Acquiring bulk data issue

Since a day or two ago, anytime I log into Singularity, my client has to spend a couple of minutes "acquiring bulk data". I've tried clearing my cache settings, to no avail. This is happening to me on two different computers, and also at least one other player I spoke to on the test server confirmed that it's happening to him as well.

Is there any other way to fix, or work-around this issue?

Thanks!

After today's Downtime, the issue seems to have been resolved.

For future reference, no, there isn't a ton you can do about that.

Great. I'm having the same problem today. It was okay the day before...

Regarding the original problem: A setting was set incorrectly on Friday, when updating the test server and it was fixed on Monday. Oops

Regarding the problem since yesterday: The client cache remembered somehow that there was a problem in the past (probably the problem from the weekend) and does not believe that everything is fixed and fails to recognize the update from yesterday. Workaround: Clear the client cache through the ESC menu.

Sorry for these problems.

Thanks for the update!

I tried clearing the cache again a few days ago and it seemed to resolve the issue, as you mentioned.
