Stuck in loading screen with "Almost ready"
Mode: Peer-to-peer and Dedicated Server
OS: Win10
DirectX
I cant play any multiplayer game, the loading is complete and stays still at "Almost ready" and just stays like that. I tried waiting and sometimes the game joins but of course its already ruined since it started for everyone else and they leave. If I try to close the game and start again to reconnect, the reconnect button does not show up or I have penalty. My ranked team rating is now 0 as a result of this bug. I tried waiting 40 minutes one time and still the game just stays at the loading screen. The game didnt crash as I checked task manager. This issue started since 3.0.17 for me. My ranked team rating is now 0 as a result of this bug.

CadetPlaying in Conquest, peer-to-peer, dedicated servers, and in multiplayer mode, I am always, no matter what, stuck in the "Almost ready!" screen. And if I do eventually load in, the lag is impossible to deal with. My operating system is Windows 10. I have tried using Directx and OpenGL but that does not change my issue for better or for worse. What happens is: I have either me or my friend create the lobby, (peer-to-peer, Conquest, Multiplayer dedicated servers) It will load until the "Almost Ready!" , my friends are in the lobby where it reads "waiting for players..." and It will eventually let them play, but I am still stuck loading in. I have changed my firewall settings, redownloaded the game, Verify my files integrity, and even make the game higher in priority in my task manager. I don't believe it is an issue with my internet after testing all I can with it, and the fact that it was working in the past.

JamesI don't play MP but I have this same issue when trying to play a custom (vs AI) game.
I tried both directX and OpenGL, I tried reinstalling and verifying game files in Steam, but the issue persists.
A regular singleplayer game works fine, it's only on custom that I have this issue. -

PaulI have the same Issue since the latest patch (Trials of Odin). Very often but not allways i hear everbody building while i only see the loading screen. At the beginning of the bug, it worked mostly to rejoin and then play on. But now not even this workes. I have to mention that the chat works for me while i sit in the loading screen, so i can tell everybody whats up. but as a result of not even beeing able nowadays to rejoin the game, (the bug just stay) i get avoided/kicked out of lobbys and ppl get mad at me even sometimes tell everyone to report me because they think i lie and just want to avoid the match. its really frustrating..
Btw, i realised that the bug occurred for the first time in spectator mode but when i clicked the buttom "disable ui" i could see the map but only then. i hope it helps
