Endless Connectivity screen ingame - No lag - Game freeze !

SO was playing a Great game , And 30 min into , Game connectivity screen comes up showing no lag , great pings and 1 member each team ejected .. stays that way for ever , cause everyone stayed and chated hoping it would clear up . no such luck , we ended up just all quiting (ctl-alt-del) about 15 min later

No lag , Just all of a sudden , game freeze , connectivity screen .. and we can all chat to each other ..

Had this... when a few people left, it desynced.  Was frozen for quite some time.

Edit - to be more specific.  Playing a 4v4.  The connectivity screen popped up.  We could all chat.  No movement on the screen.  The connectivity screen stayed up.  We waiting 5-10 min.  Nothing happened.  Someone disconnects.  Nothing happens.  Someone else disconnects - we see desync message and game ends.

Had the same frozen connectivity problem.  We were winning pretty handily in a 3v3 cataract game.  Connectivity screen came up, counted up to about :05 for one of my teammates, then showed him conceding.  I doubt that he purposely conceded, we were maybe 5 min. from winning.  The connectivity screen showed that he had been ejected by all 3 of our opponents and me, but not my remaining partner.  We 5 chatted for a while, and then my remaining pard conceded.  The game then picked back up and played.  Predictably, the 3 humans made a stunning comeback against me and the 2 AI.

My first two games encountered this problem. The game unfroze when one of the two people that was being dropped left the game. In one instance, the game counted and the other the game didn't.

lets me clear here this is not a normal freeze thing

WHO fits this bill

1. Everyone can chat

2. when msg first pops up  Pings are great and still pinging (changeing over time fluctuatiing)

3. 1 person shows as ejected by other and vice versa  

(name)

Serpentdrago ejected by Timmy

(name)

Timmy ejected by SerpentDrago

(name)

 

4. the ejected are always on diffrent teams

 

5. if somone then quits the game after "freeze" its updates fine and shows them quiting

6. theres 0 lag (sec)

 

SO in wrap everything chat / disconnects showing / good pings are working fine but its frozen on this (double) ejected dialog with no lag

In my game, 1 person was ejected on my team, the other team (3 players) and I showed him ejected.  My remaining partner was not ejected, but also did not show ejecting the first player.  We all 5 could chat.  When my remaining partner conceded, the game was functional again.

I had this too. Dev's take notice. Connectivity issues are hurting the value of this game.

I've had this happen like 10 times nows.  It's getting old.  Some times it will just pop up the disconnect screen and nothing happens. We let it go for awhile too.  You end up having to Ctrl+alt+del and end tasking the game cause you can't even quit.  It's stupid.  Other time your teammates will concede, I conceded one time and i never conceded. The my game just ended. Wtf. Was able to still chat with everyone though, so it's still connected.   It's definitely an issue though.  3 out of 5 games tonight it happened.  One instance, it counted down a player, then stopped and never disconnected him. And just sat there then.  He was still able to chat to us.

So aggravating.

This happens when some players lose the connection to one player but others don't.
