Issue Description:
My entire computer freezes randomly when playing, sometimes i can play for a few minutes and sometimes a few hours before freezing, when it freezes it can be anything between 1 minute and 10 minutes before unfreezing.
Sometimes its just "TIMEOUT" and other times it shows "FLOODING" as error message in the game.
I think its related to sudden big download by the game as i can see a spike in network usage when my computer unfreezes, i have used Glasswire to see that it is infact the game that downloads something, usually around 300-600MB.
It also maxes out CPU usage for a few seconds when it unfreezes.
Sometimes it even forces my internet to reconnect when it unfreezes.

Update, after hours of testing and plenty of not so child friendly words i have found that it was caused by multiple things and doing this seems to have fixed it:

1.Set my GPU to 90% powerlimit
2.Turned off hardware accel in discord
3.Turned off discord ingame
4.Changed from a WCS sever to a Raven server (no i have no idea why as they use pretty much the same mods)

2 and 3 was only needed when i was in a voice channel on discord.

I still have no idea what the massive downloads was about but as the time of writing this i have 15+h played without the slightest bit of freezing

Alright im back again, still having issues, took like a day or two then crashes returned..

Figured id add all my logs so you guys can take a look
