[Xbox] Game Crashes in loading transitions

[TheKingPsycho]

It’s definitely better than yesterday seemingly. I had a streak of a few hours even was able to use aethershard a few times… closer to afternoon though and now persisting it’s happened a few times in a shorter time span as opposed to the morning where I was almost convinced it was fixed

So it might have something to do with server population

it for sure is population issue, i went to the "Shadow"Datacenter and didnt had any single issue the whole day

Game froze on my home server, Leviathan.
Restarted. and was 528th in queue.
Went to another datacenter, 28th in queue.
Game froze at the end of a quest as it has been doing.
Restarted, and went to another datacenter, no queue, logged in immedately.
Played for about 30 minutes and game crashed at quest completion.

There is far more going on here than a population issue.

I'm on OCE where wait queues are like 8-12 people long - and I'm still getting it this morning. I'm sure population is a factor, but not the only one.

For what it's worth, while I'm annoyed, I'm 85% sure this will require a hotfix that goes through Mircorsoft cert.
It's definitly not caused purely by congestion or solely by user settings, nor is it based on type of internet connection.
There's something amiss with the way the game is loading/streaming assets that seems to cause the crash. It's not just a loading/instancing issue, since travel within a town or dungeon also causes crashing (I just had a client crash litrally right now [1:14pm, 30/06GMT] teleporting from the outskirts of earthenshire into earthenshire, within the same instance).
Without knowing anything at all about the architecture of this game specifically, based on the sorts of things that seem to make it worse (playing on an external drive, congestion, etc) it sounds like any delay in data streaming is causing the Xbox to freak out and lock up. This is unlikely to be a datacentre-side issue (or it'd be impacting other platforms), which means a patch.

If you log in and there's no patch, the issue is very likely still there.
