Roblox game is taking ages to load and gets stuck on the loading screen

The roblox player can be stuck like this for no apparent reason.

Specs:

laptop rtx3070ti gpu
laptop Intel I7 12th gen cpu

I believe it is only caused when I am on a discord call or have opened and closed Roblox multiple times so is on and off.

Edit: Due to the nature of this bug it’s proving quite hard to find reproduction steps. However I believe it occurs when doing high memory / network usage tasks on chrome which get prioritized over roblox because when launching on the website the RobloxPlayerBeta.exe becomes a subsidiary application to chrome so gets bound by its parameters

Hey my previous post got token down sadly :frowning:
But here is why:


All active services are down. Just hang tight!

But why are all of the services down?

Thats caused by internal server errors and crashes. I’m not a worker there to know exactly but usually its because of how Roblox’s infrastructure was made in previous years. Its like “too late” ig to change that core infrastructure system.

This also can happen too. It’s a real problem

Hello, is still actively an issue for you?

It can be yes. However I have noticed it only happens when I am actively talking in a discord call.

Strange; I would not think that a voice transmission would be sufficient bandwidth to block progression of network traffic. How wide of an internet connection do you have? By chance, if you have performance stats up on your screen (while you are in game) do you see your ping increase during active transmission on discord? I’m assuming there’s no video streaming etc.
