I also use Chrome and SetupVPN, and about 2 weeks ago, there was a time where I kept getting a black screen instead of the little green infantry guy start page. I tried all kinds of stuff--logging in and out of VPN, checking for updates to my computer and browser, disconnecting/connecting to, different servers in SetupVPN, and eventually, after about hour of my panicked fiddling, the game loaded normally.

I still get stuck on the black screen occasionally, and I'm not sure, but I feel like the problem is a slow connection. So now, what I do is some combination of:

a) in Chrome, refresh the page (and wait some more, maybe go do something else for a few minutes)

b) in SetupVPN, disconnect from one free Japan server and try reconnecting to a different one on the list. (Sometimes I'll try connecting to a different country for a little while, too--I feel like that either shakes things up, or else it kills enough time that the Japan servers get better.)
