Disconnects, late game joins

jrob007-1884 · April 27, 2019, 8:23pm

Several weeks ago I noticed I was disconnecting a lot. I’d join a Quick Match, find party members, go to the loading screen, then it would just hang there for a time. Sometimes a really long time. Eventually I’d see the “reconnecting” screen and I’d be back in the game. If I was lucky my team was still Level 1, but other times my team was already Level 10. It’s becoming more common for me to join the game late then at the start. I’ve restarted my router and modem and also uninstalled and reinstalled the game, but it hasn’t fixed the issue. Other games are fine and have no issues.

I have the same computer, and I’m having the same issues. A few games I’ll join in right away, other times, it will disconnect me, and I’ll be back within the first minute of the game.

Possibly related, but my game has be stuttering off and on when playing. FPS doesn’t drop below 30, but it will hang for a few frames every second.

I never did get this issue resolved and after a time I grew frustrated and just stopped playing on macOS. I have a separate external Thunderbolt SSD with Windows installed so I can play some Windows games and run Windows programs. I’ve always loved playing Blizzard games on macOS figuring they have supported Macs for years.

I decided it was time to install Battle .net on my Windows drive to see if HotS had the same issues. To my surprise the game runs perfectly normal. So it’s definitely a macOS client issue, which may or may not get fixed. Considering the state of HotS, I get this feeling the Mac client isn’t getting many fixes these days. I suppose I’m just using macOS strictly for work now.
