Waiting for Character to Create and Loading.....

Recommended Posts

Does anyone else have a problem with the load time to actually get into a server and play? Is there local video settings causing my game to take forever to load?

I'm new and attempting to learn. Which means I die more often than I probably should. I expect that, but when respawns take 5 to 10 minutes, I end up fearing the respawn more than death. And when I do end up getting into a server, I'm met with Pitch Black Night Time. Not playing the night game until I can actually survive day time for a while. So it is back to the loading or waiting for character screens while I play Angry Birds on the tablet....

I've tried servers with low ping, dropping my settings to minimum, Gozerian rituals to Zuul, nothing works..

Am I suffering alone needlessly?

This seems to be more of an issue with the latest patch. It wasn't nearly as bad in previous patches. I'm hoping the mod/exe is just doing more checks during the "Creating.." process to verify everything is working before actually loading your character into the game.

This is better then before!

I once waited 24 minuets login into a server this is really normal for the game i think source mods have even longer loading times ...

I'm having the same issue but after logging in and waiting for character to create a several of times it hasn't take much.
