[CRASH] D/C From Loading Screen

DarkSailent·11/6/2014, 8:39:38 AM·6 votes·1,664 views

So basically every time the game launches to the loading screen, I will get "d/c" from the game and have to alt+f4 till everyone has entered the game, leaving me and the others with the same issue behind 10-50 seconds of game play. Very frustrating when it comes to ranked and need to be in the jungle by a certain time.

  1. Look for game
  2. Champ select
  3. Launch to loading Screen
  4. D/C's from Loading screen and alt + f4 3-10 times depending on loading speeds of other players.

I run virtual full screen - said that alt tabbing does this - black screen - but that's not the exact case here.

This has happened ever since the patch.

Hope to see a hotfix soon. Thanks

EDIT Adding from my comment as no one noticed.

I tried letting it sit there with the frozen screen that makes you think you D/C, it lets you go through - so far the two times I've tried. It just stops updating the loading process - or whatever it is called. I'll test it some more later when I'm out of class. But it's confusing when you see the loading screen frozen but not really frozen (apparently).

Give some feedback if someone tries this.

EDIT

Seems to be fixed

I have a setup with two screens, two desktops and I have to untask everytime as the loading screen just gets stuck. funny now my client is updating instead of letting me play like before. really rito?

I also have this issue. Sometimes it's a black loading screen, sometimes it loads usually the first 8 portraits of a normal game before freezing. The way it seems to fix is once enough time has passed that I'm the only loader on my loading screen. That occurs usually when I log out and close the app reopen and sign in (time passes) or I just Alt+F4 enough times and "reconnect" such that the game has already started. Hope these extra details help trouble shoot it.

I'm getting this as well, but not in a single custom game that I tested. (only player, no bots)

I get about half loaded and the screen just stops. My ping doesn't update, so I know the screen's frozen.

I have to kill the game and the pvp.net client, reload, relog, and rejoin. Then it loads, but it only shows my splash with all others being black spaces, but it does load quickly.

If I simply kill the game process (during the first stall) then click "reconnect" I get a black screen that does not load the game. A full exit seems to be required.

This is happening to me in every normal game I've played so on Rift since the last patch, whether I alt-tab or not.

I am running in windowed borderless mode. I have not tested this in true full screen mode.

This happens alot to me. its not really game changing because you rejoin at about 20 seconds of the game, but it really is annoying.

I also get a failure to connect once in a while. I log in, I get log in success...some failure window with Okay...that just closes the game. The only reason I am even typing this message because I am contemplating just not playing LoL till it's fixed...I simply crash every loading screen around 7-30% of my own load (which is usually first...sometimes there's only 4-5 people on the screen...) like everyone else, my ping stops fluctuating. I want to play the game...but, if I can't get back in right away, I am going to be A: late to the game...B: flagged for punishment if I can't get back in/someone reports me...I mean it's happening every game.

Edit: I've backed up a copy of my logs...just in case.

I'm disappointed this error made it live - it was one of the most complained about problems on the beta test servers. And it seems to almost always happen when I have a second monitor connected - whether I alt + tab or not.
