I posted this in another chat section, but that was for ps4, and not sure if it will get any view due to the fact.

here is the forum link where i posted it originally:

Same issue for me on PC since last night and the 2 patches that got installed. I am playing from PC NA.

Launcher: fine
Game start: fine
Intro movies: fine
Logging into game and loading into character selection: Not fine

Gives me one of 3 endings when i attempt to login and it tries to load into character selection:
1. Due to inactivity, we have logged you out
2. time out error
3. just continues to load indefinitely.

No issue with internet, made a hole in my 2 security systems to let the games and folder through.
Tried late last night from 12:30 am - 3:00 am to login, and this morning same issue.

uninstalled and redownloading the game to see if it helps. though it is going to take a while as steam downloads a 85gb game, and then the launcher itself is going to download another 90gb game, and then patch.
