That's what I was thinking. Unbelievable that it is happening, tho. I mean, this isn't some newbie coding this stuff, I wouldn't think. They are a multi-million dollar company!
It's not just happening to me, either, I have been playing with others who complain after we start a match: "This isn't me!", then they quit, which creates another race condition, and I get stuck with a random character. Then I have to reboot, etc. Vicious cycle.
