Also having this issue since patch and only the initial load. Once you are in the game and even exiting to the character select screen from in game is normal load times.
Initially takes over a minute from clicking play on the UBI launcher for the Easy anti cheat to even start loading
Then that blue bar finishes and it pauses for 20 seconds
Then another minute at a black screen before the logos start appearing, then another 2 minutes at the orange connecting circle before it even shows the percentage numbers, which occasionally freezes for a few seconds then continues to rotate until it finally starts showing the percentage.
Then first time loading the world same thing again, orange circle for another minute before percentage starts showing.
Once the game starts showing it’s percentages it loads normally.
Before the patch it was about 60-90 seconds for this whole process. Now over 5 minutes.
Edit. here is the dxidag you requested https://pastebin.com/L0ai5Bdt
Another agent with much longer loading times after this patch/server maintenance.
Loading times have at least tripled, long black screen before the logos when this used to load pretty fast and connecting now takes ages.
8700k @ 4.7ghz
32GB DDR4 3ghz
2TB 860 Evo
2x 2080 Ti's (425.31)
Windows 10 1903 (18362.53)
Going to test out now, question does this happen every time you have tried to load and have you verified the files after the first run since the patch.
Edit: Ok it took me over 6 minutes from the EAC screen to gameplay
4:39:30 am Launch
4:41:30 am Enter black screen
4:42:15 am Warning screen (and logos)
4:45.20am Main home screen
4:46:12 In Game
Must say that the graphics do not look washed out anymore like they did from 5 April on, It' gone back to the rich colors that were at launch.
Running a verify files now and will test loading times again
Ok same amount of time after verifying files
5:04:18 am Start game (EAC)
5:10:49 In game (white house)
What a complete JOKE!!!!!
Time is money and I lose money when I play and I'm happy with the trade off but losing money waiting to play is the final straw. FFS I can install games fast than The Division 2 takes to load!!!!!!
Support have replied to my legal stuff and this now is going to cement my position.
What a complete JOKE Ubisoft, I did not pay to join the circus and feel like a monkey!!!!
pfft Time to give up on this piece of.... and go do some real life work. Enjoy your suffering Agents
