This is a problem that I've been having for some time and usually happens to players with 150ms or more.
Basically some time after they've joined the game, the message "player disconnected" shows up and they disappear from the game. However, they still play like normal and can kill enemies, interact, etc. and to them I also appear "disconnected".
This is really weird because other players can see me and the other player just fine.
It becomes really annoying to play like this in stealth because I have no idea where my friend is, making it impossible to coordinate, and in loud its even worse because even if they can kill enemies, they appear "alive" to me, so I can't walk through dead bodies of cops unless I kill them a second time.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

I’d assume this is desync between you and the other player. To fix this I’d recommend using SteamMM in your launch options by inputing -steamMM
Steams matchmaking doesn’t have this issue and should resolve it. You’re unable to play with any other players that aren’t also using SteamMM, that being said make sure both you and your friends also use -steamMM
The join code feature is missing so you’ll have to friend the host individually or use a lobby link to join
