1-2 Minute Loading Transitus Screens

The 1-2 Minute loading screens at the transitus is crazy.

Is this being addressed? Longer and longer loading screens in each area of the game is just nuts...

It wasn't happening at the transitus prior to the latest maintenance update.

    .... and you should always reboot your router BEFORE you want to transit elsewhere!
    How should the router know otherwise? >:)

    The game is actually loading resources in a normal amount of time, then holding you in the loading screen while it waits on the server. It's not a client-side issue as far as I can tell.

    This is wild speculation, but it probably has to do with the number of active clients running on a particular server node. After some arbitrary limit, it holds players in load screens longer to lower the number of active clients on that node and ease server load. Either that or you enter a queue when you are going to a busy node, so that you can't enter until someone leaves.

    This problem used to reliably happen when you'd enter a delve in Cyrodiil. I haven't been in one lately, so idk if it's still the same. If I were to wildly speculate again, it's because the client was waiting on the server to either "spin up" the delve (assuming it was empty), or to "move" your client over to the server node where the delve was running.

    The point is, having a fast computer and connection will not help you with this kind of long loading screen. Removing all your addons will not help, either.

    There's also an interesting issue with client crashes. You might blame the local system for it, until you're in teamspeak with folks and several crash at the same time. That's either a client bug affecting certain edge cases, or an ugly unhandled exception from a particular server response.

    I joked at the time that the 14 hour pre-Orisinium downtime was due to ZOS decommissioning server hardware and selling it so that the paychecks wouldn't bounce. These load screens aren't encouraging.
