Fast Load NPC.

Hi all. Are there anything you can do so the game loads NPC's faster than normal.
I sit on a 100/100 connection that normally works very well.
But the NPC ingame load so slow that I always bump into them, and it's really annoying :)

So are there anything I can do? Or is it all a server thing I can do anything about?

    This might have a lot more to do with your CPU, than your connection. It sounds like your machine isn't rendering them quickly enough, which is an issue I've had with old equipment before.

    I, in general, run the game with 60+ FPS.
    Can it still be that?

    Same thing happens to me.

    I can ride from the wayshrine at Mournhold (Deshaan) out ot the Undaunted camp and it takes quite a few seconds from the quest givers to 'resolve' on the screen so I can interface with them.

    Also at times, in busy areas such as Vulkhel Guard or Gratwood, even the shrubbery takes ages to appear and I can get snagged on it.

    My PC is a newish high spec CPU, RAM is abundant and graphics card is GeForce 1070.

    Probably the internet's fault. :( Nothing I can do about that. It can't get any faster.

    EDIT: Typo fixed.

    I just upgraded to 8700K and 64GB (from 3570K and 32GB). I'm not sure if it's the additional cores or the memory but the stuttering I was getting for a few seconds every time I went through a wayshrine is gone.

    What kind of hard drive do you have? When I was playing on a 6 year old budget pc and upgraded my hard drive to an SSD it got rid of the issue, and I haven't had the issue at all on my new pc also with SSDs.

    That could be a solution. The OS is on the SSD and the game is on a standard platter HDD.

    Would be nice if there was an easy way to transfer it to the SSD, but I bought teh game through Steam so it ended up in the default and i am not too keen on downloading the game again. Just takes ages.

    Steam now supports moving a game to a different hard drive. Setup a second library and you can choose a option to move it.
