    Arkfalls and Seiges freezing 3/4 of the way through

    Just wanted to throw this out there and ask since I haven't seen it addressed here in the forums yet...
    I've noticed that since the DLC dropped, every time....and I do mean EVERY TIME I join either a major arkfall or a siege, everything seems to be fine up until about 3/4 of the way through and then it all goes FUBAR on me.
    Usually i notice that it's going sideways when I either can't reload my weapon, or it stops allowing me to change weapons.
    At that point....I see that everyone else in the area seems to be having the same issue.
    Enemies freeze, and players just run around randomly with nothing to do to continue.
    When I click the start menu my loadout is completely empty....and then usually within about 3 or 4 minutes later the server finally chokes out and gives me the infamous "critical error" message.
    Is this a universal thing or is it just on my end???
    Thanks in advance for any input on this, and Happy Ark Hunting....when you can

    Happens to me also. Some people claim it's due to BMG spam but I dunno.

    Or it could be that everyone switches to their friends phase when the arkfall is nearing the end which probably overloads the phase and randomly lags people out

    Sucks BIGTIME!!!!!!!
    The random bugs, glitches etc.....I can live with. It sucks, but it happens....
    Things like this that hit you in the "wallet" for a lack of better terms...they always cut just a little bit deeper each time :/

    Dump you system cache this started after the dash board updates to a lot of people.

    It seems to correct it self when you dump all the game patchs

    just make sure you do it tree times to force the system patch dump

    This only dumps a 5mb patch for defiance not the biggie this one is out side the one you have to do

    You will get a grey box saying you have a 5mb update when loading defiance if you have done this correctly

    This resolved the lock up for allot of players yesterday with the new dash board update
