Stuck on "checking update"

I’ve been stuck on this screen for hours. Last night everything was working perfectly. Is this happening to anyone? Problems with servers?

I’ve the same problem. I also uninstall and reinstall it again but it is always stuck on “checking update” screen. Yesterday I had some problem updating the FS to the last version released, but at the end I fix it. Today there no way to move on from the checking update screen.

Same here, if I disconnect the internet the game loads in offline mode but I’m unable to access the marketplace or any online functionality.

Hi, I’m in the same condition,
I was going mad trying to figure out what’s going on, at least It’s not just me, must be some network issue with MS.

This evening for some reason FS is loading saying unable to locate internet connection so I’ve had the choice between ‘Safe mode’ and ‘normal mode’.

My internet is fine and have never seen this problem before.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

Oh, I just got through it! :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m not trying to blame. I’m trying to problem solve. Since that is the culprit 95% of the reports we get.

Where does that % come from and where are your facts for saying that, or is it a guess?
My problems are plentiful and NEVER caused by the community folder which has always been empty. If you are going to post percentages then back them up with some facts as I reckon thats a guess and I could just as easily state that 95% of the problems are not connected with the community folder, but I won’t because I have nothing to support the THEORY !
