For those who are stuck on "Waiting for Character Data"...

This is embarrassing, but I was in the same boat, until I noticed there were THREE files you needed to download, not 1.

This is also the case when you wait for ages, and spawn in the pre-deployment area (the middle of nowhere).

As soon as I downloaded the 2 larger files, instant load :blush:

I have the same problem, I've downloaded all 3 files and if I do spawn after waiting at "requesting character data from server" I spawn in an open field not being able to move :S
