Summary: Whenever I try to start the game, either by joining or just starting from steam, it either does load at all and crashes (as not responding) or loads for 30-40mins. And once it finally starts, it lags a lot. Game Version: (A21 b316) OS/Version: (Windows) CPU Model: (Intel i7 7700K) System Memory: (32GB) GPU Model and VRAM: (nVidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti) Screen Resolution: (2560 x 1440) Video Settings: (Medium) - nothing else works for me, it lags too much Game mode: (MP host) - I tried hosting, but since I always load for forever, I now join a hosted multiplayer game Did you wipe old saves? (Yes) Did you start a new game? (Yes) Did you validate your files? (Yes) Are you using any mods? (No) EAC on or off? OFF but also tried with ON - same result Status: NEW Bug Description: Game does not load or loads for too long. Logs don't show errors. SOMETIMES when I crash the game (when it loads too long and windows says it's not responsive), after many retries it finally loads. When I unistalled the game completely, with removal of saves and even registry keys, it loaded fine, but then next time I loaded it, it was the same issue. I tried loading with many different variables but nothing helps. Detailed steps to reproduce the bug: 1) Start the game from steam - game hangs either in loading starting screen or when joining a game, usually on loading textures.
