Incredibly long loading times

Greetings everyone,

Since the release of the game, I’ve got quite an annoying problem. 90% of the time, at the end of the “menu loading screen” (the one you get when pressing continue), my game will just hang-up. While this time, I can easily alt-tab, do whatever I want on my pc and my game shows between 1% and 2% of . After a random amount of time, usually a few minutes (more like 10-15), my game finally shows life and I can at last play the game.

My rig:

i7-7700k
16GB DDR4
RX 580 8GB with the latest drivers (fixed a memory leak issue)
Game is installed on a HDD and I use a Xbox one controller

Does anyone else have this issue? If yes, did you manage to find a workaround to fix it?

Yes, but not as often as you apparently do. Mine is on an SSD and usually loads very fast, but every once in awhile it takes for ever. (PC) Does the same on my Xbox 1 S as well.

Ryzen 7 1700x
16GB 2400 DDR4
RX 580 8GB OEM
Samsung 860 EVO SSD SATA

Nothing Over clocked, except turning down my GPU Temps.

Thanks for the reply, I didn’t overclock anything too. The fact it seems to happen also on your Xbox one S tells me it’s mostly the game that has some issues. I say mostly because it happens a lot on my HDD and much less on your SSD (could have nothing to do with though). Other than that, my framerates are extremely good, 0 lag or whatsoever*.

*Excepted Horizon live that keeps disconnecting if I stay too long in my house or the festival, lol.

Lill update, the recent patch didn’t fix this. It’s still a gamble I have to take whenever I launch the game :confused:

Spend $80 on a Samsung SSD. How can you want to have a gaming PC and sleep on SSD? Takes like ten seconds to load the game. Just timed it, 12 seconds from continue to loading your house.
