Community ManagerIt's not uncommon to see the downloading roster message even after manually downloading the latest roster update. It would be an issue if it hangs on this screen though. Normally, it will load to the main HUT menu shortly.
Yes, it is
If you manually download the latest roster update from the Roster menu, you NEVER see a message or experience a delay when starting HUT.
But that changed with yesterday's update
Just take a look at the two comparison videos I linked
Exactly matches my own experience.

septicon Would you be able to get a video of this? That's all I need to get this investigated. Just put it up somewhere it can be streamed. Thanks!
Sure. Took a while because I had some strange network problems here. It is in German, but shows the behavior. I first made sure that the last roster was downloaded then opened HUT twice.

I have manually downloaded the most recent roster update and get this message every time. Regardless, it's really only a problem if you can't get past this screen.
Compared to other issues, this is a minor one, but it’s still a problem.
It worked for over 265 days, now it takes almost 75 seconds to get into HUT. Why did the patch change something that wasn’t necessary?
And the fact that it used to work much faster and without a message is proven by my video, which was recorded back in October.
Thanks for trying to help me tell them cause I’ve been going at it since yesterday 🤦♂️
