when are they going to fix it?

They never fixed the infinite loading loop, you think they're gonna fix this? Just goes to show how much they really care. I just wish they would hire someone that's not out of their depth.

Run the game in safe mode and type in -d3d9 to the command line to launch the game. It will take a few minutes to load, and may become unresponsive for a minute or two, but be patient, you will eventually reach the character select screen

Kata's reply is in regards to a crash. Seeing just a black screen with no error message simply means, "Have Patience, the Client is now re-initializing game assets." Basically, just wait and don't do anything. It will take longer or shorter depending on the speed and quality of one's computer.

For crashing issues, a new sticky has been made, please direct attention and replies to the following thread now. Thanks!
