Why does The Division 2 take SEVEN MINUTES to load? | Forums

[jazix01]

Same issues here. Takes anywhere from 7 to 10 minutes to launch the game. In addition, performance is still quite low compared to when the game first launched. I went from a steady 70 fps down to the 40s. I had to enable resolution scaling to 85% to maintain 60 fps. I think both of these issues cropped up after that big patch where the raid was introduced, but I don't remember for sure.

Same here, I can go to the bathroom and also empty the dishwasher - all before the game has been loaded into the character screen.

This was never the issue at launch. At launch the game loaded fairly quick, like 1-2 minutes. I have the game on a SSD so that shouldn't be causing it.
So there has to be something that has been changed with all the patches that makes it take this long.

I also have same issue, it takes ages to get through 'connecting' phase. This has happened before after tidal basin update but was fixed, now its happening again. Usually it was around minute or so, now its up to 5 or so minutes.

Over 10 pages of people reporting the same problem, and I still don't see it as one of the items on their "The Division 2- Known Issues [Episode 1] - Updated July 26th" article yet. How's that even a thing?

Haven't seen a Ubi-rep comment in a few pages either, are they just sweeping this one under the rug?

Phew, I thought this issue might have been just starting for me alone, glad its not my PC...

But the fact that it doesnt even show up in task manager until 4 mins after you load the game is sad.

I play a game on my PC while waiting for division 2 to load up. I can get in a 5 minute duel in quake after double clicking the game icon.
