Star Citizen Infinite Loading Screen 4.4
Yes, the infinite loading screen bug is still haunting Star Citizen as of version 4.4 and it’s as exasperating as ever. Sometimes you launch into the persistent universe, bracing yourself for interstellar adventure, and endless “Loading…”.
On a post shared on X, Torgoth (@TorgothEbon) shared his frustration with a technical issue in Star Citizen. After encountering an infinite loading screen and failing various troubleshooting methods, he humorously remarked that it might be a while before he can play, possibly not until the next patch.
This isn’t just a quick moment. It can stretch on for ages, sometimes never resolving, which leaves many pilots staring at their screens wondering if the universe itself is conspiring against them. Players most often run into this right after leaving the PU as part of a party, after messy party-forming attempts, or following the risky “log out in ship bed” move (which, at this point, feels more like rolling dice than a planned action).
How To Fix Infinite Loading Screen in Star Citizen?
If you're stuck here, a few things are worth trying before you raise a support ticket:
-
If you logged out on a ship (or just before the bug), ask a friend still in the server to blow up your ship. It’s weirdly effective. The theory is, destroying your “spawning asset” removes the bugged anchor, letting you load back in cleanly .
-
Restart both your router and modem. It’s a classic for a reason.
-
Disable your other networks, or if you don’t have one, try enabling one for a short test. If you’re on NordVPN, try toggling off “Web Protection.”
-
Shut down all non-essential programs even that sneaky Discord overlay has been known to mess up games here and there.
