Changing servers issues

Anyone else having trouble changing free roam servers? I keep getting  stuck on the loading screen. It gets annoying to always close and restart the game to change servers!

Yeah, I can't just change lobby anymore, I'm having to close app and reload every time I want to change.

Yep, in addition to animals being broken you have to be careful how you even join a game.

 

I really hope they get back into the offices soon and do some work on this completely borked game. I'd like to actually play it the way it was intended.

 

Not to mention the first snow event in the game and you can't even experience any fauna!

my moonshine gets reseted any second production, so I cant play the moonshine role.

stuck in loading screens during lobby change / bootlegger mission /sell missions

I've been in a solo lobby since yesterday afternoon, animals are everywhere.  I get attacked by cougars everywhere I go BUT spawning camp is an issue.  I can't get it to spawn in several regions so I've had to settle for a location that is less convenient.  Regardless, I don't want to leave it so I checked before I left for work this morning, Still there!!!  Controller plugged in for charging, interacting with the post master so I don't get kicked but with my luck I'm sure it will be gone by the time I get home

This has been a problem particularly when trying to change servers to avoid hackers.  Ran into two different asshats this morning (yay, I threw someone across the hill and set him on fire, hurrrr - I don't get the fascination), reported said asshats and then got the infinite loading screens when trying to change servers.  Both times I had to quit the game and reload.  Think I'm headed back to finish SP (still in Chapter 4) until some of this gets worked out and the kiddies go back to school.

I take your session any day. I never use the camp anyway since animals not spawning anymore!

Yep, me too. Add that to the list of things they have broken.

Yes--same here (Steam version). The only time I can spawn in to a session is the first game launch spawn.

 

If I exit back to the menu, then try and spawn into any free roam session, the loading screen is endless, forcing me to restart the game completely.

 

Why the heck don't they just reuse the same working session spawn code for later session respawns?

I play on ps4, so does my brother and we are always in a party talking during gameplay, when he's in another session/lobby then me and i want to go into his session so we can ride together, i use the D-pad left, players, R1 to show friends, click on his name and choose join session, that works for changing session with out the infinite loading screen, so if you know that someone in your friends list is playing RDO, you could use that...

 

Just wanted to share this.
