thanks. because, yeah, i thought mad max (which was great!
) was quite satisfactory, technically...That is the first time I have seen it really hitch, but that is hardly a game breaker for me. I'll be more than fine. I just want that connection shit to get fixed.

I am going to stop streaming, lol.
I had no connectivity issues in like the half hour I played the game. It is probably some issue on Xbox Live.

Watched slasherjpc's stream and saw lots of dropped frames around explosions and shoot outs with a few guys on screen. Maybe a bad stream, I couldn't watch much more due he lost connection screan stopping the game
Also the animations looks very bad. I can't remember what they're like in JC2 but in this they look goofy.

Having played the game on PS4, these load times are lightning fast on PC. Wow.
Thanks for sharing. PC folks have nothing to worry about here.
Edit: These results are from SSD. Probably why it is so fast.
mad max was also pretty barren, little destruction, etc.

Why do people mention Bloodborne? Playing the old hunters DLC now and load times are 5 seconds minimum to 9 seconds maximum. Am I missing something here?
Bloodborne was really bad at launch.
The loading time could indicate a few things.
1. Dying hdd
2. Online connectivity issues.
3. Game not fully installed.
With the last item using Mordor goty as a comparison for loading times during installation.
Title screen
30 seconds installed
5 minutes partial install
Ingame
1 minute installed
9 minutes partial install. (including title screen time)

I wonder if the offline and online component is whats causing it.

Load times between deaths were a minute and change before in Bloodborne at launch.
You can get for 400$ (or lower) a way better pc, especially 2nd hand in a good condition.
I did that with a friend, got a great looking pc with a i5 3570k, GTX 680, 64 gb Samsung SSD, 1 tb WD 1 TB 7200rpm and 8 gb ram in a really nice case from a local guy at ebay Kleinanzeigen (like craigslist but in germany).
Get a console for the few exclusive (if you need to) but play 3rd party and everything else on pc, that's the way to go this gen.
It is. 100%. If it disconnects mid load it causes it to be crazy long. It's definitely having an affect.

Making me feel better, I have the new i5, but also the 970 and a new Sandisk SSD. I should be OK.

Dammit I hope there is something odd happening and it isn't every death that's anywhere near that long. Looking forward to this game but now I think I'm going to wait for the reviews on it. No way I'm putting up with load times even half that length if they're at all frequent.

why are you lol'ing that can be a reason why?

This gives my normal sandwich making time a boost, so now I can make a grilled cheese and tomato soup.. what's the problem?
At the developers incompetence.

I doubt my hdd is dying, and the game is fully installed. I bet that when Ill play offline without being connected to the internet with my ps4 the load times will still be bad.

Remember the Bloodborne enablers pre-patch?
"Just means you have to get good."
"Gives you time to reflect on your mistake."
"A design choice that reflects the game's punishing atmosphere."
I bet those guys are positively buoyant right now.

Ah, well I think its just a stupid oversight, the avalanche team aren't overall incompetent as their games are pretty impressive scale wise imo but yeah its silly

They are. I've been playing offline and loading times can be pretty harsh. Not 3 minute-terrible though, but harsh nontheless.

Played 4h on PS4 now. Loading times after death are 10-20 seconds. Video in the OP seems to be a bug. Had one loading screen that was really long (not sure what was different compared to the other loading screens).
Connecting to square servers is a far bigger issue than loading times

Batman AK is a shining example of how to do loadtimes, they considered everything for that game.

Same as my experience, longest load time encountered was about 2 mins after retrying a challenge. But in general all have been less than a minute barring the initial load.
It seems like they're wanting to send out challenges so it defaults to online mode but there is an offline mode which is buggy and still tries to connect. Hopefully not too hard to fix the offline mode to work properly and hopefully the online portion gets sorted quickly also.
Getting score attack style challenges isn't bad in concept seems like the implementation is just a bit off at the moment. They're definitely not barring you from the game offline.

You can play offline. It just constantly tries to update scores, etc. Also sorry I never returned to stream more. Thought I would have more time but wife and daughter got home so family time started. It's a super fun game so far though. I have a feeLing it will get 8s and 7s.
There is a offline mode which does not seem to work as intended though. It tries to log in to square servers every 10-15 minutes
A bit LTTP lol but here it is (PS4, patched):
Initial loading and logging in: ~2:10 minutes.
First death (just crashing a plane) loading: 46 seconds.
Second death loading after making some chaos: 35 seconds.
Third death loading after making even bigger chaos: 26 seconds.
Fast traveling to a close location loading: 31 seconds.
Fast traveling to a far location: 46 seconds.
Whatever this guy ran into, I couldn't replicate it.
