Doors not working after a death and choosing Release has happened to me twice in two days. It happened in two different locations. It happened once yesterday in Imperial City. After I respawned in the safe area i could not take the hatch back to the alliance base. I tried jumping off and going to a different district but that door or the sewer entrance would not work either. I had to kill myself twice (loosing 20% of my Telvar stones) before I could get a door to work.
It happened again today in Old Orsinium. I chose to release and was going to leave as I was done playing this area for the day and the door to leave Old Orsinium didn't work. I logged out and back in and it let me leave.
In both cases I was able to fight and get credit for fighting in the area I was stuck in, so rest of the mechanics were working. The doors to leave the area were the only things not working. I did have the activation button to leave "E" , it just did not perform its function when I tried to leave. It didn't appear to be a server disconnect issue, as I said everything else was working as it should.
