The loading screens are about 7 minutes long.. This occurs in BGs, open world Cyro, and when switching between zones.. I have enough time to wash my car and make a cup of coffee during the load screens which is nice!

    I remember that back when Imperial City launched. This might be a hardware issue. I think there were some optimizations in Summerset designed to speed up the loading process. It's possible that in your case, these enhancements backfired.

    The game is not broken... it still works.
    FYI - There is no such thing as 'night capping' in a world wide MMO.
    FYI - There was no paid Beta. When they launched the game the Beta was over, even if you don't think it was.
    FYI - It's B2P not F2P. There is a difference.
    FYI - It doesn't take any player skill to mash keys or buttons in this game. The ones that stay alive longer have the better internet connection and speed.
    FYI - The game is not broken, it still works. It just has 'bugs' that need to be fixed.
    Balance is a "Bad" thing.

    Example: There were hundreds of Jedi and only two Sith in Star Wars. The Jedi wanted, "Balance in the Force" and they got it. Now there are only two Jedi and two Sith.

    When I log into a character I generally go and do a chore like wash the dishes, sort the laundry or tidy up the room. By the time I am done the character has generally logged in. It is making me a better person!

    Your blaming the game for this?

    Dude, you're on the wrong forum. Get your ass over to Comcast and complain because this is definitely a broadband issue.

    "I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    Don't think its an internet problem, its local, it might be OS or hardware issues or it might be the game who is broken on his install Know that the computer I use at work hang for minutes if I copy a many gigabyte file just as an example.

    That mostly because everyone almost is logging into Summerset. The people in the zone the longer it will take. However, yes they are too long.

    It seems character specific for me. My bank characters and underdeveloped (though max level) characters get through the initial load and porting around just fine. The 4 toons with the most play time can take up to 5 min at the initial "requesting character load" and are most likely to have really long load times porting around. My DK in particular will have an endless load screen in BG twice a night, which never happens to my Templar or NB.

    Long loading times are often caused by addons, especially those constantly loading in a lot of data such as map and trade ones. Such problems with addons will also commonly occur after an update to the game because the addons themselves may not have been updated.

    That moment when ep has broken through the east and west inner postern and ad is breaking through the inner front door at ash... loading screen hits just as ad bursts through....fuuuuuuuuuu! Loading screen dies and I get booted to xbox dashboard. Spend 20 minutes logging back in and somehow... somehow by the hair on king emeric's chin dc is pushing both alliances out of ash. Can't bar swap or use any skills or mount but I can shield bash. I must have shield bashed half of ad back to nickel. Fun times.

    This is definitely the worst performance I've EVER experienced in any game. Since Summerset, I'm getting stutters, freezes and frequent crashes. It's never been this bad before.

    I'm really starting to regret my decision to stay on the EU server.

    I'm seeing some strange load screen times. Like 10,000 of my closest friends, I spent a few days farming dolmen in Alikir. There was a definite cycle of fast vs. slow load screens.

    Initial load in: 1 min
    next 5 dolmen: 2 seconds
    Dolmen 6: 3 minutes (basically missed a dolmen)
    next 5 dolmen: 2 sconds
    Dolmen 12: 3 minutes
    next 5 dolmen: 2 seconds

    etc.

    Every 6th dolmen or so was an extended load screen where I'd miss the next 1 or 2 dolmen but the rest were nearly instant.
