Most players timeout on the first attempt of joining the server. If you type retry in console after your first timeout you should be able to join alot faster. It could also just be purely because your computer is too slow. Could you post your specs?

I literally only understood 90% of that, and im on a laptop cause fml. It was working perfectly last night, and I have no clue whats going wrong this time. I will attempt the console retry thing though

I had the same sh*t, but I removed some useless addons and checked game cache, seemed to fix it.

Whenever I go from any different gamemode or from SP to Imperial Gaming, I time out like this. Its not that bad, just adds a few minutes to your load time.

can you take a screen shot of console when you timeout. Your computer may also be running out of memory (RAM) if your on a laptop which would be the result of a lot of addons, you can test this by having task manager open and have the performance to see if your capping your max ram output when you load into the server. the only way to help that is to remove a few addons to try and lower down your RAM usage.
