Hi, It takes a 1min 50secs to load the game on my Core i7 12700k, with Samsung 970 EVO NVME ssd's and 32GB ram... the PC is basically idling along.. I suspect it is network related, but any help would be appreciated. Cheers, AP
Was it ever different for you? I just checked, it took 1:45 for the game to load from click in Steam to the game's main menu, and I'd say it was always like that.
remember you are going through a few logins ; security options and loading your profile and various webpages etc when the game starts ; if you watch in taskmanager you can see the game go up in steps and each is at a point of some internet use Andi
