Loading screen : match fails to start

[cilantroforest]

Have not had any issues joining matches prior to today. Just had this happen like 6 times already where the match says loading after queue.
After a few minutes the game kicks me back to the main menu

After restarting the game again for like the 5th time maybe, it seems to load into games now.

Only started seeing this issue after yesterday's update. Occurred in one of several tries to start a game in any game mode, but I can no longer repro it.

The whole loading time lasted for ~1.5 mins. Also note the overall lagging (noticeable at the beginning).

yeah, i also monitored game's resource usage in Task Manager. Should not be for this game, however, I see RAM usage leveraging to like 3GB and then crashed. My system is 8GB (and 4GB for VRAM) and that much would be enough to make it feel lil' cripple. Maybe it's the actual reason for now.

sometimes before it flew back to main menu once every game start, but i could join after one or more attempts. I know it's alpha test but yeah, this is not so comfortable to play, especially on lower end devices with little RAM amount (given 8GB and an optional graphics card is the basic criteria)

The issue persists.

The latest example:
The match is "partially loaded" and non-playable (a black screen visible with the HUD elements and the heroes list from the previous screen – i.e., hero selection screen). In about a minute a redirection to the main menu occurs.
