I just upgraded a project from v. 4.9.0 to v.6.1.x. I am trying to fix the differences in the API, but I have difficulties to something as simple as the current node in a master-page. I have looked in the documentation, but it seem...ummm how to put it, lacking ;)
I have looked at Umbraco.Core.ApplicationContext.Current.Services.ContentService but I can't seem to find anything which will return the current node?
I just saw that I could still use umbraco.NodeFactory.Node.GetCurrent() (There was an error, which I mistakenly thought was this line). It just feels wrong to use the old NodeFactory, when there is the new ContentService API.
I believe it is still possible - but probably deprecated. Personally, I always wrap something special in a Macro. If you would wrap it in a Macro, you would get to use the provided property "CurrentPage" or "Model" to access the current Node. I'm sure one of those two will work.

Where are you trying to load the current node? I believe that in a razor script, you can use CurrentPage to get the current node.
It was in a master-page and not a Razor file.

I seems like you basically don't have the current context from outside of a macro, masterpage, usercontrol etc.
If you don't have access to the current node you can do that with the new API :
Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper umbracoHelper = new Umbraco.Web.UmbracoHelper(UmbracoContext.Current);
and "umbracoHelper.AssignedContentItem" is your current node as a IPublishedContent
