    Load Time

    Has anyone else run into this issue? It seems after the patch that when I first execute to launch the game that I can go to my kitchen ground some coffee beans, place them into a french press, and I have some coffee. Once I return to the game with my fresh cup of coffee that game is still loading. What seems to be the issue here??

    Thank You.

    Do you have SSD? You will have faster loading times if the game is installed on SSD than a regular hard drive.

    Honestly, the load times are up 50 percent now - this on a top end system with all SSD and 32GB Ram. It's really noticeable and tedious.

    I have Division 2 on a NVMe SSD and the patch really screw the load times when you first boot, even to point you think it's crashed.

    This is true, but there is something after this patch. Mine is not on an SSD and it ws never more than 3-4 minutes total from the time I hit play till I was loaded outside the White House. Last night though every screen after the epilepsy/seizure warning was 10-15 minutes long. The 2 friends I was logging in to play with did Capital Hill Challenging during my screen where it said it was connecting to the server. That was just that one screen. AFter hitting select on my character it was at least another 5 minutes to get into the game. It wasn't my computer cause I was in I'm running at around 120 FPS, it's literally just the loading screens.

    It's like Anthem talked about it's long load screens and Ubisoft said Hold my Beer

    Load times have never been that great for me (my rig is all SSD, no mechanical drive). Even just opening the game seems to take awhile. Like, I'll launch the game and the little banner will come up with the blue loading bar, right. Then it goes away and nothing seems to happen for like 1-2 minutes before finally the game window comes up.

    We are aware of the PC loading times post TU2.1 and are working on a fix for this.
