For many, this is just coming up as a loding screen and this is where the issue is stemming from. As you go through these methods this is where you will need to keep checking.
Yes, this is the most frutrating one but if even after you try all of these you still cannot get on then you will need to talk to Support at 2k. We have that linked there for you.
