Yesterday I buffed 50 building for my friend /Zotyo33/, and then I want to go my map and continue the game, the map not loading.
Since then I can not playing because my map is not loading.
I try these:
- Delete temp & cache
- Try another internet browser
- Windows update
- Reinstall flash player.
Please help me I can not play more than one day.
Thanks.
Hmm sounds like you already did the things I would normally suggest. But just in case...
You could look over the things mentioned here to see if you missed something, or forgot to tick (or untick) an important checkbox.
To rule out if it is a flash issue make sure that if you normally use Internet Explorer or Firefox, you try Chrome instead (or vice versa). Chrome uses its own internal flashplayer. Firefox and Internet Explorer both use the normal adobe flash player
Last thing I can think of is trying to flush your local dns cache, check step 5 in this post (this only works if dns is indeed the problem, and your internet provider was updated with the correct dns already)
Otherwise your only bet is to contact Support via the contact form on this page and explain to them what the problem is exactly (try to describe the screen you are staring at while you decide that the map isn't loading) and list the steps you already tried.
What happens when it doesn't load?
Is it just blue or a white screen, or do you also see message such as "server zone lockout"?
I've had 1 server be very sticky on loading recently, white background/splash screen and the loading bar hardly moves. Normally rectifies after a long wait or a couple of refreshes.
One other thing, if by chance you are logging in via Fakebook, make sure it is looking at the correct server.
I see this page, when I'm logged in, then Click the "PLAY NOW" button:

I use Google Chrome and Internet explorer and I see the same thing in both cases.
Sometimes it take a while for the game to load, I have sometimes had to wait up to 10min before the island loads.
Cukor, the blue background tends to indicate a problem with Flash loading the data, not always but unlike the white screen, it shows that it has got so far into the loading process. The white one is a real pain to diagnose, as many things can cause that.
I would suggest clearing out your Flash cache (should be a flash settings icon in Control Panel), and clearing out your temp internet files etc.. won't harm.
Also check version, might even be worth using Adobe's Flash removal tool which will also get rid of any older versions that may still be hanging around and interfering, then installing a fresh version. Personally I'd recommend using Firefox, as Chrome's pepper flash seems rather buggy, and IE's vulnerabilities are of course legendary.
I wait 2 hours and nothing...
One other thing to try, right click on the screen and change the settings from hardware acceleration to software, or software to hardware, depending which is set at present.
Thanks for helping, but the problem is not my PC. I registered another char and it's working... I wrote the support...
I also have a member with the same problem. He cannot login after the last maintenance. So maybe a new bug in the game?
I hope the next maintenance solve the problem. The support team not answer my question...
Having same problem being stuck at that screen since just after maintenance. Friends also can't visit island so it's clearly a bug in game, not on my end.
After support asked for screen shots a couple days ago, haven't heard anything back so it would seem that it's either not being addressed or can't be fixed - I can only guess.
I think they're investigating, now it's weekend though so you hopefully will get a reply on Monday.
I hope the next maintenance solve the problem...
A bit late, and I hope you are already back in and playing. But here is a link to a few things you can try. Usually the first couple of things resolve loading issues. You can also try logging in with a different browser to see if the problem is browser related and then a different computer.
Of course, if you are still having no luck send a ticket to support, letting them know everything you have tried, although I hope you will be playing again before you get to this stage.
Hope it helps , and good luck :)
The maintenance has solved my problem... Thanks.
The problem exists. I'm stuck at the 'loading map' part of game loading for 24h.
Tried on 2 PCs and 3 browsers. System, browsers, Flash - all up to date. All temp folders cleared several times. No problems on different sites. Ticketed support but only got what seems an automated response.
Meanwhile 6 lev5 gold smelters and 3 lev6 gold mines are running unbuffed. The mines, which were pretty expensive, will collapse.
I've tried all ideas mentioned in this and other relevant threads.
Does anyone know a working fix?
If you have tried everything that is suggested in this thread, then it probably means it is an issue for support to sort out. Contact them here with as much detail as possible about the problem, and the steps you have taken to rectify at your end. They should be able to resolve the problem for you.
i can not visit you too... and support is not working on weekends...Quote:

No comments.
It'ss some problem with the server. robbomons island can be visited since the maintanance again. Same as CukorHUN reported...
The stuck "Loading map...", often with blocked visits from friends, has been reported on a number of fora worldwide for a while now. While they may well not all be connected something is definitely up and it's not all player-side.
Still worth trying the oft mentioned "Refresh, clear cache and cookies etc. etc.", if nothing else you can say you did it, but in some cases there really is something awry somewhere else.
i have problems With my map, it seems like is not loading 100% and the dos not start, my frinds in my guild cant visit my lend either, this has been ongoing for 4 day now, and support is extremly slow in this problem.
not fun at all:mad:
Hi i have done all this steps, and it did not helped me , the map is still "locked" and the members of my guild cant visit my land either??

Last time I sent screenshots to Support as requested but then heard nothing further. Several days later the problem only corrected itself after the following Maintenance. But, again, there was no explanation, no instruction how to avoid this in future, in short, no acknowledgement whatsoever from Support after asking for the screen shots.
This is clearly a major problem and likely tied to similar problems several months ago when the Move command was suspended. When players then complained about the length of time the Move command was not available, other players responded that it was better that way than to be locked out for a week. So here we are again - seems the problem was not fixed, and just as with Support's non-response to me 2 weeks ago, there has been no clear fix nor answer about such a major problem.
I can't load map right now... freezes on first page of getting to island. Does not get to 2nd.
I've now 2 guild members who are locked out of the game. Same problem as above. This problem must have yhe highest priority to fix. I hope they can find the problem soon.It's very annoying when you cannot play the game. Please respond BB to this post with an answer even if you have not found the problem.
I have tried off and on now for about 8 hours. No luck. My adobe updated yesterday... maybe that is part of issue.
sys : You have version 14,0,0,176 installed
well, I can load and play Zeus, not Sandy Cove... o well.
Len, what is odd for me is I can play on one server and not the other. Have you tried a different group/server?
edit: the reason I ask is because I now know it is PROBABLY NOT A PROBLEM ON MY END.

hmm... I just got on map for first time in several days. I guess their maintenance reset something. I hope the others also got in.
I was playing last night and moving a building around to make some space. Then nothing happened: the new spot looked as if it was about to be occupied but the building was still on its previous spot (like a garrison before transfer).
I reload the game, thinking it was a simple glitch, but have been unable to go any further than the blue screen with the tip of the day box.
I've tried 2 different computers (so it's not a matter of cache), 3 different browsers and no success.
The beauty is that my son has no problem accessing his own account from any computer...

Thanks Iolanthe!
It seems to be the "can't load my map" issue indeed.
It's still not loading btw even though from the same computer my son can easily load his account. When we try accessing my account from his, for buffs, it goes on and on and on without loading either.
My conclusion is that it has nothing to do with whatever computer I try accessing my account, it has more to do with a BB bug/server failure.
I've submitted a ticket but I'm going to miss on the gems today (7th day logging in a row) and I fear for the 6 months/1 year countdown as well :( I'm not even talking about the resources.
By any chance was the item you were moving a silo/ISh etc
Ie a gem item.
I have had the same, it creates a locked zone, which can be fixed by support, or the maintenance script apparently also fixes it.
Yes, absolutely: I was moving a silo when the glitch started. I can wait to log again but yet fear for the losses...Quote:

Credit is due: BB has unlocked my account caused by the bug that arises when moving (too often/much) a silo and was gracious enough to grant me the goodies received when logging in, which I couldn't claim when unable to access my account. Thanks, much appreciated!
