This time it's the streets map file that got corrupted - I got ulted by Haze, game crashed out completely to desktop and corrupted the streets map vpk.
Unable to rejoin the match in time - Resulting in an abandon yet again. @Yoshi - Can you PLEASE extend the game abandon timeout so I can at least ATTEMPT to rejoin a game in a meaningful timeframe? Or just fix the bug that causes these corrupt files so I can playtest the game?
For the record - I was able to FINALLY fix the bug and force the game to revalidate by deleting the .exe files & an additional non-corrupted VPK file, but as always it was too late for me to be able to avoid the insanely aggressive leaver flag. @Yoshi - Game id: 30192035 - Please can you unban and reset my ban counter or something - This is absurd for me to be getting progressively longer bans for helping to find bugs.
Problem: Game crashes randomly(mostly after you die as every screenshot i found in the forum is from dead players) and indicates a file gets corrupted mostly "...\game\citadel\pak01.vpk"
Sure no problem lets just try to repair game or relaunch:
Steam does not respond after you try to relaunch game even after 5 mins, at this point i force close the process with task manager and reopen steam and try to repair which then takes alot of time, in some cases i resorted to deleting the file and it is faster to reaquire it then having to scan and repair, this however has not fixed...
I have the same issue a lot. Yesterday I crashed in the first engagement, and was back in while people were still in the 4-5k soles. I actually caught up and played the whole game through, no one else left because I was able to come back so quickly. I still got a 6 hour ban from that one even though the whole game was played by everyone
