"Loading ECO database"

Avatar of rwv37

For the past, I don't know, week or so, the label (during a game) that usually says the name of the opening that's being used has just said "Loading ECO database" for me instead. I've noticed this sometimes in the past when I've had a laggy connection - it says that then switches to "Zorkenbubber Attack, Semi-Flotzin Gambit Accepted" or whatever, but usually it's too quick to notice (at least for me).

But this is different: It just says "Loading ECO database" and stays there indefinitely.

Has something changed about this? Has anyone else noticed it? I guess it might be something on my end, like a malware blocker update or something, but I'm wondering if it might be on chess.com's end.

Same here. Isn't anything we can do to fix it?

Avatar of JeremyFromEarth

Still an issue for me as well. I actually think it has been a detriment to my learning because I'm unable to quickly identify openings otherwise.

I changed my browser and now seems to work. Maybe if we clear all cache on our browser might fix on our default/favorite browser.

could it be we are playing a chess engine when it does this instead of a real person?

Lol, it's still doing this in late August. Are we sure chess.com is diligently trying to fix it?

Loading ECO database is a very good opening

I don't know why everyone's complaining. Somtimes it also says: Custom Position! How nice
