When I try to play a game, it comes up with the "ROBLOX is updating, please wait". The separate window that comes up, however, gets stuck RIGHT near the end. It does that from periods of five minutes to over an hour. If I exit out of the updating screen, and the bar, when I try to replay, it comes up with just the loading box and the red loading bit. It only seems to be this game, though : http://www.roblox.com/Warrior-Cats-NEW-Lake-Territory-place?id=19202577
Anyone have an idea what's going on?

Also, it tends to take AGES to load when it's not updating. It's mainly that game, but, it does happen to other games occasionally.

Same thing use to happen to me. All I did was be patient and waited like 2 days. For some odd reason, it stopped doing that to me like 3 months ago. Not sure why but I am lucky that it happened to me.

Tips:
Dont close the Roblox update page. It will unlikely to open up again because it is
already updating. (You won't get the updated version for a while)

Never turn off your computer, just turn on sleep mode while updating.

DO NOT reinstall Roblox. No matter how many times you do it, it will still not work and will make everything harder.

I was going on one of my favorite games then it says "ROBLOX is updating please wait. So of course I think it's only going to be for a few seconds but then I end up waiting for 4 hours!!! BUT IT STILL DOESN'T UPDATE!!! So I leave it on for the night... STILL ISN'T UPDATED! So I hit cancel and then I re-try thinking it will be faster. I was still like the last one! I really want to play a game but I have to wait for it to update. Which obviously it won't. Can someone please help me!!??!!??

I hate this when it happens it's happening to me right now. I've literally waited for 4 days... FOUR DAYS. And it still doesn't work. So don't listen to Eric all mighty saying "Only wait 2 days blah blah blah..." It won't update, I guess just wait for the next update to play I'm not sure.

Okay, I've figured this one out. (Windows)
First open Control Panel.
Next go to Uninstall a Program.
Scroll down to find ROBLOX Player.
Click on it, then press uninstall.
Once it has uninstalled, go to play a game on ROBLOX again.
A screen will come up explaining how to install.
Install ROBLOX, then play a game. It should work

Same happend to me right now cause when im trying to join a game it says ''Roblox is updating. Please wait''im like ok letswait but when i waited for 5-10 minutes i re-uploaded the page and then i tryed to play again and same thing ''Roblox is updating.Please wait''. Like i actually think Avast is trying to stop Roblox because first of all Avast thinks Roblox is a virus and i think is not even a virus.Well im going find Avast and uninstall it becuase im done and im sick of this.
