Cannot play the game

Postby socceralexi » Thu Feb 18, 2021 2:40 am

My game has not loaded properly 3 times, and I have been unable to play the game (mainly).
the glitch has happened to me 3 times, twice as jailor, once as janitor. All the exact same.
I cannot see targets, graveyard, role, name, known faction members etc.
I cannot open will or death note, I can open notes though.
I can vote guilty/innocent on people on stand, but I can't vote them up.

I believe this to be caused by the game not loading quick enough and therefore bugging out.
Every time it has occurred, I loaded into the game AFTER both the name selection and the role roulette screens, during the game has already began, such as D1 or even N1.
I can't see the chat history from before I loaded into the game,
I have loaded into the game AFTER the name selection screen BUT before the role roulette screen and the glitch hasn't occurred.

Proof of such glitch happening, (this is in a ranked game, and I was a Janitor) https://imgur.com/a/4I4eyqQ
Top left, I have no name and the game-mode is not there, below that there is no players in the graveyard (yet obviously someone has died)
Top right, I have no role or anything that comes with it, below that, I have no targets therefore making me unable to vote/visit people.
Next to the chat box, there is notes but no will, and Death-note doesn't pop up either.

Are you tabbing out while the game is loading?

Are you on WiFi?

Generally, this issue comes from assets not properly loading. I see it happen a lot for people who tab out of the game while it's loading as well as for people who's connection giving them hiccups caused by either packetloss or the connection being (temporarily) blocked by firewalls/persistent virusscanners.

First and foremost, I suggest not tabbing out while the game is loading, as well as making sure the program isn't being blocked by third party software (virusscanners, firewalls etc).

If the issue persists, verify the game's cache or reinstall. If it then still persists, a quick router reboot.
