Brief description: Game freezing in MP when "start" button clicked.

Detailed description, conditions: ded fresh meat 2, select airfield, select plane, select setup, make choices, select accept and then when I press the start button the game freezes with the busy icon displayed:

The strange thing is that I can hear the plane idling on the runway and I can control the throttle but the game never starts. No other controls function and I have to go to task manager to shut BOS down.

Does not happen all the time but seems to happen when you are trying to start from an airfield where it may have been switched to "Max".

I noticed it listed as a fix also, but I have not had a chance to play the new ver yet. Hopefully later on today I'll get a chance.

I get the same issue an awful lot on that particular server but have not experienced it on any other so far. It has to be a server side issue?

Could be. I just went into MP and dead meat 2 is not listed. The original dead meat is though and I did not experience this issue so far after some limited testing.

Just went back into dead meat server and the same thing is happening. Maybe it is a server issue.

I experience this in 1.010 as well. It's fairly rare, something like 1 out of 10 sessions, and always seem to happen on the first respawn after I log into a server (that is: I fly once, crash or land and then it locks up as try to hit refly)

I've gotten it a couple of times with 1.010. Like Finkeren stated fairly rare. Last night I had it happen on two different servers on the first attempt to start, after re-staring BOS they were fine.

I've also had this happen to me on different servers, maybe it's conection problem ? Or bug

I get it everytime someone joins server before I can finish customizing load out and press start. I now rush through menu as fast as possible...

Can we get some sort of acknowledgment on this issue? It only started with the most recent patch and its getting really atrocious.

It happens all the time. I also see lots of folks joining, exiting, joining, exiting, repeat. I think folks give up trying to enter.
