you can only skip cutscenes as soon as the background level caching is done. Press and hold mousebutton. If a circle appears, you are ready to skip it, if not, wait a little longer.

make sure you enable precaching and did not skipped it on game load.

i don't know what you are talking about, i can't find any precaching in the settings...

You find it in the advanced graphic settings under miscellaneous --> preload shaders

There you can also preload shaders now. If you do this, you should be able to skip cutscenes after some few seconds. If still not, something is absolutely broen for you.

Does the game still run after the cutscenes?

the game runs, it's just that after the cutscenes there is a 10 second loading screen (so the game doesn't even load the game while cutscenes are playing). so i can't skip cutscenes. the preload doesn't work. just to be clear, i even bought a new pc and i was surprised to see that i still couldn't skip cutscnenes.

this is weird that he has to load afterwards the cutscene. i guess even after the ultra long intro one when you start a campaign.

This is either some kind of bug you unfortunetaly run into with 2 rigs, or both rigs have something particular in common which is causing this (same antivirus program and settings, same graphic card, both running Nvidia Experience, both running MSI Afterburner, eg.). Maybe you can think of something if you compare your both rigs.

Usually the game needs about 10-15 seconds into the cutscene time to load the level and then gives you the opportunity to skip it. No 2nd loading after the cutscene necessary for me, this I can tell you.

i don't have the same graphic card (but both of them are from nvidia) i don't use an anti virus, i am using geforce Experience but everyone with an invidia graphic card uses geforce Experience to update their drivers and i am not using MSI afterburner.

hm, and nothign else that matches both systems?

I have also a Nvidia and everything is fine. Though I never install Experience because Experience does use special settings from Nvidia depending on the game exe you run. This messed up with two games in the past (both were not starting properly), so I clearly decided never to use this manipulating software ever again.
You could try to deinstall it for a brief test, though the chances are slim that it is the culprit.

geforce Experience isn't the case, even on my old pc when geforce Experience wasn't installed it happened.

even then you should just keep in mind that this program can break games.

Other to that, I have actually no clue at he moment why your both rigs dont finish loading like it should whil cutscene is playing. Maybe someone else will speak up, hopefully.

did someone found out a salution yet?
