When I enter game it says there is a new patch and I need to restart. When I restart it downloads nothing but just validates everything again and takes 15+ mins, super frustrating! Also, if I take too long after validating to enter game I have to do it all again!

I have tried:

1. Updating all drivers etc.
2. clearing steam download chache
3. Reinstalling the game from scratch

Still have same issues.

Also, I am South African playing on South African server.

yeah +1 on this crap

well annoying especially when your struggling servers kick me out and then ive got to watch it validate for six minutes
Also from South Africa and having the same issue, having to wait 15+ mins everytime I launch is not fun.

Have also reinstalled and no change, might swap to another server and see if this has any affect.

Will update if it worked.
+1 Also playing on SA server
Yea also from South Africa.... Really weird.

I'm probably going to stop playing until this is sorted. Not taking a chance with my nvme drive.
