Explanation

Winter Event broke my game. DC's don't allow me to play. I have repaired files, and have even un-installed and re-installed the game. Internet connectivity is fine, been playing MMOs with 0 issues. I want to play the winter event as I have for years, but every single time I have played I have had giant jumps and disconnects that result in 5-30 minute delays.

I've just been having this problem- game will seemingly randomly decide to disconnect me from the match. It's happened 3 times tonight, and I had a 5 minute penalty and two 15 minute penalties. The popup in the endgame screen says "Dedicated server not responding" Edit: Just happened again, while I'm on call with my friend this time. Got it with medal, but I was playing normally, no internet problems or anything, now a 30 minute penalty. https://medal.tv/games/dead-by-daylight/clips/lNys55spSOH14Maq3?invite=cr-MSxLb2YsMTk5MTk3OTQz&v=30

This problem is happening in both event queue and regular queue btw, I now have an hour penalty for the game disconnecting me.
