I have managed to "fix" the issue (for now) after wiping the whole computer. I wish I could find the fix to help others in the future but sadly nothing would work.

Search is a lot faster now it seems!
I have verifyed game files and restarted steam and I'm getting just over 7k servers showing up relatively fast.

Another option is to educate people on how to direct connect but even that is having issues.

It seems like we're getting some more servers now (me at least). It takes a long time to get to around 700-800 and then it speeds up, I'm guessing that's when it stops loading the asian servers.

Also, we appreciate the update on the situation. Wishing the team the best of luck on getting things solved!
I believe you could merge my ticket into this one too since it relates to the same issues.

With 1.20 the launcher is even slower at searching for servers and the majority of what it finds are shady chinese ones.

I have been having the same issue since 1.19 patch. It is pretty random as of when it happens but there are times where I can be ingame for hours and the game would be fine and suddenly it crashes to a black screen. In order for me to close the game I need to use task manager and then I have a pop-up mentioning the init_dxgi error. Once this starts happening I can be ingame for a short amount of time and it will happen again. This issue prevents me from playing the game as it crashes very very often and I just die to AI everytime.

I know the devs have already been informed and they're already investigating the cause. Hopefully we'll have a hotfix tomorrow if not monday. We'll just have to ba patient for now.
The launcher did get worst with 1.19 and even worst now with 1.2.

I have seen this issue on many servers, including completely vanilla ones. It does not happen all the time but there is always people having those messages even tho the server is up and running with lots of players already on it. Usually verifying game files helps but sometimes it does and it ends up fixing itself after a while.

Awesome! Thank you for the good work!

Hello @Geez,
I have tried doing what you suggested and it did help me a lot. Game runs around 70-100fps at all times now. Thank you very much for the help!

Have you tried to verify your game data and clear the documents folder? (Make sure to have Steam cloud sync disabled). Does that make any difference?

I've been told that some people experience the opposite, the 1st 1.14 patch was running poorly and the second is smoother.
Those are my PC specs:
i5 7600k
16GB of ram
1050ti
Running on SSD

You can pin and unpin the nade all as you want if the lever is not release fuse wont start grenade wont explode, and if the fuse start there is no way to stop it.
For gameplay balance, in doorways tripwires are almost invisible (the wire is really thin) and the sticks can be easily hidden, way less visible than landmines, and they insta kill you with a cook nade, that is not good gameplay, the same reason landmines were changed, to a way better state now.
Boring is dying to a insta death almost invisible trap with no counterplay, and no decision input from the player, and most of the time the people that set the trap will have long gone like what happen with landmines before.
Having normal fuse time (4 s on russians and 5 s on americans) on nades its balanced for how easy is to make them and how easy it is to make people fall into them.
PS: I set up 5 tripwires total at different times with smokes and road flares on Prison Island in random buidings doorways , I camped prison for about 2 hours and 3 different players at different times triggered the tripwires because how you can make them so hard to spot
But that would just make it boring, landmines are visible enough such as bear traps but guess what? Players still step on them.
In the cases most have pointed out, a grenade should not be pinned back. Yet you can hold it in your hands for as long as you can, the issue is not cooking the grenades, it's just that the mechanics we have for throwing atm are slow. If they were gonna start the counter the moment you unpin it then you'd die every time you'd try to throw it.

Currently we do not see any issue with this. The damage is reduced since the arm was hit first.

Yes, it has only started happening since 1.13 has came to stable for me.

Hello, I have had the same issues on vanilla and modded servers.
Join a server, connect to it, about 30 seconds in I get the messages that my ping is getting higher and higher, goes up to 600-700 and then I get kicked.
If I log back in the same server again I will not have any issue anymore.

Glad I could help! Keep up the good work!

I have asked if people know something about it, if I get any answer I will post it here.
Thanks!

Hello, I have tried reproducing it on experimental and I have recorded multiple ways of cancelling the sound of unpinning/pinning a grenade.
Jun 24 2021
The issue happens on 1.12 and has happened on 1.11 as well. I have asked around if anyone has experienced on experimental yet. Will post here if anyone confirms it happening.
Jun 23 2021
Here is a clip from 1.12 where the sound seems to behave the same way. The shots are roughly 300m away and it sounds like 50m away.
Another video of it happening

The issue is a lot more common on servers where the player has higher ping. For me playing a US server makes it a lot more common due to higher ping than a EU server that has less ping.
Here is a video of how it looks in 1st person when the ADS bug happens.

While we do appreciate the feedback and information regarding to the issues on current experimental. Please file a ticket per each issue you come across. Posting them in the comment section not only makes the tracking of the issues much more complicated for us, there is also chance that your issue might get lost in the comment spam.Regards,

Also about Radios, a Radio right now weights 2kg, not sure if I am the only one thinking that it could be lowered to 1kg.

- At the moment it feels like everyone gets shot unconscious wakes up in 4-5 seconds, does not matter the calibre, shot by .308 or .357 or 7.62x39 they all take the same time until waking up.

Looking forward to the new updates! Hope everything works as planned! Thank you for your work!
