[Xbox] Game Crashes in loading transitions

[Kid-Tempest]

I'm glad we got some confirmation of them prioritizing this issue. I can stop stalking their Twitter/X page now. I was wondering if they were going to ban me for calling them out as much as I did lol.

for me it happens in all the transitions. from lodaing screen, to any duty, dungeouns, MSQ scenes, teleportations. pretty much anything that triggers a loading screens. i hate it. i cant enjoy anything at all early release.

Yeah at least we know now, makes me feel better about it for sure. Hopefully it doesn't take too long but as long as it's actively getting fixed I'm fine for the moment. Lol just sucks all this happened on my only two off days for the week

Be glad you are on Seraph. My homeworld is Leviathan. I started playing on Seraph two days ago just to be able to get things done. It is exponentially better on Seraph than Leviathan. However, the trade-off is Seraph has far less on marketboard and queue times are much longer. However, I'd rather have longer queues than constant freezing.

I'm guessing no further updates? I really want to play.

I've been playing through the problems. If you're just doing MSQ or other solo activities, it's annoying but not too bad to have to kill the game and restart it. If you're on a congested server and/or playing around primetime, it might help to temporarily transfer to Dynamis to mitigate the long queues when you inevitably have to restart, although you should be aware of the limitations when you're a traveler—and note that you may not be able to transfer back until a less busy time of day.

For group content, if I manage to load into the duty successfully (which is most of the time, although I've had it freeze twice on first join), I let the party/alliance know that I'm on Xbox and may crash out on loading screens (having a keyboard helps a LOT here). People are generally pretty understanding as long as they know what's going on, though I also had one weird instance where I froze during an alliance raid while on Dynamis, and came back to find that I was back in the world and couldn't rejoin the duty.

The situation sucks, yeah, but as a software developer myself, maybe I'm a little more sympathetic to the whole situation. Xbox is not a "red-headed stepchild," and CS3 is not a bunch of lazy devs—you can test all you want, but testing conditions and simulations will never be a replacement for having hundreds of thousands of people actively hammering the system. Issues like this can be especially difficult to troubleshoot and debug when they depend on such variable conditions, and I'm sure they're just as frustrated as we are and trying their best to get it fixed. Just give it time

So far for the first time since early access I've been able to load into dungeons without the black screen freezing. I've played about 3 leveling quests so far without any issue, fingers crossed it stays this way.

Hopefully this is a sign of them working on the resolution. I've avoided the game until they can give the "all clear" message.

They already mentioned a seperate patch is required to solve the issue. It is probably better for some people, because player count goes down. On less populated servers, the problem accours less frequent.
I hope they are ready soon… it’s still super annoying even on less populated datacenters.
