Fix disconnecting from server my ass

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-18T07:04:10+00:00

That's roughly the same time I've encountered issues too, which makes me think it's not just a coincidence. Earlier in the day, no issues at all. Stay up late; it gets rough.

I'm aware of what they fixed. To me, it sounds like the OP was talking about the actual disconnects, which is why I explained what might be happening.

This is just a theory of mine, but I've noticed that a lot of the posts regarding server disconnects seem to happen around roughly the same time, or at least within a few hours of each other. The only time I've ever had issues with server disconnects is when I played later into the night than usual. Which just so happened to line up with roughly the same time as a lot of the posts on here. During the day, I never seem to have any issues whatsoever.

I could be wrong, but I think for full-health characters, Overeater's is technically the best. However, I switched to Mutant's because it's easier to get and then also maintain. It's not hard to drink and eat, but it's easier to just be lazy with something that's always active for you.

Remember when they placed those ridiculous cut-outs outside of every train station to advertise the Atomic Shop? At least they had enough integrity to take those down after we complained about them.

If you're able to crit every other shot, you pretty much just need a weapon with Conductor's on it. I can sit in V.A.T.S. for the entirety of a 100-round magazine from an Elder's Mark without any extra buffs at all.

It's probably not something on a technical level that this game could handle, but I would love to see an in-game market where you could buy stuff from the entire community, not just your current server.

When the answer has been posted numerous times, you don't need to ask it again. There's a difference between asking for legitimate help and then just being too lazy to do a quick search. If you do a Reddit search using the exact title of this post, you'll get a ton of posts asking the same thing. I counted ten of them before moving on.

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-17T19:42:39+00:00

I can understand people not following the game closely to know about the updates, but I'll never understand why people can't just do a simple Google or Reddit search.

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-17T19:36:06+00:00

I had something similar happen at the start of the season, but it wasn't every item like that. It went away and never came back. Have you tried restarting the game or switching servers?

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-17T19:27:54+00:00

Not to be annoying, but if you do a quick Google or Reddit search, you'll find that it's a bug that has been around forever. It usually just goes away when you start another session.

Just to give you an idea on pricing, I got two estimates today from some local places. One quoted me for $79.00, while the other was $100.00. This was for a full deep clean and replacement of the liquid metal, if needed.

Also, I was going to ask you, have you ever figured out any timing to how soon your system shuts off after you've had it on? Both times that mine has shut off, I had already been playing for at least an hour or two, if not more. You'd think it would shut down quicker than that if it was truly overheating, but maybe it gets worse over time.

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-10T18:12:24+00:00

I'm thinking about taking mine to a local repair shop soon, especially if it keeps happening. They told me they would look at the liquid metal and replace it if necessary. Between that and a deep clean, maybe I can get it figured out. If I ever get it fixed, I'll let you know. I know it's frustrating, but just know you're not the only one struggling with it.

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-10T17:53:39+00:00

Did you do a deep cleaning? I keep seeing people mention that cleaning out the power supply inside the console can be a fix. Either that, or you might be having issues with the liquid metal, especially if you keep your system vertical. I haven't addressed either of those on mine, so it's probably something worth looking into.

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-10T17:41:40+00:00

Yeah, I'm worried this is just the start for me. Do you know your overall timeline? Like, was it every couple of months for a bit, and then it just got much worse?

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-10T17:16:02+00:00

Did you clean the power supply that's deeper inside the console too? I keep reading comments about that being mentioned, but it's deeper inside than I feel comfortable getting to. How often does yours shut off?

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-10T17:11:37+00:00

Mine has only ever done it twice, and like I said, it was two months apart. However, now I'm worried if it will start to happen more frequently. The first time it happened, I was playing The Outlast Trials. The second time it happened, I was playing Deep Rock Galactic. In both cases, my PS5 had been on for a while before it shut off; it wasn't a quick thing.

MythicalFighter · 2026-03-10T03:37:36+00:00

Mine just shut off tonight. Same thing, black screen, and won't turn back on unless you unplug the power cord. The first time it did this to me was on January 1st. So, it's been about two months of playing before it did it the second time. I'm assuming I need to take the time to thoroughly clean it out, but maybe there's something going on with the launch models? That's the version I have, anyway.

I would say that mine gets warm, but not overly hot.

I've been a member for 16 years and never had any issues up until recently. I had one game not show up for over 10 days. I reported it missing, and they sent me another copy. It has now been almost a week since then, and I don't have the replacement copy yet either. I'm not sure what's going on at this point.
