Sudden extreme lag, fps drops and disconnects(1)Category: Technical SupportJanuary-19-2016 5:51 PM PST (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Since two days ago I've been literally unable to play Diablo, as all of a sudden EVERY loading screen takes a good five minutes, during which it keeps stopping to respond, after which there's a 9 out of 10 chance I'll just get a message that says "Your client has been disconnected" when it does finally load.

When I do finally get through ONE loading screen, I'm stuck on a slideshow of 3 fps to 10fps on my way to make a rift. Then there's another 5 minute loading screen, which again has a 9 out of 10 chance to disconnect me if I even make it through without the game stopping to respond completely, and then once again I'm stuck with an unplayable slideshow.

Nothing has changed in either my hardware, software, or connection.
I am able to play LITERALLY EVERY OTHER GAME on maximum settings at 60fps without any sort of problems.
But apparently Diablo is the only game that's giving me so much trouble out of the blue, while it was just running perfectly a few days ago.

So far I've tried EVERY fix I could find on the forums, reddit and diablofans forums, up to and including repairing twice and reinstalling 3 times, flushing my dns numerous times, removes caches WTF etc. I've tried everything save for buying a new PC, basically.

What the hell is going on?
