Latest Maintenance = unable to login?

Maintenance has concluded and when I click on my character to login I'm only given the "Requesting character load" which continues till I'm kicked for inactivity. Anyone else experiencing the same issues or am I the only one?
I've tried unplugging my Xbox and restarting, restarting my router, exiting the game, and restarting my console.

    On the PC, I try the Login Triple Step, although rebooting your console should have done the same thing. But, try this

    1. Try to login, if it takes longer than normal, stop the login
    2. Try to login again, you should get an immediate error message (this means the next step should work), cancel out of this
    3. Try to login a third time, it should let you in.

    I have no confirmation that this works on the consoles, but I do have to do this from time to time on the PC.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Thanks for the info but I've tried something similar to that already since I can't stop the login I'd try closing the game then restarting the login process and I experience the problem regardless.

    I'm having a similar problem. I could load my lvl35 DK, but it was horribly laggy. Logged him off and am now tryin to load my lvl36 sorc. It just sits on the screen that says "Requesting character load."

    Worked fine yesterday. This morning's server maintenance messed something up.

    I tried logging in with my VR15 NB I was using until a few minutes before the update. I got stuck at "Requesting character load", reset and tried again with the same result. I selected my VR16 and had no problem logging in. Tried several times and I'm still unable to login with my VR15.

    My VR15 is at Wayrest Outlaw Refuge.

    Well, so far I've successfully loaded 2 of the 3 characters I've tried. My lvl36 sorc won't load. I haven't tried my other 4 characters yet.

    Are the characters you can't load logged out in Cyrodiil or Rawkla or other heavily populated area?

    I would not consider an outlaw refuge to be all that busy. Although, you can log out of a character in the refuge, then log back in to find the character outside of the refuge. Still Sentinal is not all that busy. Vulkhel Guard can be busy, but I have never heard of anyone having issues logging into that city.

    Dunno if it helps but hours after maintenance complete I logged in(Xbox na) and the "server will be closing in 10 minutes for maintenance" message came up. Was thinking maybe an emergency patch. Then it crashed, started back up, and was able to play.

    I can load my character, and can travel to SOME locations, but when i attempt to shrine back into Coldharbour to continue questing I get an infinite load screen. I've tried porting into CH from multiple wayshrines with the same result. I suspect this is much more widespread than just a few of our characters, but as was said, a lot of XBOX users don't come to these forums.
