Loading problem here as well since yesterday. Spent all day trying to play and nothing, not even as I write..

I'm on an iPhone 5c, latest update on the iOS, latest update of the chess app. This problem does NOT seem related to the updates I made more than a few days ago. Had been playing fine until yesterday

Igual aquí, la última versión no deja cargar ninguna partida, está pasando hace como 3 o 4 días atrás.

Looking forward to the fix - these things happen time to time so I don't get why so many people are losing their sh*t

THEY HAVE GIVEN PLENTY OF FEEDBACK.

they have said they are working on the issue, and have appealed for as much info as possible. One admin said the problem SHOULD be resolved within 24 hours.

This is a crazy issue, but here is the explanation:

The reason that some iOS devices are unable to connect to live chess games is because of a limit in 32bit devices which cannot handle gameIDs above 2,147,483,647. So, literally, once we hit more than 2 billion games, older iOS devices fail to interpret that number! This was obviously an unforeseen bug that was nearly impossible to anticipate and we apologize for the frustration. We are currently working on a fix and should have it resolved within 48 hours.

Thanks!

 It'll be back when its back - if they have a to rebuild a server it could take them a couple days. Unless they run it on a backed up virtual server then it would take less than a day.

Have some patience!!!

Thanks Erik! As long as you guys keep us informed, I'm sure the panic attacks can be reduced to a minimum ;)

Keep up the good work, I know I love using chess.com's platform! Hope it's resolved soon.

EDIT: Maybe you guys can fix us addicts without a membership with a few free tactics to keep us entertained in the meantime? I know I wouldn't mind ;) Cheers!

Game is not loading. It struck at loading. Anyone have an idea when it will be resolved.

Update the app. If you are on 3.6.14 or higher, the problem should be fixed. If you are on that version and still have issues, contact @Alex
