Desync problem since last patch?

Postby MobiusBE » 06 Jun 2018, 12:11

Hey everyone

I've noticed that since the last balance patch (now a little while ago already), exponentially more games seem to have a 'Desync' problem. You know, I'm talking about the feared screen popping up that a desync has occurred. I don't have logs or anything at the moment, if you want I can post some later.

I've talked about this with some other players who were in the games and some responded that they noticed it as well.
In the past, a desync would be very rare (like maybe once every 50 games or so), but since the balance patch I've seen it in about 5/20 games that I played.

On a side note, I'm pretty sure the problem is not with me, as the desync screen always specified a problem between some other player and the game or something like that.

I just wanted to post this and see if more people seem to have noticed this?

Kind regards
Mobius

Hello MobiusBE,

Desyncs are almost in all cases wrong file versions on one of the players PC.
So, please check all files on all PC's and try the game without mods.

Without a game.log we can't suggest more.
(If you want to know who is desyncing we need at least 2 logs from different PC's)

I'd blame kiro's lobby, aka mod that alters the ingame lobby, it does it an a way of blocking updateing of one of the files. So surprise surprise after each patch we have sudden increase of desyncs.
