It absolutely is on Roblox’s end. I’m having a similar issue with not being able to join any game cause it’s stuck on “joining server” , console says error 429, which they said it was patched a few days ago but apparently it was not, and instead of showing the error message it now just keeps you in joining server loop.

HTTP error 429 is probably due to your client sending too many requests to Roblox endpoints, so those said endpoints refuse to reply to the inquiry your client makes (aka connecting to the game), not a segmentation fault !
Those two issues seem to be quite unrelated so far
Note that 429 can also be on their end: the server denies requests directly (with no spam on your end). In all cases, error 429 is indeed on their end, as either they accidentally make the client spam requests, OR their endpoint denies requests too quickly. Either way, that’s not a you issue immediately.
The segmentation fault issue (0xc0000005) generally is due to the process trying to access memory addresses it isn’t supposed to, it’s generally due to the program itself, but sometimes other programs (like antiviruses, and even drivers) may cause the issue without knowing. I do agree though, that if it only happens with Roblox, it’s probably an issue from there.
Ah I see now. Was assuming these were related due to both of these problems likely stimming from the same updates , as 429 started 3 days after 1 update, then it was supposedly patched and worked for a day, but the “silent” 429 started after the latest update , which was the same time people started reporting not being able to open Roblox. Really hope they are working on this cause this does seem kinda big or what I would classify as critical since people aren’t able to access Roblox games.

I began experiencing this at 4:30pm BST today.
Obviously tried all the obvious troubleshooting (appdata deletion, uninstall, win update)
Haven’t seen this issue for a few years thats for sure
EDIT: Lots of reports of this on reddit too.

It would be lovely if you could all detail the following :
-
OS version (On windows, do Win+R, type
winverand press enter, a popup will show you basic windows information) -
CPU reference
-
GPU reference (if any)
-
Motherboard reference (if any)
-
RAM amount
-
SSD/HDD reference(s) (if any)
-
Antivirus (if any)
Could anyone get an admin to look into this? This is most likely a version issue with some devices having specs that causes the problem
Also just a hunch, but i’m guessing it might be something with Windows 11 versions. To anyone experiencing this plz slide the versions and maybe we can find similar problems

we should try something to get this post above all the other ones (i’ve barely been around the DevForum i most of the time just download cool stuff i find in the resource page)
or maybe try pinging an active Roblox Developer, but i don’t know any

same here, roblox player won’t launch, but roblox studio works perfectly.
I’ve tried previous version, it works for me, so it’s definitely problems about new version at May 1st.
if it’s hyperion update then they should at least tell us what’s causing it, instead of sliently doing nothing

There’s no point. I’ll just get directed to constant automation so it’s better for engineers to see this here. There has been instances where this has happened albeit for not a while but it does happen and it’s on their end.
