Huge amount of time of loading a game.

[_Maou_]

I am just curious if i'm the only one,but ever since alpha test i had a huge time of loading a game in wows,i mean i would be able to control my ship after 30-40 seconds have passed(at first),and lately(since the 0.3.1 update it got even higher .Now i get into a game after 1-2 min have passed and i'm usualy already being shot at somebody or i don't have the time to relocate at the side where i would like to go(i'm usually driving bb's) and even a few times i was already dead or half dead by the time the game finally loaded.I'm just curious if i'm the only one or is that a common thing because of this i don't have the will anymore to play the game,i don't see a point in playing the game if by the time i get in i'm somebody's hp bagg

I know that feeling. I have same problem sometimes I am already dead before game loads. And when it is loaded I just see my sinking ship.

I am sure they can optimize the game some, but part of the problem is your hardware, I know it is not popular to say, but get a SSD.

Same, game take ages to load

[Userext]

0.3.0 was good there was no problem

The game looks are averageat best, so is size of maps. There is no reson for such a long loading time, except for game being BETA. Get SSD? LOL

ssd has nothing to do with it, i think load times are excessive too, and i only got fast ssd's in my system. other games/WOT loads very fast, but this feels like slowmotion. i do manage to enter the maps on start, but only 0-5 sec before game starts, which makes it hard to get any kind of teamwork going.

If you want a quick solution, getting an SSD is the right one. Obviously it is not a RAM problem. Otherwise you (and unfortunately me, too) have to wait.

I have seen people complaining that they have problems loading maps even with ssd and quite good hardware so if that's true(not their fault) then this may be fixed before open beta. If someone have already decent hardware to run this game on medium or so then he may not want to buy something new just for one game that doesn't work correctly in cbt. Apart from that SSD is always a good idea if your hdd is the problem(If other games also have long loading time and so on).

Same here, As soon as 0.3.1 hit on my first battle of the day I would load in a couple of minutes after it started. All battles after that I'm only a few seconds after the start but given that before the patch I would never load in after the start, something changed for the worse

I also been having problems with loading the game. Its normally started alr5eady by the time I get in. And I do run with SSD

[Stigits]

I also run with SSD and have the same problem, you can see the other ship's moving on the mini map before you enter..

SSD is not the answer, I have just bought a new gaming PC with GTX gfx and SSD dive.

[richie_b]

One of my major problems is having this installed on my SSD.  I am always in map before end of countdown.  It is unusual to see most of the ships active within 90 seconds.  Which quite often means sailing in circles.  With a 30 second countdown, that means a lot of machines are taking 2 mins to log in.  Which really is very rubbish indeed.
It is another random factor and another significant one.  Most unwelcome....

freshly set up OS ( so no trash on it ), ssd, stable 60-80 fps ingame and i load slower than the dude next to me ( lan ) on his crappy laptop that gets 20-25fps.

 

i5 hashwell slightly OC, gtx phantom 970, i doubt its my hardware bro.

[MrDane]

Well, my system is nothing special and it loads fine on it, I am in before the battle starts.

 

Windows 7.1

i5 3770

16GB RAM

SSD

GTX770

Well loading times after 3.1 have been increased quite a bit

before 3.1 i was getting into battle quite fast sometimes in space of the 30 sec cooldown.

From what i notice the BIG loading time which for my system (mind you it's an avarage laptop) takes from 45 - 90 secs

after that battle is over and i get the same map again the loading time is significant lower were i can load juuuust slight after the battle or just in time were the counter reaches 0.

 

i think it has to do with the data files and how they are being read by the game? not sure about it though just my overall notice

[shrapnel_bait]

Got the same problem, in 3.0 I was getting into battle roughly 10 seconds before the timer ran down, now with 3.1 I don't get into battle until at least 30 seconds after the battle begins, that 30 seconds may not mean much to a destroyer or cruiser driver but to a battleship driver, especially in the lower tiers, it could have a real serious effect on your battle outcome.

[Bryghtblade]

I've got an old Acer aspire 8935g and my loading time from when the map appears to getting in can be anywhere from 30 to 90 seconds and usually around the 45 mark. however it dosn't happen on the Co-op just the Random.

[beercrazy]

got the same problem

before 3.1 all was fine and now it takes forever to load

I play mostly in a division of 3 players and the other 2 always load before me

 

this needs sorting before open beta or they will lose players who will feel there computers are not good enough for the game or will get so fed up of finally getting into the game to find on the smaller maps the enemy bb already firing at them

 

[Grimdorf]

I really hope the devs are working on optimising the loading times, both in the dock (really bad when first logging in) and battle loading (again really bad on first game, somewhat better after that but still iffy)

 

Its an issue that I think could limit the games appeal for many people as it does get irritating to frequently get into a battle after its started.

[still_guns]

This has been a problem since 3.1 came out for me. Before, I would often see the countdown timer on repeat maps. Now I never see it, always starting at least 25 seconds after everyone else.

[Raskeria]

I am sure they can optimize the game some, but part of the problem is your hardware, I know it is not popular to say, but get a SSD.

 

My game is installed on a normal 7200rpm hdd which has been dieing slowly for the past 2years, and I load in like 5-10sec when the players are selected, so ssd won't do anything if you ask me.

[Darzok]

I use to load real fast and all ways be in well before the round started then 3.0 hit and the load time hit hard form around 5-7 seconds max its now like 60+ after a few rounds it starts to go down to around 20-30.

 

There seems to be some kind of loading error as its so hit and miss.

[m4inbrain]

Same for me, the first couple of games i load really slow, starting only after the rest of my teammates already finished their turns (BBs) - but after that i get to see the timer. 

[Captain_Edwards]

Its data caching at fault. The game needs to cache the ship data before it can load the map. So if you have not loaded up X ship before the match it will take longer. Once you have ships cached its as quick as 3.0 before the problem arose.
