Game loaded to 96% and hung. Ctrl+Alt+Deleted the program (a VERY familiar task) and attempted to reload the game. Steam informed me that the game was still running. Ok.. Ctrl+Alt+Delete AGAIN, look under processes, find that both the game client and the UI overlay are still running. Kill them both, relaunch the game. Game loads successfully. After looking at the number of people posting problems on the forums, and the wide spread nature of these problems I just GOTTA ask.. You pushed this to live? Really? Maybe this is why you don't let your testing staff go when your game is still in development? (EDIT: I spoke too soon, it loaded the main menu and now refuses to connect to a server. Just.. wow. /EDIT)
I'm not even getting to 96%. Mine refuses to download a single kilobyte, and I've got a ~74MB patch to download. Not that big, but when you can't download ANYTHING, it makes things kinda difficult. I've tried validating, antivirus, firewall, running as admin, all that jazz. None of it's working. I've submitted a support ticket to SOE, hopefully someone will help us out. If I get word back and this isn't resolved, I'll let you guys know.
Ok, so I have had this problem before (still unknown WHY it happened the first time) and now I have it AGAIN. I am stuck at 96% loading on the first loading screen after the launcher. I have let it sit for HOURS and it is still at 96%. Cmon devs can you please do something about this? Its getting kind of ridiculous. (BTW: it works on my other computer but I cant use it due to multiple persons in my household.)
I only get stuck at 96% after respawning... But sometimes i get stuck in something ive coined "limbo" afterwards. Even if i quit the game/taskkill it i can still hear everyone in squadchat, Ive checked taskmanager and there is nothing to do with PS2 open. I only ever get this with the 96% bug
Has any dev. reviewed this...I just came back after over a month got a patch and I'm stuck at this 96%load.
Yes, I guess this is something that happens every patch/update. The launchthingportalthing is overloaded?
Same here. I'd prefer to not have to restart, my computer has a lot of stuff running. Gonna try it and report.
Same. I think it has something to do with their servers, being overloaded or something. Try again later.
Calm down. Happens every patch. https://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/index.php?search/6007245/&q=Loading stuck 96&o=date
Hmmm, in Problem Management you LEARN from mistakes and take steps to PREVENT PROBLEMS from occurring again. Any chance SOE is still employing the guy that figured this problem out last time? Maybe they have good documentation? Hmmm, guess we'll see. *grabs popcorn and sits down to watch the drama unfold*
