When i try to host it dosen't let me(it stops responding), when i try to join a friends hosted, it loads stuff asks me to "start game" then stops responding, i also cant join multipleyer servers, when starting the game sometimes it just crashes, or on the main menu it crashes.

Ive tried to delete everything, i have no mods subscribed, i disabled my fire wall nothing works 😭 , none of my frieds are having the same issue, they can use mods too

Im on 42.18 i cant find anything online that helps 😭😭😭

I'm afraid so, there's a bug at the moment that means special characters in steam names cause hosted sessions to crash
