Details:
I played for an hour or so on ps4, turned off for a while. When I came back to it a few hours later, I got stuck on an "initiating mission" loading screen playing as raider, before even getting to the character select screen. It hung there, and the loading icon continued to flip as if it were loading, could still move the pointer around, and screen still shifted about. Waited. Waited. Got 5 minutes in and quit, then came back.
It stays there on every match now, regardless of mission. I can't get to the select screen. I get further locked out because the game considers me to have "participated" in the game, and sees fit to punish me for "quitting early." If I quit the game completely, and return to it, it allows me to attempt to rejoin... Then stuffs me back into "initiating mission,' where it endless loops again, until the match is over and I get punished again. I'm on the fourth game I've attempted to join, in a row, where I'm stuck on "initiating mission" and then getting stuffed in the naughty corner for being unable to join, despite trying. Not only is it unplayable- I'm being actively punished by the MMR and the "don't be garbage and quit early" code.
The only thing I can see that might've caused this was I was level 31 when I took a hiatus. The final level of one of the mission sets was locked at 32, and when I came back, you guys had lowered the requirements, so it opened up for me.
I love the game, but unless this is fixed I outright can't play it.
