Long loading time for the game and during fast travel.

[Korvan]

I'm getting long loading times fast travelling, except when fast travelling to a base where I last slept which is almost instant. The longest is when loading the game.

can confirm this
had some longer loading times and the game starts stuttering after ive loaded in
stuttering will go away after a minute

yes, it does that and more

Narvi's Forge has the longest loading time in the game for me, I don't know why; it's not bigger than any other places. we have bigger bases at other places, yet these other places load much quicker than Narvi's Forge or the Elven Quarter.

CompSci guy here. Only so much can be stored on RAM at a time, so a game will try to use that space efficiently, meaning places you have been recently will be in RAM and load quickly. When first booting a game or when loading into an area you haven't been in a while, all that information must be loaded from your hard drive to your RAM, and that can take some time, given that the game is procedurally generated and it also must load the locations of anything dropped on the ground. The only way to solve this if you're not a dev for the game is to install on a solid state hard drive, which has a faster read speed.

fun fact: ive cleared the Western Gate of everything (building related) and still its the same issue

ssd is still slow. it just does not work optimally. i had to wait on blockades, until the game loads what is relevant.

The more I've played the game, the longer my load times are. Installed on SSD and I have a really great PC. Sometimes the fast travel even gets stuck on an infinite load loop and I have to Alt+F4.

Same with my coop friends, they also sometimes get stuck on either slow or infinite load times when fast travelling.

this ^ could be a network issue. as much as i know they are still developing the network features.

Also experiencing really long load times between map sections and fast travelling.
