Bug #573

Game Lags and Kicks Out After 15 Minutes of Play

Status:	Open
Priority:	High
Added by:	bobs5954 on January 6, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	9.3.2
Actual Result:	No DC penalty or being allowed to finish the match
Expected Result:	Kicked and getting a penatly like I abandoned the game
Severity:	Major
Reproducibility:	Frequently
Platform:	Steam
Additional Notes & Comments:	I do not abandon matches even when they're going nowhere, I want my points. What is the point of having bots if players still get this penatly?

Steps to Reproduce

1. Play the game
2. When it starts to lag it looks like the game is running as normal but you won't be able to interact with anything or move
3. Wait until it lags out and kicks you saying "dedicated server is not responding"
4. Get a DC penalty for getting kicked out

Explanation

When I play the game it begins to lag after about 15 minutes and then the game stops and kicks me out. I get a DC penalty like I chose to abandon the match. How do i stop this happening? When will the DC penalty be removed?
