Areas won't load

Also this looks like it depends on where you are teleporting to, on my main I have at the top right Patching 7 files, 0 bytes/sec, on my alt it states patching 5 files, 0 bytes/sec After about 5 minutes the game restarts.

Having zone load issues in Champions also.

Small update, I was able to get a hold of someone, so now I know that they are becoming aware of the issue and looking into it.

Got stuck in limbo in random queue for Tiamat. It was unresponsive for about 5 mins. Had to close the client eventually.

Its not just since last night. Its been happening to me since last patch (Thursday). Usually once or twice a day and I'd say less than 5 minute wait each time until about 1:00 A.M. EST today when loading House of Croc took so long I got the "you have been idle" message but short enough to remain logged in.

I did a force verify after the first one on Thursday and I still get the slow zone loads.

Started having loading into game issues today myself. The game typically has no issues with game play. Be nice to be informed on when this new issue will be fixed.

bodeez · March 2018

Created a new character and unable to get into the new zone as well. Going to take a break for an hour or so and check back. I also submitted a ticket. Thank you kreatyve for getting ahold of someone.

A character of mine that was stuck last night is now working. Please share if you are still stuck.

I am in Germany and stuck with two chars right now. The usual "xx files are patching" showed up and that was it. That's now for about 2 hours.

Hello guys , dont know whats going on , i cant get in to game ...game just freezes at NEVERWINTER loading screen (patching in top left corner) pls help asap.

qexotic · March 2018

Just checked by trying to get my HR into Kessel's Retreat again. Hung just below 50% while loading patches. Visiting a freind shortly, so no more testing on this PC for a while.

dagmur · March 2018

I did a tracert. It's 177 ms to Neverwinter from Germany. That's not good but not bad either. The Zones are just not loading.

rzani · March 2018

Same issue since 9am EST.

To everyone in this thread.

The only solution I can offer is to turn On Demand Patching off - you'll find it under Options on the launcher - restart the launcher and patch the whole game. Yes it's about 7MB patch, at least that was what mine was, and that takes a while, but until this is fixed Cryptic side this is the only fix I've found that works.

I have now two characters I can't seem to load in any zones with ... this is insane when you can't even load into Protectors Enclave! This last time ...it's been 45 min and i'm still not loaded into the Chasm!!! WTH

It's 9 + GB to me, means since we are having issues, it will take a while. But thank you. Let's pray to some of the gods of Neverwinter, it might help.

Too Much Lagg!! Can't hardly play the game i lag in Tomb Of The Nine Gods and everywhere!!!!!.

I am unable to load my character. Basically the loading bar at the bottom of the screen loads to 90% and then freezes. The upper-left hand of my screen that says, "Patching", where it shows the little radial symbol that shows the progress of the patching halts completely as well.
