[Bug] Edit - Loading issues when fast traveling / teleporting - Xbox Series X [was: Frequent freezing when teleporting]

On Xbox Series X, more often than not, when teleporting to a town, the game defaults into a minuteslong loading screen before taking me to the location that I’m trying to travel away from.

This happens while trying to leave dungeons (e.g., Faceless Shrine), towns, and Helltides.

Leaving a dungeon via the “Leave dungeon” selection and then using teleport to get into a town seems to work.

Edit: I’m also taking damage while being qued for travelling. I had this happen at least twice during Helltides - cleared out all enemies, initiated travelling to town to empty my bags, and felt the vibration from the fiery rain that started after I initiated teleporting.
I know that I took damage as my partner and I play together, side-by-side and, on his screen, I could see that I took damage.

I’ve had this as well. Was doing dungeons with a friend and tried teleporting to town. Managed to make a burrito in the time it took for the load screen to change to…. Back in the dungeon. Managed to eat it by the time I was able to port to town. (Two consecutive 4+ minutes load times.)
So by the time I had ported to my friend he was in the boss room of the next dungeon.
Tried to port to town… new long load time. This time my friend managed to do a whole dungeon on his own before I was done with the load screen.
But yes, has happened when trying to port to Menestad and other random places too. Not found any clear pattern for how this is triggered. And same consol.

Happening here also on Xbox Series X.
This happens when zoning, teleporting to a new area, entering a dungeon, even walking out of a dungeon. Happens almost every time (95%) when teleporting to a waypoint. Using Exit Dungeon and teleporting to another player also can have this issue.

and to point out, zero issue on PC with this.

Updated with more current info.

Can confirm that this is happening to me as well on Xbox Series X. However, for me it does not happen every time, it just randomly happens when I teleport.

The loading issue is still an issue for me (and my partner) as of 18:20 EST today, 5/16.

The most recent situation led to a server disconnect for me and my partner, who I was playing with.

Here is what happened:
During a Helltide, I opened a chest of mysteries. As my inventory was full, I traveled to Kyovashad and sold most of it. I then used my town portal to travel back to the chest in the Helltide. After 3+ minutes of loading screen, I ended up back in Kyovashad. I checked my stash to see if the loot had transferred, but it wasn’t there. I then traveled to the chest via my partner’s portal. The loot was gone. We continued to open other chests. Three more chests in, we got disconnected from the server. Upon loading back in, the loot from the mysteries chest was in my temporary stash tab.
I checked our internet connection between these steps, and there were no issues.

I am having the same issue on Xbox Series X. Other online games work normally.

Adding in…when in a party sometimes when fast traveling or traveling to a location from the map takes several minutes. Game eventually just gives up, and pops me back at the spot i tried it from. Then it usually works the second time.

Same here I have a longer post that I’m trying to get everyone with series x issues to post too. Maybe we can get a response if we can get the thread long enough.

Edit: found a work around. It sucks, but if I log out to character select while on the zone line then back in I can pass that line.

Just a quick update. The game just reset on me and now I can get into the zones with waypoints to collect them. I also was able to make it into one of the legions that I haven’t been able to get into. (1am)

Nevermind it’s back to being unplayable this morning.

Having all the same issues here on Xbox Series X. Long load screens that just return me to my current location, rubberbanding when trying to cross into different zones (most often when leaving a major city), can’t portal to NM dungeons. Only time I seem to be able to consistently portal anywhere is to a location that is in an active Helltide. So that’s pretty much all I’ve been doing.

Same problem here. It really makes the game NOT FUN

Since the patch on Sunday evening (5/19), things have gone smoother for me. No more “endless” loading screens or invisible walls. Some loading times were a bit longer than usual, but I always ended up where I wanted to go. I hope others experienced the same.

Playing on Xbox series x with a friend and whenever we’re in a party together he gets stuck teleporting to any town takes about 5 mins to rectify

Update I spoke too soon. The loading bug is back. I guess I was just lucky yesterday.

I also had a repeat of the loading issue yesterday, hoping it had been fixed. Was in a helltide and died. Slightly long loading after dying, then when I went to port to town for selling/storing items I got the 4+ minutes load again. This also caused me to miss out on a unique item and probably a full inventory of other items that were gone by the time I came back. (And a Living Steel chest I was planning to open, because the helltide times out. So I was not pleased!)

My game has been running fine since the start of the season UNTIL today’s patch… now I’m also experiencing forever load screens whenever I try to teleport. Playing on ps4

Just updated on Series X, game is nigh unplayable with the infinite loads triggering by just about any transitions in the world.

After today’s (5/22) patch, I have time-out issues when trying to enter a dungeon (Glacial Fissure; load time: 10+ minutes). Previously, this only occurred when trying to travel to a town (from a dungeon, helltide, or a random location on the map).

As of right now stuck in a load screen on PC trying to teleport between the tree and Bear tribe. This has happened several times today and it really sucks

Just started happening to me as well on PS5. Was fine for the first hour and a half and now I can’t tp and have invisible walls in most towns. Pretty frustrating
