I sometimes get an infinite black loading screen trying to do trials, usually I can load back in but it just looped back to the infinite loading art screen this time after restarts.
It's not the hard drive because I play sometimes from an SSD and somtimes an HDD, and another PC, and it happens very rarely but still on all. I try to disconnect the internet from network connections for a second to force a re-log menu, usually that works but this time it did not.

I'm assuming it is Shiva because it is the only trial I have seen it happen before to myself and others (including family), but when I check after finally loading (presumably after a kick which I really don't blame anyone for doing) the recent played just says "--". Even when it happened to other people I always see them able to reconnect and load in. This is the only time I wasn't able to load in even after restarting many times and unfortunately online friend wasn't looking at the time to check what duty I was in. I could still hear the party message noises the whole time when on loading screens. It's happened on a few different internet connections, also, including direct ethernet, + different ISPs.
