TylertheGreat 1 Posted October 6, 2017 Does anyone get kicked mid match with an error message saying "connection timed out" ? It happens to me a lot I'm on PS4 btw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ_isoverrated 48 Posted October 7, 2017 Yes same I am getting disconnected almost every game since last week just now I had a game as Jason where I killed 7/8 I am about to go for the 8th person and I disconnect this is very frustrating Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ste_Wolf 228 Posted October 7, 2017 Happens once in a while for me on PS4 as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toddarino 182 Posted October 7, 2017 I thought I read that this only happens 1% of the time, which is obviously not correct. Above all else this is my number one complaint with the game and it refuses to be addressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like I'm always telling people to chill here, but this (and hosts quitting) have made it hard for me to justify playing much. my free time is crazy limited and if I'm going to use it playing games, i actually want to play, not sit around waiting for people to ready-up in a lobby that'll end abruptly a minute in to the game when yet-another host quits after he realizes he's not jason... or even worse... the host that rage quits 15 minutes in to the match because you were able to repair the car and escape after calling the police. i played for an hour after work Thursday and didn't successfully complete a single match. one hour of play and i didn't earn a single XP point. I'm level 64, playing since launch, and i swear if it wasn't for these issues, I'd have been level 101 a few months ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiffany 290 Posted October 7, 2017 This happens to me very regularly and honestly fills me with rage. It’s SO annoying. That feeling when I’m running towards a cabin and then my person just keeps running straight, hits the wall, and keeps running, and I lose control of their function... no words can describe how annoyed it makes me. Hoping to god this gets resolved in the next patch because it has been an ongoing issue for me since buying the game. I loce this game and want to be able to play it the way it was intended. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silencedeffect 135 Posted October 7, 2017 I get disconnected every other game.. I just close the app and boot it back up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toddarino 182 Posted October 7, 2017 I found the post. It's a few pages back in a locked thread. It says they are below a 1% crash rate. There's no way that crash includes the connection timed out error. Six matches tonight. Three dropped connections. Fuck this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CountYorgaVampir 373 Posted October 17, 2017 This happened to me today. When I rebooted the disc (PS4) and connected the first two minutes of game play was super laggy. Fortunately it went away before Jason found me. It was damn close! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
willworldwide 0 Posted October 18, 2017 Yea, I actually just went and upgraded my internet today thinking that was the issue. Now, I'm running at least 100 megs hard wired into my ps4. I've timed out of the first 3 lobbies. I'm running speed tests & my connection is very fast. This is really frustrating. I really did think a higher speed of internet would fix this!!

He's Killing Me 239 Posted October 18, 2017 It black screens at the beginning of the match and times out on me pretty often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The exactly same situation here. We need really try hard to get to play a good match. One thing I can't understand is why even when I'm in a low-ping session (everyone has ping less than 88ms), playing smooth matches, the errors happen (session expired, timeout, unknown error..).

Trunks 0 Posted October 20, 2017 I get this fucking error nearly every 2nd game. And if there isnt that error then the host rage quits. Game is nearly unplayable right now on ps4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Groovalicious666 11 Posted November 3, 2017 Private matches are often as screwed up as public ones. I have a community I play with, and have spent upwards of an hour setting up matches with everyone. One joins a party, and two get connection timed out messages, or cannot connect to host messages. Sometimes it's within the first minute of play, other times halfway through the match. Usually 2-3 people get the boot, then inevitably say; " Got a connection timed out message." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thad Kerrington 11 Posted November 3, 2017 This has happened to me since post-patch (most recent) more than it ever did. Before the most recent patch it would happen to me once or twice a week. Now its about once or twice a day when I play. Kinda frustrating, and hopefully its something they address. Glad to know its happening to other people (not that I want it to) and not just my game/connection. I've had several Jason matches that wouldn't been 7/8 or 8/8 then BAM no connection or exp! Also happened to me at the worst possible time, when I was about to be the sole survivor as Tiffany, and earn that achievement. One counselor left and she was being stalked by Jason, with like 6 minutes left in the match. The one time I was actually rooting for Jason to get that kill. Oh well! I know there will be more time, but I just really wanted that one done and over with. Game is still great, and I love it....even with its flaws. I still would like to see this issue addressed, and away around this raging host quit issue. Other than that, I'm a happy camper! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Curse 5 Posted November 14, 2017 Just happened to me when I was playing Jason. First of all I suck playing him....had one kill. I'm not a rage quitter. On a positive note.....I do love the game. It is like playing and watching a "B" movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pazuzu 120 Posted April 10, 2018 So what do all the different "connection lost" messages actually mean? I see different variations from time go time but I'm not that computer savvy to understand it all: Connection to host lost Connection timed out (appeared after I finished a match and received my points) You were kicked: Host has left the game (ok, this one is pretty self explanatory lol) Connection closed by host, or network failure received Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tommy 325 Posted April 11, 2018 @Pazuzu I like the session heartbeat failure. Probably my personal favorite of them all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
