Can't see anything
Most likely you need to wait until Stage 4 finishes downloading and installing.
This was reported in the Gameplay/Technical Issues & Bugs forums last week.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

OK, thank you for the quick response. I'm about 80% through Stage 3, so hopefully I'll be able to play soon.

Welcome to the game. Yeah, the staged downloading is a fairly new feature, so it's not surprising that a bug popped up in it. It used to be that you had to install and update the entire game to play at all, and with how large it's become adding the staged approach for new installs makes sense.

Hi Understray,
Are you getting that screen when you are in the Tutorial, or when you are attempting to enter Atlas Park or Mercy Island?
All the best,

It shows that someone defeated a Shivan so I'm guessing in the tutorial, and he is still level 1, so not ready to leave yet.
It also has the circle at the left of the Menu window being totally black, which would imply it's in the Tutorial and they haven't gotten far enough in to make the choice as to whether to be a Hero or a Villain.

All I get is this.

I don't even know what my character looks like. :<
