SLOOOOOW loading levels
This is the slowest loading game I have ever played. When I get killed on a level and then reload from the last saved, it takes forever! I mean I keep a magazine here to look at while it loads.
I am very suprised to not see anybody else complaining about it. Or is it just my PC? I have a good system: P3.06HT, 784 RAM, 7200 RPM SATA HD. I defragged yesterday and it is still slow. I was hoping a patch might be able to improve it. |

Re: SLOOOOOW loading levels
Did you turn the Vsync option off, because that really improves the loading times?

Re: SLOOOOOW loading levels
my computer (P4 cpu 3.0) takes 1 min 20 seconds to re-load with vsync on or off...Perhaps that is just the normal time for loading all the many many things that are needed. there is a lot of ground stuff to load...

Re: SLOOOOOW loading levels
Mine was about 1:20 and with Vsync off it is about 20 sec. Much improved.

Re: SLOOOOOW loading levels
I think I remember seeing a post somewhere that GBX id'ed the slow loading issue is attibuted to VSYNC whether or not you had the item checked. Systems are different and they will act that way. Meaning they have identified that unchecking it will work for some and not others. I also saw somewhere that it will be addressed in the next patch. Search the forums because this is from memory.
Personally, mine was loading at about 1 to 1.5 mins. I feared to reload the chkpt due to the load time. Unchecking VSYNC cut the load time to 5-10 seconds. 3ghz p4 HT 1 gig ram Ati radeon 9800pro. Last edited by sgandy1; March 28th, 2005 at 10:00 AM. |
