Issue Type (Required):
Latency
Issue Description (Required):
Today I am experiencing a strange issue with DT where every minute or so my character drifts and controls become unresponsive as if network is hanging…but my network seems fine as far as a can tell. Good speed and no packet losses on any tests. I don’t seem to have any issues with anything else, just DT.
The issue only seems to happen within missions. It doesn’t seem to happen in the hub as far as I’ve noticed.
Any help would be hugely appreciated as it’s driving me nuts and obviously the game is entirely unplayable.

Hi Julia
Thanks, this is the latest log. I tried turning all GFX settings to low and rebooted the game but it made no difference. Might be coincidence but seems the ‘hang’ only occurs when enemies start coming thick and fast.

Fyi I hard reset all my network equipment and that seems to have fixed it for now, bizarrely. Very strange that DT was the only thing affected but hopefully that’s it sorted
