The error has been around for a long time now but there seems to be little or none reaction from Bethesda regarding any universal solution or method. However, some players were lucky enough to discover various methods of resolving the problem on their own so make sure you follow the methods in this article and hopefully resolve the problem!
What Causes the Fallout 76 Stuck on Loading Screen Error?
The real causes for this problem are generally unknown and even Bethesda has avoided the answer to this question for a long time now. Still, two causes can be recognized and isolated:
Solution 1: Verify Integrity of Game Files
If you have purchased and installed the game via Steam, you have access to a great option which enabled you to check the game’s installation for missing or corrupt files and the utility will enable you to redownload and replace these files which can indeed solve many problems regarding the game. Make sure you try this out!
Solution 2: Edit the Game’s Preference File
There is an option to change in the game’s configuration file which will effectively uncap the framerate and hopefully cause the game to stop getting stuck at the loading screen each time players decide to switch servers. However, this method comes with an unwanted side-effect of stuttering frames which can be fixed by turning V-Sync on for the game. Note: If you notice that your framerate is stuttering or if the game doesn’t feel natural at all, you might want to consider forcing the game to use V-Sync using the tool provided by your graphics card manufacturer. Below you will find instructions on how to do it for NVIDIA and Radeon users!

Solution 3: Reinstall the Game
Reinstalling the game should be the last thing on the list but the good thing is everything is saved to your account and you won’t have to start all over again. If you have a good Internet connection or a strong PC, the game should be reinstalled in no time and the error should now cease to appear. You will need to download it again from Steam by locating in the Library and choose the Install button after right-clicking on it. If you own a physical copy, insert the disk and install it.
