Never-ending Black Screen on Xbox Series X

  • Over the last couple months, every time I play there is a point where I get stuck on the black screen and it never loads. I have waited 5 minutes at some points and never came back. I have to fully close the game and restart. This is very frustrating, especially during PVP. Not only do I lose my full pocket of supplies, I also miss key points in battles. It’s been happening to my friends too. Has there been any news on this? I hope this gets fixed asap. Anyone else having this problem?

  • Unfortunately, it's not just the Series X. It's everyone...low spec PCs, OG Xbox One, Series S and X, all the way up to multi-thousand dollar gaming rigs on gig speed internet. It's a bug, and it's absolutely game breaking. The only fix seems to be leaving the game and coming back...and even then it may just be temporary.

    I wonder if the bug has roots in their "fix" to prevent backspawns. If it does, I'd gladly take a galleon full of backspawners to get rid of this game breaking bug.

  • Doesn't happen all the time for me but I've had it happen maybe a handful of times over the last 6 months. It never lasts 5 minutes, might be 2 minutes or less. I agree it can be frustrating though.

  • I'm not on Xbox, but the Black screens since this last patch have been pretty bad again.
    Sometimes i get the usual blackscreen & other times i get stuck for 3-5 minutes.
