sometimes from 200 to 500 and nothing happened, i even had a week where my cable signal was weakened and i had to play with 800ms constant till the provider came and fixed it, didnt have any dc then just like 1 sec delay, i ran the ping test multiple times there was 1 time where i had 1 single loss out of 100 and nothing happened
but when i had none i got eac off
so idk, just remove eac honestly, its worthless, dead by daylight is using eac too and its infested with cheaters and the devs are just now making their own anti cheat systems

i had after patch day 41k ms haha, but after i stopped plan on patch day, the other days sometimes 100-700 ms but i got only disconnected if i had none ms problems, mostly mid-raid whats really fun especially at clown p3 bingo… we had 3 people dc at bingo that really is alot frustration. sadly i dont know any solution because im not into that, but i really would love if they fix it before next patch… i even got cursed 30 min ago in argos because of a dc. so i could’nt run another dungeon for some time…

@Roxx bump, hope this viewpoint on the solution helps lead to a resolution for all those with DC issues.

I know every time EAC disconnects me I see for a brief second a spike in ping into the 300-400 range, normally, at any given time, the ping is only 20-30.

happening again just now, Galatur, 5:13 Am EST on Nov 13th, screenshot attached.

had no dc today so far but my ping spiked to 250 a few times
i d be happy if it stayed this way ngl xd

@Roxx please read, and pass this along, this is the solution to all your disconnecting player issues.

Don’t bother. they got 6 hours today and still it’s not fix. I even have more dc then usual today. 4dc within 2hour and one of them during chaos gate.

Same I’m done playing this game until they fix it.

eh

I mean you don’t really have a choice :joy:
